For instance, you can watch this video explaining how to benefit from a bonus by risking only $0.50 or so...
Is this a good way in your opinion to actually "make money" from gambling or not - what's your opinion?

Don't expect though that even by risking such a low amount, everything is a sure win.

A tournament is really hard to compete in when it's not just you who are eyeing a great position in the leaderboard. Aside from skills, luck is really a big factor to win as you can expect that there are lots of users who will join that tournament. A good way to make money is if the bettor is always doing that and already have good results. Not a good way for those who are not used to doing it.
When you are just a small time gambler then dont make or push yourself that you would ending up on being desperate because it would really be ending up for you to deposit some money instead on just simply using up some bonus amounts.This is where casinos is trying out to achieve or pursue on why they are really that doing up these things.When it comes to competition then dont push your luck
because whale players would be always having that advantage and if y ou are just using up some bonus then most of the time it wont really be that included on using up bonus coins in
participating these kind of tournaments or competitions.I dont see any advantages on these bonuses because you cant really be able to take utilization of these small amounts.

Make sure to take part in tournaments where if you hit a certain wager requirement you are eligible for a prize.Pragmatic Play with their drop and wins favors the people who have a high balance and play with a low bet in their favorite game,this way the sum of all their bets wagered will be counted and the one with the most wagered amount from 1st to 50 or 100 place will get a prize.This is a really great way for example if you have the intention of playing 500 dollars there with 0.20 or 0.10 bet depending on each of their eligible games for this promotion.I always give a shot despite my max amount played is 50 to 75 dollars,so far I have won once the last prize which was 20 dollars,nothing exceptional but you get the idea.

first and foremost, you need to check if you can compete with the tournament because you need to reach a certain level as a player before you can join one. so maybe, using that small amount is just a test for the player as he already reached such high status in the casino. and as you stated, tournament is quite hard as most of your competitors are like "skilled" gamblers. this is not for all gamblers. but you can always try joining such activities if your level is allowing you to. just have fun and don't stress yourself too much with this kind of bonus program.

A tournament is really hard to compete in when it's not just you who are eyeing a great position in the leaderboard.

So far there are only 19 users in the promotion and there are only 2 more rounds left, so it's quite worth it.


to be honest, to get profits at the casino, you can, but you can't continuously get profits, but only win a few times and after that you will lose.

What's wrong with betting only every once in a while?

Being a good way or not depends on the user's determination to make money from that way.

Others might be interested to join those and there might others that not really a fan of joining a tournament. There's nothing wrong to try though as long as you understand well what you are doing.

Not a fan of those personally and I just want the usual way of how gambling is supposed to be.

Any bonus are worth it.

Even it's only 0.5$ - 1$, why? because I have some experience started from 1$ to 200$ with only 15-20 mins by doing all-in betting. Make the balance grow first to around 15-20$ by chasing low multiplier but keep all-in.

Then, after 20$ all-in 3-4x times. I reached that, from my referral balance.
That could be possible if you can have such luck, or else that bonuses can easily be wiped out by your losses. If you are after bonuses you should appreciate it regardless of its value because Bonuses are free from from just a simple task. Gambling also host a lot of bonuses, better to monitor that on the site where you are playing.

 Huh
btw after seeing the video it looks like it's not a bonus but it's an event or tournament held by BC.Game, someone has to survive until they can get a part of the place that has been determined by getting rid of other participants.
but I looked at the you tube profile photo it looks like it's you and I agree with what @Saint-loup said, if that's the case you better explain here about all the details you said in the video.
so that all of us here better understand what you said in the video.

Perhaps, for some people who can calculate the pros and cons of getting benefits from the bonus, it will be worth a try. But most people won't count as carefully as some people because they see a big number if they can get more points than others. And they think it's a great way to "make money" gambling but gambling is not a way to "make money."

If the odds are small, we can try to participate but if it's over $1 and we have a limited balance, I don't think it's worth trying. But each of them must have different thoughts and will try it if they think it's worth a try.

This bonuses is thoroughly calculated by the casino before they introduced it to their casino. I doubt someone can take advantage of this bonuses with low risk considering a user will play normally without using multiple account to cheat.

