Well, I'm finally ready to start. After dropping my very first $50 deposit at paradise and then depositing another $50 I'm at $100, right back where I started. I've cashed out to neteller, getting a $20 bonus as a first time cashout. Now all that remains is to receive my $120 and start whoring casino's like a madman.

I plan to do the standard planetluck then starluck etc. I was wondering though does anyone have any tips?

Would it be worth it to memorize basic strategy so that I can play through hands quicker by not looking at a chart or is the time that I'd gain be negligible?

Thanks.
Currently at UB playing $50 NLHE 6max.
Bankroll: ~$1900 (Almost BR'ed for 100NL.)

You will waste time trying to learn the charts. By using the charts you will pick up on how to play it best as you go.

Keep the bets low ($2 would be good). This means it will take longer to clear, but it also reduces variance and limits the possibility of busting out.

Casino on Net is probably the best one since you can deposit, get the bonus showing up in your account and then immediately cash out your deposit. Once you have your money back in your hands, you can go back and play with the bonus money risk free.

Be nice to CasinoOnNet -- they offer a couple bonuses every month.
I'm a know-it-all.




No, really.

Well I just finished Starluck. Even though I was min wagering, the time really flew by. I think I did it in about 3 hours ($33.33/hour). For most of the session I was actually up $40 but near the end the dealer kept getting blackjack every other hand. I finished $.50 up plus my bonus for a net gain of $100.50. When the 24 hour wait to withdraw is up I hope to do the same at Planetluck.

Starting BR:$120
StarLuck:+$100.50
Current BR:$220.50

Ok I'm on a roll now. Just finished the Planetluck casino up $33 on top of my $100 bonus. After that I went through William Hill. I finished down $30 there I was getting horrible cards and whenever I got good ones deal either made a push or beat me. So I only made $50 of the $80 bonus there. So in summary.

Starting BR:$120
Starluck:+$100
Planetluck:+$133
William Hill:+$50
Current BR:$403

Is this really as easy as it seems?

Are the casinos merely hoping that people lose track of responsibility and start blowing their bank?

pretty much.

Those bonuses are designed to attract customers who will rebuy after losing it all over a few weeks.
gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

It happened to me once. One casino got their money back from me, lol. But I can see where people can/have gone worse.

Good job on the whores, it gets fun when you build a nice roll and can do some of the bigger ones. It's more thrilling than monotanous to me now.
