Playthrough Requirements

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

Those free bonuses you get for depositing money are a great way to ‘get ahead’. But be sure you satisfy the play through requirements if you win big and want to cash out. In order to earn those bonuses you need to gamble with the money you get.

Otherwise, people would just deposit money to get the free bonuses and then just cash out. The play through requirement, or wagering requirement is different for each casino. At the Platinum Play Online Casino for instance, there is a thirty times play-through wagering before these bonuses may be cashed in.

Also, not all of the wagers you make may count toward this requirement. 100% of slot machine bets always count toward the wagering requirement because those are usually the most profitable games for a casino. They are also the games where players can and do win millions of dollars.

Other games however have different levels. With Classic Blackjack & All Aces Video Poker, only 2% of the bets count. At some other casinos, none of those bets count.

However, 10% of wagers for Sicbo, Roulette, Video Poker games, Craps, Baccarat and all Blackjacks except Classic Blackjack count. You can also count 20% of bets for table poker games and casino war.

So all is not as bad as it may originally seem. Everyday people win with these bonuses and so can you!

Wagering Requirements

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Every online casino that offers free cash bonuses have a wagering requirement. Before you attempt to cash any wins, be sure you have satisfied the casinos wagering requirement or you are likely to forfeit your bonus and your bonus winnings. However, if you are a regular player at the casino you will not need to be concerned about this.

At the Desert Dollar all of your play counts towards the wagering requirement at these levels

Slots and Parlor Games like Keno & Scratch Card Games – 100%
American Roulette – 10%
Table Poker games, Casino War – 20%
Sicbo and all Roulettes except American Roulette 10%
Video Poker games, Craps, Baccarat and all Blackjacks except Classic Blackjack – 10%
Classic Blackjack & All Aces Video Poker – 2%

100% of your wagers at slot, keno and scratch games count toward this requirement because these are the games with the lowest odds. However, the jackpot levels at slot games are the highest, so do not dismiss these games.

Continue to have fun and play those games!
