novice slots and obc credit

[Ms Jo UK]

OK I have some obc and everything is paid for.  I thought I might play some slots so I have a question, if for example I load the machine with say $100 on my account and win (optimistic here) $50 and then cash out, will I receive $150 or just the $50 winnings.  Please forgive the novice question.

150, in theory you shouldn't but you will. However if you make too many many small downloads and keep cashing out your card will be frozen in the casino for 24 hours 

If you want to get most of your OBC as cash and have fun at the same time our preferred method is to play roulette.

Buy 💲40 in chips - these will be promotional chips that can't be cashed out.

Choose the wheel with a single Zero and a 💲5 minimum bet.

Bet the 5 x 💲1 chips each spin with each chip covering 4 numbers. Ensure you don't cover any one  number twice. A win gives you 💲8 

This basically gives you a 50/50 bet.

Keep the winnings separately as these are real cash.

Continue to bet with the promotional chips until they are gone. Cash in your winnings and walk away. 

Repeat daily or however many times you like.

Never chase loses.

We play this system every cruise and over a whole cruise have only lost once. You will never make a fortune but will have a lot of fun.

Simply put - promo chips bought with OBC must be bet.  Winnings can be cashed out.

Yes. However on roulette you have make sure the Croupier gives you cash chips for winnings not more promotional ones. In May we had an issue because when we went to cash out the Croupier refused to give us cash chips insisting that any winnings made with Promotional Chips had to be with more Promotional ones. We asked for the Manager who apologised and said the Croupier was new and  he would refund our 💲40 as cash. We pointed out that we had won 💲20 over our original stake. The Manager went off to review the CCTV and when he returned said we hadn't been 💲20 up but 💲25 up! Laughs and handshakes all round. 

The Slots seem to work differently and there have been numerous posts claiming that people put day 💲50 on, just play a couple of dollars then cash out the remaing 💲48.
