Whats going on with Royal Vegas Poker?

Unless there's something I'm missing, it's YOUR money not someone else's. You can withdraw it and put gas in your car, buy a nice dinner for your girlfriend, or go to WalMart and upgrade your wardrobe.

The bonus money isn't. You have to play 1000 raked hands before you can withdraw that. So you can withdraw your own money and go to walmart, but have to do something with that $100 bonus money. Some prefer to grind it out and then withdraw it, but there are dozens if not hundreds of 10x bonuses available online. There are only two sites (Pacific and this one) where you can take your own money out and play with their cash at no risk to your own bankroll. Since the chance doesn't come along all that often, use it to take a shot at something and go for a big score. Or keep trying to double it up at a limit higher than you usually play and take out the profits each time you do.

or the wagering requirements increase...

When I started playing online the wagering requirements were 2x the bonus. Now a bonus of 20x deposit AND bonus is considered very good. The crap that some players try to pull over on the casino, is a major reason why they have gone up.

Is there any PSO type deals for Royal Vegas Poker? Or even rakeback is nice. Heck Id even settle for a RAF. Better than nothing.

Ya, but I got mine.

Honestly, you really care what kind of deal might be left around for others?

Second, you're assuming the people at Royal Vegas are stupid. They know people will do this yet they put this new promotion up anyways. If I were to grind out the 1000 hands with their money I would still create more rake then the 100 I took hence the site wins. If I bust, well I guess they know these free 100 dollar accounts will make more money then they cost them. Generally companies are rather smart about these things.

So I found a nice RAF and signed up. How long does it take for the bonus to be applied? I want to start burning hands tonite but the traffic already seems to be dying. What is the best time to play on the Primas for .5/1 FL? Thanks for the info

pokersitescout.com has listings of site size at different times. If its mostly euro it will peak in the early afternoon, I do not know if this is the case however.

Yeah and the crap casinos try to pull on the players is one of the reasons why we try to take them for all they're worth...f#$% em. Plus, I don't really care about the guy who comes after me...I still get paid. Sorry for my lack of compassion...unless you wanna use my referral links that is [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

This is specifically part of the t&cs of the bonus.....

<u>You are able to cash in your deposit and winnings at any point</u> , but remember that the bonus amount belongs to the poker room until you have raked 10 times your bonus amount on Ring Games only e.g. Purchase $100 and get $100 Bonus. Therefore to cash out you need to rake 1000 hands ($100 x 10 =1,000). Once you have met the requirements, your full deposit AND bonus amount are available for cash in. If you cash in and you have not reached the raked hand requirement, the bonus amount will be reversed back to your poker account. This means that the bonus amount will be subtracted from your cash-in amount first and then any surplus balance paid out.

Read the first line, they are obviously aware this is going to happen and have no problems with it.

I say if you are not breaking the terms what is wrong with what is happening. Please dont take a moral high ground unless you know all the information.

We are in no way harming future bonus prospects unless we are deliberatly breaking the rules which in this case we are not.

I can assure you if they did not want this to happen they would have prevented it. Looks like a smart move from Royal Vegas to entice players to their room and generate rake to me.
