OmniCasino no blackjack allowed??

[Ryanski]

I signed up for the $100 bonus here, via casinobonuswhores, but it looks like blackjack doesn't work toward clearing the bonus? Anyone have/had this problem, or know of any other game I should play?

I could be wrong, and blackjack is allowed, but I just played for 10 minutes, and my bonus is still at 0% clearance.

Thanks,

Ryan

I believe there are two bonuses... a BJ bonus with 80xB wagering and a non-BJ (VP allowed) bonus with 30xB wagering. See the promotions section of the site for more details.

Time to learn JoB Video Poker. About the same expected value as blackjack playing intermediate strategy although the variance is certainly higher.

JoB on Crypto casinos are short pay on 4OAK (20 instead of 25) and SF (40 instead of 50). the house advantage is therefore 1.75% rather than the usual 0.5%. the 80xB blackjack deal would still be better because of this (unless you've already opted-in for the slots-only bonus).

It depends how you define "better." Cryptologic Double Bonus VP has a 0.89% house edge. Over 30xB wagering, average loss is 27% of bonus. With a $0.50x10 bet size, 1 standard deviation over the course of the wagering is ~$300.

Cryptologic standard BJ has a 0.49% house edge. Over 80xB wagering, average loss is 39% of bonus. With a $5 bet size, 1 standard deviation over the course of the wagering is ~$215.

Double bonus VP has a higher expected gain (including wagering), but BJ has a higher chance of completing the wagering requirement without busting, in spite of the larger wagering requirement. Neither bonus is particularly good.

God damn man....I started playing this video poker at 230 units.... got up to 260....then plummeted all the way to [censored] 100...following a simple strategy on wizard of odds......put 50 on blackjack....at 150....drop 20 more in a few minutes LOL. Still have 50% left of this bonus to clear.

Seriously, does anyone else have any advice? This is not working out. I just want my original 100 back and I'll be happy...lol.

There is no way I can wager 1500 more playing this goddamn game.




Thanks anyone that can help!

Back in the days when I did Omni Pontoon was the way to go, but I guess the other guys should have suggested that if it was still allowed..

VP is slow to finish WR compared to BJ and has a variance of about a billion.
