Uh, well at least they've limited the absolute size of the bonuses, but still ...

Looks like they are targeting small fish nick deposits. That is smart. 150 cash for that nickel. Would wager very few will make the rollover requirements before they tap. If it was up to 10 dimes for 3 dimes, I would leave today, as that is a bad sign, taking on sharps, big bankrolls. IMO the future profitability for the offshore books are these novice square nick deposit players. I would do the exact thing if I was running a book. No worries here. O F

 

[Jazz]

Wouldn't disagree concerning the sign-up, but re-loads??? What's to prevent someone from sending in nickels during the day?

"Receive a 20% Re-up cash bonus (up to $100) on all deposits"

They've had this same bonus at Gamblers Avenue since the get-go (about 4 months ago). Max bonus is relatively small.

 

[Jazz]

Hal: did they allow multiple re-up bonuses to be received? Meaning, other than just the first time? Perhaps it IS only the first re-up, I was thinking it applied to every re-deposit.

 

[OMNIVOROUS FROG]

Excellent point Jazz, I do that one myself. Bet365 before they cut me 90% was one. Bodog another. But it was a one time shot. Again, the same tiny limits on the bonus, I just do not see a sharp sending in multiple nickel reups. I would not even try that. That would probably give them a reason to withold bonus pay if you won. I have seen a lot of one time shots on nickel deposits up to 50%. From decent books. I think the recent posts have everyone waiting for the sky to fall at Royal. Did you feel the pebble? O F

 

[Jazz]

Yeah, also felt the pea under my mattress - lol

Jazz,

Please email me if possible @ GeneralPete@hotmail.com

Thanks

Done - btw, Roberto replied over at Peep's place, looks like the reload was one-time only when they offered it while he was there, so if true then this appears harmless as others have mentioned.

 

[RobertoCastiglioni]

Jazz,

It was designed as one shot and remains as such. Nothing of sharps or wise interest, but excellent value for recreational players .

Any book targeting recreational players instead of sharps or wise is indeed going into the right direction.

Yup - and the email turned out to be the GA newsletter, kind of fooled me because the sender was betroyal and I simply saw the bonuses in a banner. So GA is the one with the offer anyhow, not Royal.

 

[OMNIVOROUS FROG]

Guess that pebble just fell from the roof after all. Either way, recreational square enticer. Sky is not falling yet. Neither is Royal. O F
