My friend and I are going to begin whoring blackjack. We are starting with the top ten (Golden Palace, Planetluck, Bet365 etc.) We have about a 2k bankroll and we are considering betting 1/4 of each casinos (d+b) stack the whole way through the requirement until we hit a "target", say 3-4 times the bonus+deposit (cashable). After this target is reached, the bonus will be cleared by flat betting 5-10 dollars.

My question is this. What is an acceptable target range for a win with this type of wagering (75 per hand minimum in most cases), and what is the chance that we will bust out 2,000 doing it this way?

Any stories or experience would be greatly appreciated.

Pretty good chance that you will bust out, so I hope you can accept that!

asked a similar, albeit not as risk friendly, question and got that link, which proved helpful.

I'd go to the probability forum if you want to know the exact odds you'll bust out. It's certainly going to be well above zero, though; whether it's within your risk tolerance level is up to you to decide. The good news is that, of course, if you DON'T bust out, if will probably mean you made a very good chunk of cash very quickly. Best of luck if you try it /images/graemlins/smile.gif