Only whale players can take advantage of this kind of bonuses because they are normally betting using high amount. Their participation is just a normal game for them unlike us that needs extra money just to qualify and meet the requirements.
That's why we as gamblers must also be wise in using these promotions because each promotion has a target of gamblers that the casino wants to get. Sometimes the bonus appears to be for all gamblers but if calculated more carefully, the bonus is only for gamblers who have wagered over $1000. Those of us who didn't qualify in the qualifications tried to enter and it turned out that the difference was very big. But that's okay because we may want to feel the experience and as long as we can limit the money we can gamble, we will be safe.

Every time there is a bonus offer, it's definitely worth trying as long as the rules are not difficult, especially for players who already know how to turn a few dollars into thousands of wagers because sometimes many players take bonuses to increase their account level in order to get a bigger profit than the bonus.
I didn't watch the video but the title is very tempting it's just that if it turns out that the title doesn't fully match the content it will cause dislike, and as some people have said maybe you can consider posting it in detail here not just in the form of a video.

Bonuses are good since you only have to do little but with that you'll only earn little. You can't expect to earn a lot of money with it. This is how most people get scammed because they grab the chances of investing little and expecting to earn learn. Those promises that are too good to be true is something that gamblers should be aware of.

When you become a participant in their promotion on their gambling platform, it does not mean that you will get 1k$ immediately, of course, it is not a scam because there is something you must do to be a part of this promotion.

For that kind of earning I think those who start early earns more and easily especially if they were able to refer others to do same thing using their links.

In one casino (with some sports promotion) we bet $10, in some other casino we bet $10 on the opposite result... did I get it wrong? We lose 50 cents per bet, but we get points for promotion. So basically we risk $20, but we can win promotional prizes. Did I get it right?

Yes, you got it right.

Even though you highlighted that "hedging" is prohibited, why would we do this? Don't you think that we are risking getting caught and banned from both casinos? I am not sure if that is even possible, but sports providers probably have their own ways of catching abusers. In my opinion, this is a gray area...

I tend to disagree - BC.game would only get more people interested in their site from the promo, did you know that Stake.us is paying $1 a day for Americans to play in their site? $1 a day, $365 for each player, potentially per year.

There is a growing competition, so encouraging new users who see this for instance, to want to get to VIP14 is already a bonus for BC.game

So no, I think this is not a gray area, on the contrary ... and yes, betting $10 with BC.game and $10 with Stake/Roobet/whoever - this is not hedging as you're not using the same site, and odds can always change and fluctuate (in this game there were tons of swings before the game even started).

So all in all it's a good thing for the player but also a good thing for the house, IMO.

The same picture as your avatar here is used by the owner of the video. Is it your own video actually? May I ask you why you chose to make a video instead of just explaining it in a post here? It would have been simpler and clearer for BTT users IMO.
Are there wagering requirements or any another condition to withdraw the rewards won? What does mean VIP14 ? People needs to reach this rank in order to participate to this tournament?
BTW when you hedge $100 on two outcomes @1.95, you are not "risking" $5. You are spending them.
$100 x 0.95 - $100 = $95 - $100 = - $5

The attached video explains the tournament of Bc.game and not a bonus. A tournament is required to beat other players based on the points system implemented by the casino. I don’t know about the number of players in that specific casino but it’s useless to pursue if there’s many active players in there since whale usually dominates tournament. Besides, it requires VIP 14 in able to participate so it’s not for everyone.

A casino bonus typically an add ons reward for doing a certain task and not by competing with other user. There’s no way to take advantage on a tournament except if no one or few user only participate on it.
Thanks for that shortcut and that means that it's not for everyone and if OP can be part of this tournament then just proceed and enjoy every single eligible tournaments that you can participate on that casino. While for most bonuses, it's common that there's no easy bonus that shall be done by a casino unless it's just a giveaway and there's no other requirement that participants have to do but just to dropby their username just like what we have in games and rounds section of the forum. As said, most bonuses aren't like that and they've got some specific requirements that are needed to be filled for the users. If you're fortunate to have it filled then just do go with it and see where your luck will bring you with small amount of capital.

Thank you for the explanation, as I don't have to click on that video hehehe. So it's a tournament, so yeah it means that there are a lot who is also going to enter in it for the price money. So your odds are going to be very low winning here. So I don't think it's going to be worth at all.

But for the bonus though it's a different story, like free spins in a slot, then yeah, why not take it? Maybe you are lucky that time and that your bonus might turn into real money. Or those you get from casino in sports betting, something you are given that free money to make a bet, and so I will take that opportunity as well to turn around and win some.

