Target: Wager 2000GBP.

Deposited 100GBP, wagered 1400GBP, busted out.
Deposited 100GBP 2nd time, wagered 375, busted out.
Deposited 100GBP 3rd time, wagered 325, busted out.
Won back 50GBP.

Total loss of -250GBP or $500USD just to clear a fu*king sticky type 2 bonus @ UKBetting.com (no USA)...my single biggest loss ever..I may never play on a site that uses Chartwell software again..honestly, when dealer wins 5 in a row with 2 BJs, and I get dealt A9 KJ Q8 and dealer shows 7, I EXPECT TO WIN, but F*CK NO he shows 77 and hits another 7..Never seen a dealer that has such a low chance of busting..it's proven that they are rigged and now I'm another statistic!

36 hours later, I go to clear my Club on the Park monthly..flat bet $2x5 multibets for 18% of the WR and I break even..take a break, decide to play pontoon at 2x$5 multibets and bust in 30 mins..redeposit another 100GBP, go back to multihand BJ surrender with 3x$3 bets this time and again, I bust out in ~30 minutes...now I redeposit with another 100GBP, and this time I play 5x$1 multibets, but it ain't looking good again... i was even/up for the last 30 minutes until the past 10 minutes, when the dealer went on a hot run and got 19-21 in the last 10 hands without busting :\...now im sitting here, with the WR @ 50% complete...

When is it time to call it quits?

I don't mean to quit casino whoring.

I just mean, do you ever quit chasing bonuses after busting out 2-3 deposits?

1) Chartwell is not rigged.
2) I lost 19 hands in a row last week betting one hundred times your largest unit.
3) Never call it quits.

At intercasino you get the option to clear the bonus playing poker instead??? AT least you used to.

why not play a +EV game rather than a -EV game there
or even video poker if you don't like holdem.

I hate moving my roll from site to site, plus the games there are terrible

a little $5 blackjack is a nice change once in a while - the problem is when it gets to $300/hand /images/graemlins/crazy.gif

well **** club on the park, I almost had to redeposit another 100GBP just to clear this mother@#*)@&# off.... flat betting $2 per hand with $50 left and 30% to WR and i went all the way down to 4....doubled up twice and won (phew), then kept flat betting $2 per hand.....went up to $60 and eventually finished off the WR....funny thing is I stopped playing optimal strategy for the most part because I was already on tilt..turns out it helped me a lot..raise with 10 vs 7,8,9? eff that...raise with 11 vs 10? eff that...check with 12 vs 14+? eff that too....

Total Deposit: 300GBP (600 USD)
Total Withdrawal: 165GBP (330 USD)
Total Loss: -135GBP (-270USD)

Awesome eh..just to clear a *** damn 100GBP bonus... these GBP bonuses are damn profitable when cards go your way, but when they don't, you're so effed! I've lost close to ~$1000USD this month playing at Eurobet, Coral, Littlewoods, and now Club on the park...And all four times, I could have cut my losses by 50%+ if I didn't redeposit!

I can't imagine betting $100 per hand and losing like this rofl.

You're so pessimistic. Think about betting $100/hand and winning.

[/ QUOTE ] This is weird tilting, and casino whoring is nothing for you when let a little losing streak get to you like that. So yes, now would be a good time to quit.
