    so whats the best plan of attack then for these casino offers, blackjack using one of those online strategies?

    Thats what I did, best way IMO to lose minimal amount. I lost £22 on WSOP because I did poker not seeing BJ, but apart from that I lost no more than a few quid on each, and on some I made a profit up to £15.

    The only thing I would look out of is comparing Ipoints to other cashback sites. Eurogrand casino or something is offering like £40 at Quidco and only 8000 points (£25ish) at ipoints. I acidently did that with one casino because I was a wee bit fixated with points.


    Have fun in Egypt.

    I've done Ceasers but with WSOP is it only poker you can play? Or is there other games

    Also is it wise to contact customer services and ask for any sign-up bonuses to be removed?
    2p off is still 2p off!

    I always contact customer services before I deposit to make sure no bonuses appear.

    My Ceasar's has also appeared. Happy days. Now got £180 of Amazon vouchers with another £60 on it's way. Christmas sorted
    Total Debts: £1,500

    WSOP seems to be associated with Caesars Casino. So you don't have to play just Poker. You can launch casino games within WSOP software which will launch Caesars casino software and allow you to gamble on casino games.

    Well it did for me

    Yes, If you don't know how to utlises bonuses and just after the ipoints than always ask them how to opt out. You don't want to be stuck with having wager £5000 worth of chips before you can withdraw.

    Can someone clarify this for me. The WSOP deposit and wager £20 thing - what counts as wagering in a poker game? If I sit at a table with a £10 buy in for example, win a few quid then leave the table does that counts as having wagered £10, even though I might only have actually bet a couple of hands?

    (I know there are casino games with better odds but fancy trying some effectively risk free proper poker)

    Hi all just to update we received our Maximiles points from the Intercasino offer on 18/08/2010. Thanks for the advice :)

    I was emailed yesterday with two new offers in the one email, deposit and wager £20 at World Series of Poker and deposit and wager £20 at Caesars Casino Online for 12,000 points each so 24,000 points in total.

    Is there a catch?

    You're a little late on this one, look up at the last few posts, the WSOP one has already been posted and the Caesers one disappeared from the site a few days ago (and as WSOP are owned by the same company, they may well disappear any moment).

    To answer the question though, no there's no catch. Just make sure you request any deposit bonus is removed from your account and keep records of everything you do (keep related emails, records of when you clicked thru, wagered etc, possibly screenshots)
