From the play with $500 for an hour bonus, win up to $200 promo.

[ QUOTE ]

12. In the interest of avoiding any confusion related to this promotion and the winnings transferred to the Real account, please be certain to read the following wagering obligations:
Bonus amounts credited to a Player’s bonus account are subject to 30 times play through before they may be cashed in.
Different games played may contribute a different percentage of the play through - up to 100%, towards the required play-through.
The contributing percentages are as follows:
Slots, American Roulette and Parlor Games count 100% towards wagering requirements
Table Poker, all Roulettes excluding American Roulette, Casino War and Sicbo count 50% towards wagering requirements
Video Poker, all Blackjacks except Classic Blackjack, Craps and Baccarat count 10% towards wagering requirements
Classic Blackjack counts 2% towards wagering requirements


[/ QUOTE ]

What are the percentages refering to?

Say for example I have $200 in bonus to clear @ 30x.

Are the percentages saying that I can play BJ for:
0.02*$200*30 = $120 in total wagers

Or do they mean that I can play BJ for the full $200*30 but only 2% of my wagers qualify towards clearing?

If the second scenario is the case, which group of games would be recommended to clear the bonus most efficiently?

It seems to me that playing something like Red Dog @ -3% over $6000 still has higher $EV than playing BJ @ -0.5% over 50*$6000=$300000. Am I thinking about this in the wrong way?

This is my first attempt at clearing a casino bonus, so any help/advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,

oVan

Best I can tell. You are thinking correclty in the 2nd situation. BlackJack has an insane Wagering Requirement (x1500 or whatever) so yes, you would probably be better off with some other game...but I havent ran the numbers because I am not confident enough with my solutions....

Someone else will jump on.

10% at 30x playthrough is 300x wagering requirements on anything you win. F THAT! Move onto somewhere else If you win, you're hourly will be like .15/hour.

What is the -EV of just playing red on every spin of american roulette? 100% counts.

-5.3% or something like that

All options pretty much blow I think. Look out something with a progressive jackpot (or slots), here I come!!!!!!!!!
