My personal logs of playing online Blackjack

For LeonShuffle - Hello kind sir, I need your experience please. I signed up at Eurobet and trasferred my GPB from SPORTS to CASINO and entered the proper code for the bonus and received the following:
Your transaction was successful
Your transaction was successful
The Bonus Code has been accepted and passed on to the Casino.
However, under the bonus category there is nothing, not even an indication that I am working on the bonus. When I reach the 625 WR will the bonus just appear or did I do something wrong?

It means I am placing additional wagers over and above what I needed to hit the bottom line withdraw requirement (WR) for the bonus money. Rather than just hitting the withdraw requirement and then transferring everything out I stayed and played longer to make it seem a little less like I was simply bonus hunting. While it may cost me a few dollars, the monthly $100.00 bonus from InterCasino is cashable and I want to be welcomed back and not labeled as a "bonus abuser" with my account terminated.
Gregory, this is from Eurobet's terms and conditions:
2a. The amount of 25 chips will be added to GBP, EUR and USD account holders’ Casino chip balances within 48 hours of wagering (staking) a total of 625 chips or more from their own funds on any play for real game within the Eurobet Casino, and having followed the procedure in point 1.
And point 1 is just that you need to transfer money to the casino and enter the bonus code. I see now that it's not a big bonus (I could have sworn it was 50 when I first signed up), but for a WR of just 625, it's not bad. And if I remember correctly, the minimum is 1 pound or dollar. As for the 48 hour thing, I think it was immediate both times I've done it so far. In other words, as soon as I had wagered 625, another 25 appeared.

First of all, I live in a college dorm so I never know when the broadband network is being monitored. Some people have got in trouble regarding pirating before so Im pretty sure they wouldnt mind turning anyone in who is doing something illegal. I dont want to take my chances.
Secondly, I dont feel like switching colleges!
But otherwise, not bad advice.

Thanks Leon! I have no idea why I didn't spot that in the Terms and Conditions last night. I'm usually a stickler for such things, but somehow that got by me. Very possibly it was higher when you did sign up, but until I can wrangle a way to get my $200.00 in to casino-on-net without using Neteller I will play any bonus I can find. Using the GBP makes it a $43.75 bonus with a WR of $1093.75. I should clear a few bucks for a few hours play. I just like to play anyway, and the more time spent here in front of the screen drilling Basic Strategy into my head the better for the live tables.
Being in a college dorm places you under serious scrutiny by the ISP provider, so you are doing the best thing possible. It is unfortunate that Washington state has made internet gaming illegal. I'm not certain who actually determines the age requirements for gambling since I live in a state that has Native American casinos. I had (obviously incorrectly) assumed that the legal age was 21 since that is how it is here. But thinking back it used to be 18 before they changed it a few years ago. Maybe you are actually better off where you are since you are allowed to gamble at land casinos, which you wouldn't be allowed to do here.
TimeKeeper, the majority of the online casinos have some type of graph to indicate where you are in relation to hitting the WR. HOWEVER ... that particular WR sounds like either Starluck or Planetluck, and I never noticed any sort of indicator for where you are in total wagers in either of those casinos.
I make a note of my wagers and keep a running tally and I recommend you do the same at least until you have a few completed bonuses under your belt. You'll have a good feel for things by then and you might be able to dispense with the record keeping.
I still keep records of every single hand and the result of the hand, but I do that mostly for the logs that I have been posting in this thread.

Thinking back the only reason that I lamed up my Planetluck bonus was my own fault. I walked away from Starluck with $260.00 and called it good. I actually hit the WR for Planetluck with $178.00 or so, but got stupid and gave them the $78.00 back. That was my own fault. I should have cleared an extra $70.00.