Yes, it is worth it. I was also able to make 160$ from my bonus using free spins on a site but when they notice that their new players are making too much profit from their bonuses, they have set a specific wagered amount before withdrawal.
It all depends on the casino but if you're making a good profit out of small capital then why not pursue it? However, I don't think casinos will continuously allow their players to benefit from bonuses without asking for specific wagering amounts because it could affect their site in the long run.

I  guess you got lucky during that time.  I wonder if you are able to duplicate it?  I got my bonus at less than 50 cents grow to more than $300   when I hit  a bonus round in my first spin on slots and be able to get huge multiplier from that bonus.  It does not happen again though.  Grin

Downside to some is; most of the bonuses are consumable only in the platform and is not an amount you can withdraw in an instant. Most of the time, gambling token is the reward which is a part of their marketing strategy; to encourage players to experience their platform for the tendency of players being dragged or hooked to the platform itself. Only few gambling platforms are giving away bonuses which are withdrawable but are also limited to an amount. The idea here is that, a gambling house cannot allow players to earn that much without spending simply because it will be a loss on their end. You'd only be able to maximize bonuses if you will win in the platform using those bonuses.

I think it all depends on the terms and conditions of the bonus if there is a wagering requirement then we have to comply on it but once the requirement is met, I believe we are free to withdraw the bonus and the money won from it.

Faucet or small bonuses is never been that worth for you to mind off on making it big because it is really that impossible most of the time.If you do find yourself do see this kind of projection into your mind on getting withdrawal out of those small amounts then better think not because it would really be creating that desperation which might end up for you to make a deposit.We do know on how bonuses does works and whats the true intent on why its been existing. Casinos wont really be creating these things for nothing.

I think well established casinos have put mechanisms in place to prevent this,wagering requirement being the best in my opinion when you play in the casino and betting all the money you have deposited in sport bets before being able to withdraw,this is enough I think to prevent people who want to abuse,for other people who think are "smarter" and use multi accounting the casino have also in place mechanisms to prevent those by checking a lot of patterns before deciding to punish the "smart" persons and they do once they have enough evidence.From my point of view I fully agree with casinos as I that use only one account have never had a single problem with them.

In the video not everything is explained correctly as pointed out by many other users and I don't know about Bc.game as I don't use it but as I said in well established casinos you cannot take advantages of the bonuses,the bonuses are just to give you a boost to your balance.

Only whale players can take advantage of this kind of bonuses because they are normally betting using high amount. Their participation is just a normal game for them unlike us that needs extra money just to qualify and meet the requirements.
Exactly! People should really be knowing this basic concept on how these things works because there's no way that we could really be able to utilize nor really see make out some advantage out of these bonuses but rather it would really be just prolonging yourself on your gaming session nothingless.If you are that lucky enough then you would definitely be able to make money with this but dont expect much since we do speak about these things which does have their corresponding terms and conditions before you could make out some withdrawal which we do know that it isnt something that achievable.
Even if you are a whale then it wont really be making out guarantees but just like been said that there would really be differences on how much things been given out.

Previously, did you yourself believe in what was explained in the video?
It should be noted that all casinos will not let gamblers easily benefit from small bets because as much as possible even though casinos provide bonuses, they will also provide wagering requirements that can make gamblers spend more money to bet.
Don't put too much trust in anyone in gambling because it could only make you lose more money.
You can make money from gambling easily, but at one point you don't know if you can still earn money or even lose a lot of money because gambling is an activity that can spend large amounts of money in just a short time.

In the video, the minimum bet required is $5 but with the small number of players in the leaderboard and 200 prizes up for grabs i'd say it's worth it for now. As long as the leaderboard doesn't change much after that round then they're one step closer to securing some good profit since the prizes are good even the minimum prize which is 151-200th place will still give you $10 worth and that's still twice as the minimum bet which could cover your losses.

Then again though it only takes one big bet to take over the first place or one of the top spots since there's no maximum bet mentioned.

 Huh
Bonus can be a good extra but don't expect its big especially if you are gambling with small money only.
If you are into bonuses then I can say referral bonuses are more profitable especially if you have a good network of gamblers which you can invite using your own link. Every gambling site have their own promotions strategy and giving bonuses is one of those, read every instructions so you can know what to do.
