First time doing a casino bonus, having trouble (planetluck)

[MycroftX]

I'm exactly half way through the $100 planetluck sign up bonus, playing blackjack.

I'm just playing one hand at a time for $1. I've never done a casino bonus before, but I'm following this chart exactly.

I'm down $73 already.

Should I be using a different chart?

Is it just bum luck? Or do you expect to take less than the bonus amount?
(I was hoping with the small edge a house has in blackjack, and my usual bad luck to take 70-ish from the bonus)

Mostly I want to make sure that the chart I'm using is right before I go for the other half of this one, and before I try starluck.

Thanks, Kev.

Chart looks fine, you've just been a bit unlucky so far but there is still plenty of time to improve... or bust!!

Thats the chart I and alot of people use. Just "bum luck". Variance is a bitch.

I believe at planetluck, the dealer stands at soft 17, but I could be wrong.

It's shouldn't make a big difference tho.

I thought at PlanetLuck the WR was 1,600 wagered for the 200 bucks.

Well, in any case after wagering 1,600 I'm at $150, so things went a little better.

But do I need to wager 400 more?

Also, it is ok to sign up at Starluck correct? Is there another skin I don't know about?

thanks guys,
Kev.

Edit: Oh yeah, and dealer does hit on soft 17 at Planet luck Schaakie.

Aceclub is the same software, but different wagering requirements.

So I'm not mistaken that the WR at Planetluck and Starluck is $1,600 right? SoloAJ has me doubting myself now...

It's $1600 unless they changed it.

Can always email CS to make sure and just to verify if you counted wrong. Although you'll find that out anyway as soon as you try to withdrawal...
