I just recived mesage that I have bonus on black jack 5$ if I earn 7,50VPP on black jack... there was accept button or decline offer... I accepted and put it into count, and I dont want to play for it... even tought its great offer, but I told to myself that i will not play that sht anymore :S
It would be a great offer if it was 4 a double-digit bonus sum but for only five bucks this is just a classic bait to get you loose money again. Do not go at it IMO.
Well in blackjack you have always like 49% chance to win so it's not a bad offer. But if you know you're not gonna play blackjack then there's no point in accepting the offer
I played blackjack a bit other day cause I had a 2$ bonus from the riddle. Made like 10$ then I realized I had to wager 50$ to clear it so I left with my 10$ profit lol

Probably you have some bad history by playing blackjack, but what i didnt understand is why you accepted it in the first place if you had no intention playing with the bonus. The requirements seem a bit high for this one and probably dont worth at all risking it.

Everyone here should check their accounts, if they have one at Stars. For me it was a $5 free bet, stake not returned, with no additional wagering requirements attached to it, or at least it looks so.

Never play black jack online, unles it is bonus money or a no deposit. If you like the game better save some money and have some fun in a real casino. More safe there about the outcome of the cards, unless you hit a lucky dealer In this case you say nice talking to you but im changing table lol.

stay away from them , it is joke these kind of bonus are meant to get more from you not give you you have to wager 55$ in blackjack to make 1 FPP imagine that , you have to risk hundreds of dollars to get that lousy 5$
here is the rules from their site !!!!!!
Can I earn FPPs at Casino tables? Yes, there is absolutely no difference between FPPs earned at a poker table and at a Casino game; FPPs are earned at our Casino tables based on the amount wagered. The rate you earn points depends on the game type and variant played: • At a Classic Blackjack table, players will receive one FPP for every $54 wagered • At a Atlantic City Blackjack table, players will receive one FPP for every $74 wagered • At a European Blackjack table, players will receive one FPP for every $91 wagered • At a Premium Atlantic City Blackjack table, players will receive one FPP for every $107 wagered • At a Premium Blackjack table, players will receive one FPP for every $110 wagered • At a Double Deck Atlantic City Blackjack table, players will receive one FPP for every $145 wagered • At a Double Deck Blackjack table, players will receive one FPP for every $145 wagered • At a European Roulette table, players will receive one FPP for every $12 wagered When a game (or hand) is complete, any winnings and FPPs earned are credited immediately to your account, however, do please note that by playing Casino games, you will not earn VPPs, which determine your VIP status in poker.

Of cause it is an incentive to play. If the numbers are correct, one has to bet slightly over $400 to get the $5 bonus. So even with a 1% house edge (high forBJ) it would still be +ev. But one would have to bet 81 times the bonus amount to actually get the bonus. Even at these dark times, there are better offers.

Just dont play this game. You will never have an edge on it. If you play to make money out of it online it is not going to happen. An if you manage to do this in a real casino too many times, with large sums, you will have your butt kicked
