Hi guys,

I just found an online casino that accept Video Poker to clear their bonus. Basically, you deposit anything and you get a 10% bonus once you played 11x what you deposited and when you refer a friend, you get 40% of what they deposited once they played it 11x, so you get about 1/55 of everything you play as a bonus. The house edge on VP is 0.46% but if you calculate the bonuses you get from the site plus the referral bonus, it gives you an advantage of 1.35818182% in the long run!

Anyway, my idea was to create a lot of different accounts (using different IP addresses and different names so that the casino don't track me) and I pay some people to play them all using an optimal strategy. On average you can play about 400+ hands an hour, so let's say X people playing 400 hands an hour that's 400X hands an hour, betting 5 units a hand that's 2,000X units an hour so a profit of 27.1636X units per hour, let's say you only bet 5¢ units, that's still $1.3582X an hour in profits, 24h a day that's $32.5964X a day!

So for optimal results, every players would get referred by someone and deposit $500, so at 5¢ bets that would give 10,000 units!

I just checked out wizardofodds and if I have about 10,000 units to start with, I got less than 0.005% chance to go broke, that's less than 1/20,000 to loose only $500, so out of 20,000 players only one would loose all his money.


I am going to China this winter, there I can find plenty of workers and IDs to subscribe to online casinos, it's not a problem for me I got all the contacts here. My only concern is about getting cut by the casino, I guess if they see someone referring over 100 people, that they all deposit $500 and play the same game the same way they are going to suspect something. I know it's possible to cover that by using different people to refer so that it look like they don't know each other and also by playing more games with the cost of some EV but I think it still look pretty hard. Think it would be possible if I find the workers, the IDs and the bankroll? Think it would be really hard to cover? Anyway give me your comments here :D

Oh and I don't think this would be illegal, the players are not going to interact, the subscribers are not going to be technically from the same house, etc.

It's a good idea. An AP named Rob McGarvey who passed away a couple of years ago ran an online team like that and was very successful. You have to arrange to split the commission with the players somehow, and most importantly, they have to be skilled online bonus hustlers because the commission alone isn't enough. Also don't limit yourself to VP, all kinds of games can be played for an advantage. Most casinos have no idea how you can beat them on slots.

Set up a general website advertising all your casino links so you will have a few unskilled players mixed in with your online AP's.
