Bonus Whoring
We apologise for the crudeness of the term, but ‘bonus whoring’ is in fact the act of signing up with online casinos with the sole intention of taking advantage of the sign-up bonus. It might not sound like a very nice activity, but it is one that all online casino players can profit from, as you’re about to discover...
The theory behind bonus whoring is simple: By signing up with several online casinos you can get benefit from several sign-up bonuses. For example, on our Casino Bonus page we list over two dozen online casinos that offer particularly generous bonuses. Those of you who want to try bonus whoring could join all of the sites listed and thereby claim a bonus payment from each.
Of course, to be an effective bonus whore you will want to play sensibly and increase your chances of winning at every online casino that you join, so here are some tips to help you do just that:
First, don’t think that you have to join all available sites at once. In many cases, joining one site at a time can be more profitable. For example, instead of depositing £10 in each of ten casinos (and perhaps getting 10 x £10 bonuses) you could join one casino at a time with a £100 deposit and end up getting 10 x £100 bonuses!
Next, be sure to familiarise yourself with the terms and conditions of the sign-up bonus you are looking to claim. This will tell you how much “action” you need to give the casino in question before you are allowed to withdraw your bonus.
When you are ready to start playing, choose your game carefully. If you need to give the casino £500 of action, you probably won’t want to bet on individual numbers at the roulette wheel, because your chances of making a profit will be relatively slim. Games that allow you to bet on even-money shots (such as blackjack or baccarat) tend to be best for those who want to have the maximum chance of winning.
Finally, don’t feel compelled to withdraw your bonus cash. Bonus whoring can be as much about getting maximum gaming action for your buck as it is about free cash, so you should feel free to use your bonus money to continue playing if you want to.
Once you have received sign-up bonuses from all of the casinos that appeal, you can continue your bonus whoring activities by making the most of any reload bonuses that are on offer. By taking advantage of all the bonuses available you could easily get 25%, 50% or even 100% more gaming action for every £1 you invest personally.
