Newbie Casino Question

[Brice]

I am doing the Starluck bonus and the wagering requirements are 8xD+B. I understand that I need to wager $1600 to get the bonus. But what I if deposit more than $100. What if I go bust and then deposit again?

Why would you want to deposit more than $100?

again why would you want to deposit again if you bust?

Just deposit $100, get the bonus and finish the WR!

What he said ^^.

Don't deposit more than $100. Also, when you deposit $100, the $100 bonus will be added to your account so you'll have $200. So if you go bust, the bonus is already gone, redepositing would be bad policy.

This isn't like CarSands, where the bonu money is not added until you finish the WR.

Alright, I see that now. I am still learning as I go along here.

Unless its gone now (check the site), you can deposit $500 through IGM and get $200 in bonus money ($100 for $100 and $100 for $500). However, you will have to do $3200 in wagering instead of $1600. Which is still very good.

However, if you're just starting out and trying to get a feel for it, you can always do it later.

Can anyone tell me how the hell I can tell how much I have bet at Starluck?

[Halo7]

Use live chat or call them to check on your WR at Starluck/Planetluck. There is no way for you to check yourself (other than keep track as you go along)

I think it's better if most of us try to keep track of how much we have wagered ourselves and not asking Live chat too often. In this case with Starluck/Planetluck it might not do any difference since the bonus has been the same for several years... but for other casinos it might make a differance. If everyone always asked support "How much have I wagered?" "Is this bonus X still available?" they become more aware of people whoaring their site... I know it's very easy and handy to just pop up the Live chat or fire an email away, but this could contribute to killing some bonuses I think... what do you guys think?

I use a little program called BJwagertracker. You have to click manually for each hand but then again you get statistics of everything... I couldn't whore without it now.. =)

agreed. This program works perfectly and you don't have to bug support ever.

A google search for BJwagertracker did not find any download sites. Anyone know where it can be found?

[sirej]

Search again, using "blackjack wager tracker" (keep the quotes).

my blackjack wager tracker is a calculator, with an equals button. Then I don't have to move the mouse all over constantly, just use my free hand. Also, it's able to keep track of wagering in other games as well! Truly a magical device. It can also be used to computer those pesky "What were the chances of this occurance?" questions that newbs are frequently filled with.

Anyone thinking of running this program should first read the following 2+2 thread from just a couple months ago:
NOTICE: Possible Virus in Poker Software (RBCALC) (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=rakeback&Number=5796727)

And for those who don't know rbcalc was provided by a well respected sponsor here.

Who wrote bjwagertracker and do you trust them not to have written a virus into it? I'm certainly not going to run it on my computer.
