How good is bet365 casino

#1
I was looking at bet365.com casino. I was wondering if anyone has played on it and how was it? More specificially I was wondering is it fair and for the bonus wagering requirement do the blackjack games count? Or do they count less? I would like to get into this. Thanks all (by the way, this is my first post)

Yes, bet365 is one of the most highly regarded online casinos.

I personally have played there, and made a nice profit. Blackjack is certainly playable for the WR. They pay out quickly too.

It is advisable to deposit enough to get the maximum bonus, so for bet365 thats $200. If you don't feel comfortable depositing $200 straight away, I would advise checking out both Starluck and Planetluck, two associated casinos, who both do $100 match bonuses.
Then, once you've (hopefully) made a profit on those, play for the $200 at bet365 and Casino-on-Net, which is for $200 also.

If you have any questions at all, feel free to send me a personal message.

In a nutshell, they are one of the best. Very possibly the best. Their $200.00 match bonus that is cashable is one of the most premium out there. They paid me in less than an hour on my win. All around a great online casino.
Here is a link with more detail from my experience with them:

I will be the contrarian and say that it isn't fair because it does not check for blackjack before you double down and only allows you to split once. This gives the house and edge of roughly -.60% which is worse than the majority of land casinos out there. You're much better off playing at intecasino if you ask me.

Oh boo hoo.
Again, THATS THE BLOODY RULES FOR THEIR BLOODY CASINO! Fairness isn't judged by the rules of the game you moron.

Go play at a land casino then, but don't expect to get the $200 bonus that BET365 offer.

ARGH!

Show me the land casino that gives you a $200.00 match before you play and then we'll be comparing apples to apples. I also want to know where the land casinos are that have these great percentages. Maybe in Nevada, since most small casinos are more along the lines of:

6 Decks, H17, DA2, DAS, OBO, No surrender
Estimated House Edge for these rules: 0.66%

I do have a couple more figures to toss out there and then I'll shut up again:

1st play at Bet365 - I deposit $200.00 - I withdraw $440.00
2nd play at Bet365 - I deposit $200.00 - I withdraw $510.00

Yes those figures are true and no I don't work for Bet365. This is the truth and that's that.

.

You can play there twice? Was it a reload?

I don't recall seeing on bet 365's website where it says it allows you to double down before it checks for blackjack. I don't know about you but, I think I rather go to a land based casino in NV where the house only has like a .35 edge or less with dd bj and count vs taking a $100 bonus that I got and deal with 12, 9, 8, and a lot of 7 hand losing streaks. I believe that you did well but I'm just saying it didn't work for me. I've had much better luck at Intercasino and their single deck blackjack offers far better rules.

Sigh ... why am I letting myself get sucked in to this? Perhaps only because the facts currently appear to be liquid and I would rather they remain close to reality.

I agree absolutely. I will have Charles bring the Lear around and I'll be in Vegas in an hour. Or perhaps I should simply up and move to Vegas so I can get that extra .2 percent. Yes I am being a smartass as you are ignoring some realities like dealing with what we have at hand.

vs taking a $100 bonus that I got
I believe that we have been discussing a $200 bonus?

I believe that you did well but I'm just saying it didn't work for me. I've had much better luck at Intercasino
I understand that and I do believe you as well. Now would you believe me if I said that the last InterCasino bonus I did cost me money? That's right, I LOST $15 on this months bonus at InterCasino. Actually I lost $115.00 if you include the bonus. I played straight basic strategy to the tee. It happens. Oh well.

Finally, the basic problem here is that you must have played the online flash based version of blackjack at Bet365 and did not take advantage of the Blackjack Surrender or Blackjack Switch which is available through the download version. Blackjack Switch has a house advantage somewhere in the range of .25%!
Finally, and what appears to be most importantly, when you download the casino the dealer always checks for blackjack when they have a ten card up before letting you make a play.
I can understand if you find that hard to believe, so I encourage to DOWNLOAD the Bet365 casino and check it out for yourself:

Thanks Greg

You're right, I wasn't aware that they had the better games available. I wish I knew that now, oh well. And I know no one will believe me, but I just won $1800 at Intercasino on their millionaires slot. I can't believe I had a 1-6 shot or so of winning the jackpot!!! Made my day though. I have a nice screen shot of it if anyone wants to see.

Isn't that jackpot over 200k? Man, that would've been nice...:)

How did you get the $200 bonus twice? Did you do it for a friend?
