Im up a massive amount on casino.net right now +1020.00 (thinly veiled BBV post /images/graemlins/smile.gif ) on a deposit of 1K with a bonus of 250.00. I know its retarded EV wise to cashout now...but Ive got like 9K left in my wagering and Im sure this bubble is going to burst. Would it make any sense at all to treat this like a sticky and cashout now and forfeit the bonus? Please explain so I dont have dumb thoughts like this again.

If you really need that $1,000 (I doubt you do if you are tossing $1,000 in the site to begin with) then cash it out, but you still have a very +EV situation ahead of you by finishing the WR. I'd say just grow a pair and flat-bet $20 a hand till you clear it. Whoring is not for the faint of heart.

I would drop my bet down to the minimum and grind it out. I once spent 9 hrs grinding away at a 1100 profit with a large wager requirement. I ended up 1k at in the end. It took alot of time but it was over $110/hr. Of course the minimum was $5. I say drop it down to what you can handle and grind away.

there's nothing wrong with shrinking the bet size to keep as much profit as you can.by cashing out you'd be leaving +EV on the table but it may be better for your psyche. it would suck to see that stupid little dealer start making five card 21s over and over as you lose most of your profit. /images/graemlins/wink.gif jk

Even better....Im moving on to 21.com and I'll have my wife grind away the last 6K at $5 a hand while she watches TV. 2 whores are better than 1.

If he wants it he can pm me. (I'm serious jba.) The former is much cooler than the latter.

EDIT: To the OP -- yeah crank it down and grind the rest out.
