Basic casino whoring question

[Watai]

Ok, firstly i really tried to search. I would like to do some casino bonuses for a change and was wondering some bankroll issues. Let's say i'll deposit $100 to the site with 100% bonus, WR(D+B x 8) then how much should i bet per round if i play BJ? Or is there any simple rule for this? Thanks.

from what I understand, the standard sticky bonus is 100 for 100, thus giving you 200 to spend. I've heard 5 dollar bets aren't that bad.

there's no "rule" for how much to bet.

This is all a matter of how much variance you want. If you want to have the best chance of leaving not-broke...bet $1/hand.

If you want to not have it take longer, bet $3 or $5 or whatever...your chance of going bust goes up though because the variance goes up....(Then again, your chance of winning a ton is a lot higher too)....

No simple rule.

theres a very useful chart on the BJ section of the wizard of odds site that tells you what you risk of ruin is for different bet sizes/wagering levels/bankrolls

Comes in very handy for setting a bet size appropriate to your risk tolerance. I generally try to set my bet size to give me about 5% ROR, which means that I should only bust out 1 in 20 bonuses I go for!

I'd go $2 on those 2 casinos, since these are your first couple. don't want to bust out and deter you from doing any others.

He's clearly talking about planetluck and starluck. these are not stickeys. betting 5 a hand on stickys would be suicide.

You should bet around 15-25% of your deposit+bonus per hand on a sticky.
