well i started with Starluck last night and deposited $100 using their igm/pay-pro feature. after reading the t&c's they were offering an additional 20% if u did ur first deposit using igm, so i did. Total starting balance was $220 and i had to wager $1980 before withdrawal. i played for about an hour and 20 mins. betting $1 single handed. i will finish this site tonight and then on to its sister site Planetluck.

Just completed Starluck this Sunday. Betting $1.00 until i wagered $1200 of the $1980, then bumped up my bet to $2 a hand for the remaining wagers. Once i did that it went quite fast, i stopped after an hour or so little over and talked with Live Help to see where i stood, to my amazement they said i have met the wagering requirement, which leads me to believe i went well over. At that very moment i was @ $187.50 so a profit of $87.50 not bad. I decided to play a little bit longer to see if i could get that up to $200, i know i know greedy but i was running fairly good at that moment, plus i was gonna stop as soon as i hit $175-. I stopped once i hit $202.50 so i am waiting till i get home and the 24 hr. requirement to wait should be over and NEXT is Planetluck!!!!
Starluck $100 ---> $202.50= +$102.50

Every single dollar you put on a blackjack table is a -EV bet. Forgetting this fact is VERY VERY VERY -EV.

yes i know... this is great advice Lefou!!! but I was willing to lose that $12.50 difference to get to $200... i would've still been very happy with $175... newbies, adhere to Lefou's advice- i was in a situational call in which i was ready to deal with the -EV of greed!!!
P.S- i'm a little scared now to continue casino whoring, cause that would constitute Deposits and then withdrawals to neteller, but with everything that's going on is this -EV??? just when im getting the hang of making great money on the side, darnit (Casino Whoring, Bonus Whoring)!!!

I also recommend at least $2 bets -- goes a lot faster. I did $4 bets at planetluck and cleared in just over an hour.
