I got 2 bonuses today at party for my birthday. I managed to hit big in slot machines and got up to 85$, then I wanted to opt-out but if I did I would've lost everything. So I decided to go back to the same slot and do small spins with 5 lines untill I meet the bonus requirements. (basically trying to reduce variance as much as possible) At that point I still had to wager 70$ out of the 5$ they gave me lol.
But fortunately for me I kept hitting small wins so I almost broke even. Completed the bonus with 72$ left

The Machine..... That's a great birthday present from the guys at party. It is hard work at times trying to play the required play through, especially when you have generated so much from so little..... But usually by the time you are at that amount losing is difficult...... But not impossible. Well done.

That is a nice birthday gift. From a $5 free bonus you managed to clear $72. Great strategy by the way, attack big early and then change gear and grind it out. You deserve it man. Congratulations and happy birthday. Enjoy

Another good promotion i guess for tall the players there.
Not many big sites left, but the ones remaining, organizing some good promotions to beat the competition. One of the good things, in the current world of online poker.

Yeah that's exactly what I did. When I hit big I had 3,50$ left and I bet 50 cents on 7 lines. Hit 4 feature thingy for 21$ and got like 15 free spins and won like 60 more with the free spins because every win had a decent multiplier.
Considering you can't really win on the long term against a slot machine, gambling hard early with free bonuses seems like the way to go! Go big or go home!

Congratz on the birthday present from Party Poker when the scatters trigger the free spins always a good result. I am still waiting for the mob points cash out to Party Poker not planning to play any slots just Poker.
Posted by Theapple: yeah wagering on slots is usually why i dont even bother with my bday bonuses from poker/betting sites that give me casinobonus :/
i remember once i got like $10 on bet at home for their casino, won $30 or so and had to wager... $1200 to be able to cash out... i mean seriously ?
Well, for party it was a 5$ USD bonus and I had to wager about 80$ total. So that's 16x wagering requirement. But hey if you don't try you can't win. If you gamble early doing big spins then you only lose 2 mins of your time, and if you do hit something big you can try to reduce variance like I did and then cruise with very small autospins untill the wagering requirements are met.

Not a bad multiplier the 40x with 30$ starting money, since you have more money and chances to hit free spins taking you further. All you need, is to be a little lucky. It can be boring sometimes chasing this, but you have a chance to free money.
