SportNation Casino Bonus

  • Got a email with a 50% deposit bonus and noticed the term forbidding:

    Playing equal to or more than 500 consecutive hands/spins on any game and/or playing any game consistently for a period longer than two hours while a bonus is active.

    e.g. You set any game to run on auto spin for 500 spins while you have an active bonus in your account and/or you play for a period of two hours or more (irrelevant of how many sessions) while you have an active bonus.

    Given you have to roll over 25x the bonus and cant bet more than 30% in one go, surely this term is completely unfair?!

    Although given it is endorsed by Alan Brazil it hardly surprised me.

    Why is it unfair?
    It’s basically blocking people using automation to cycle through a bonus to keep it for recreational players…. and it doesn’t sound particularly hard to get round

    So youre not allowed to only play one game to go through the bonus – how is that reasonable?

    Because the idea of the bonus would be for recreational players to try the site and different games.
    At 500 hands/spins you can clear it in 1/20th of your bonus a go. Or at lower stakes just break it up with another game for a short while. Technically 1 spin would be enough…. just see the bookies side for a minute then figure out how to get around it.

    I agree it’s unfair, most recreational casino players only play either Blackjack or roulette they don’t think half way through a game of blackjack “You know what I feel like a game of roulette”
    It’s either one or the other, 500 hands isn’t much, about 1 hour blackjack playing…So basically if you haven’t read small print you could have winnings forfeited..

    Anyone else reading this might want to log into sportsnation and make sure they don’t have an outstanding sports bonus balance by clicking on there cash balance, because cash balance will be sacrificed if bonus hasn’t been rolled-over..

    Unfortunately many places take real money before bonus money, which I think is more or a sly tactic and something that does catch out the average punter.

    And – a hand every 7 seconds? Get real. 500 hands or spins in a row is a lot. You reckon an average person would see gambling £500 (ignoring the 30% gripe where op wants to bet thousands) straight off as not much?
