Anyone actually cleared the All Star Casino welcome bonus?
Grinding the All Star welcome bonus right now too and honestly the wagering is dragging on me π₯± Want to know if other Kiwis actually got through it or just let it die. I'm usually a straight pokies bloke - on my favourite slot every evening, hit big last night on it ngl π€π°. So an extra grind on top feels like homework ah well. Curious what the terms looked like when you guys signed up, whether the free spins counted towards it properly or if the bonus was basically dead weight π°π₯
One slot, one love π°
Chipping away at that welcome bonus myself, mate, the grind is real but I keep the bet per spin tiny and just treat it like a marathon rather than chasing hits on every spin π
My rule is simple: once the wagering's cleared, whatever's left gets banked straight away, because cashing out in time is everything. Haven't let one die yet π°
Bonus taken, wagering cleared.
cleared one like that years back, tiny bets, no chasing, walked away the moment wagering was done. greed's what kills the grind, fellas π
I remember the old slots first-hand.
Maybe I'm being dumb but is the wagering per bonus amount or deposit+bonus? That changes everything π
cheering for you blokes either way π
Learning to clear wagering, go easy π
MissFortuneVegas asked the same thing I was too scared to π
I assumed deposit+bonus but honestly no idea. Danny's right though. Tiny bets and cash out the moment wagering clears. Almost there on mine π

MissFortuneVegas, read the terms on yours before you spin another one, deposit+bonus versus bonus-only wagering is the difference between a grind and a death march, and I've let a bonus die by not checking that once π My own All Star run: kept the bet per spin low, cleared the wagering, whatever was left went straight to a cashout before I could talk myself into "one more session" π°π° Bankroll discipline wins, boring as that sounds.
That deposit+bonus vs bonus-only question just saved me a headache too π
I'm only partway through the All Star wagering and haven't checked which one mine is, so cheers Sam. Tiny bets is the way, I've been spinning low and it's slow but at least the bonus isn't dead yet π

Checked my All Star terms the other day, mine's bonus-only wagering, sweet as. Low bet per spin and let it grind, the balance just needs to survive until wagering clears π₯
Bonus taken, wagering cleared.
@QueenOfSpins_VIP888 bonus-only is the only kind worth touching tbh, deposit+bonus wagering on a welcome offer is just a slow way to donate your own cash. Grind it tiny and pray basically π half the punters in here "clearing" it end up back at zero by pay day anyway, house always wins long-run π€‘πΈ
A paper win won't feed you.
QueenOfSpins that bonus-only thing must be such a relief π
I haven't checked which type mine is yet, doing that tonight before I spin. Tiny bets all the way for me too π

@RngGodGate good plan, checking the terms first saved me a headache on my welcome bonus π
still not sure mine counts free spins towards the wagering properly π

@OneMoreSpinMode yeah the free spins contribution bit is where they get ya, some of them count spins at like nothing towards the wagering. I learned that after burning a welcome bonus thinking my spins were doing the heavy lifting π€£ my bank left in style that week. Read the fine print on which games count too, one more spin, promise π
One more spin, promise.
Cleared the All Star welcome bonus last month and smashed the free spins into a proper hit π₯ worth the grind if your wagering is bonus-only imo, just keep bets tiny π
@OneMoreSpinMode check the terms for the spin contribution percentage, most sites bury it in a table. I got burned on a welcome offer once thinking my free spins were clearing wagering, turns out they counted at barely anything. Now I work out my bet per spin first, usually NZ$0.20 to $0.40 on a clearance grind, so the bankroll survives the variance while the wagering ticks over. If spins count low you basically have to do the yards on the pokies that count 100%, keeps the maths honest π₯
Cashing out in time is half the battle.
