They do not want to depend on specific limitations of casino companies and fully benefit from the game. You would believe that it does not make sense but it’s actually clever!

This strategy works especially for players of table games (blackjack, craps and roulette) who need to be able to withdraw their earnings quickly.

To accept casino bonus, it means having to force yourself to play a number of times the original bet on games other than other table games. Indeed, it is shown that some table games have the best payout percentages, unlike slot machines, for example, where percentages are highly variable, especially where you have the worst players.

However, if slot machines, jackpots and other video poker is your passion, to accept the bonus casino takes on its meaning, because you’ll be able to play longer on the slot machines that can allow for some great gains, unlike table games where the gains are still modest in comparison.

Enjoy poker and have a good time!

To withhold your bonus, simply call the online casino (it’s usually a Toll free number) or send an email to customer service when you deposit money in your online casino.

Ace 6 – Double if the dealer has 3 thru 6 – otherwise hit.
Ace 7 – Stand if the dealer has 2, 7 or 8. Double 3 – thru 6 – otherwise hit.
Ace 8 or Ace 9 – Always Stand.

Pairs – when you have 2 cards with the same number.

A pair of Aces or Eights – Always split.
A pair of twos or threes – Split if the dealer has 2 – 7, otherwise hit.
A pair of fours – Split if the dealer has 5 or 6 – otherwise hit.
A pair of fives – Double if the dealer has 2 thru 9 – otherwise hit.

A pair of sevens – Split 2 thru 7 – otherwise hit.
A pair of nines – Split 2 thru 6, and 8 or 9. Stand if the dealer has 7, 10 or Ace.
