I just want to say how great I think Casino GrandBay and Bella Vegas are.
I have been a member of both casinos for a couple of years now, and the staff is terrific no matter if I am talking to them via phone or via email, they always answer my questions promptly. And I have found the games to be very fair.
Below is a copy of my cashouts from both casinos for the past 30 days, ( I have won other times at both places also and always by depositing $50 or less)

I don't like Grand Bay's and Bella Vegas's promotions. They won't let you play Blackjack or Video Poker if you receive a bonus. They will let you play slots with a bonus, but slots are for gambling addicts. And I will never play any Microgaming casino w/o a bonus. And you shouldn't either.

Yep, they sure are great... NOT!!

They cancelled payment on two checks sent to me. I got refunded in the end but I see absolutely no reason to pick these guys over some of the much better Micro's out there like 32Red and Ladbrokes.

Dirk I think you are so full of crap it is coming out your eyebrows.
I have also won and cashed out on some of the bonuses I get on ladies night there.
I also play at most Microgaming casinos without a bonus because I like the games and I can get more play for my money.

And what the hell makes you think that slots are for gambling addicts?
I would assume that most members here and at casinos play the slots and would take offense to what you just said.

And CGB doesn't have any different rules than any other casino out there about what you can and cannot play the bonuses on.
Tell me what reputable casino out there will let you play your bonus on blackjack and/or video poker??

I also don't give a rats ass where you decide to play at, I will spend my money at what ever casino I see fit and CGB and Bella Vegas just happen to be one of them.
Along with some other microgaming (oops I said it) casinos

Oh and by the way Dirk-Dangerous is a good name because you ae dangerously giving out false info and are a dork

I am sorry to hear that jpsartre
On my first win all I had to do was fax them the required forms and I have never had a problem since.

I email or call support when and if I want to cash out and ask them to flush my account.
It is usually done within a half hour and the payment is processed the next morning and in my neteller account by that afternoon

If you don't believe me I will be more than happy to paste my Neteller deposit info from them on here.

I have to agree, Casino Grand Bay does have some of the best customer support and do facilitate cash outs in less than 48 hours, usually the next day. That means in your neteller account the next day!

But, with that being said, MG does still cheat! Maybe Lucky Nugget was trying to tell me something when they sent me a free Weber Grill. "HA HA... We cooked your azz!"

:P

tell me something when they sent me a free Weber Grill

Now that is funny~~~ I wonder if Sunny Grp (even though they are Platech, sorry but I always think of Platex when I see that name) was trying to tell people something when they sent some of them boxes of chocolate for Xmas last year

Of course I have to agree with you there are some poor MG casinos out there, however I also feel there are some reputable ones

3 posts here only, all 3 posts are promoting the same casinos. I am sorry but I won't give you too much credits here.
This forum is for players to post their experience on casinos. I think this thread should be moved to somewhere else.
As to which reputable casinos allow us to play VP or BJ, there are too many to list here. I have no problem for people to play slots, keno or Bingo. However this is winneronline where most posters play BJ or VP . It's where people lean how to be a winner, not a gambling addict.

Frankly, I can think of more reputable places to play than this. Case in point, in April of this year Casino Grand Bay ran an Arbor Day promo that promised a 25% bonus up to $500. You had to wager your deposit once to receive the bonus. I did this, losing several hundred in the process, but received nothing. I contacted them repeatedly and was told that they would get back to me, but never did. I eventually gave up and cashed out my balance.

All the Fortune Lounge casinos will let you play BJ and VP with a bonus. The also use Microgaming software and they pay.

There are many other Microgaming casinos that will let you play BJ or Video Poker.

I repeat, slots are for idiots and gambling addicts. Sorry, but if you know anything about gambling, you know that slots are a very bad game to play. The house edge is way to high, and you will lose a lot of money.

So unitil Casino Grand Bay and Bella Vegas change their rules, they are very poor casinos. There are much better online casinos to play.

Ok
First of all to Dirk, I have played at Fortune Lounge casinos quite a bit also, but I always seem to win at CGB/BV on the slots there and as I said for $50 deposits.

Also you all say that this is a place for people who play BJ/VP yet I see threads where you are telling people to go after their money from Virtual Bingo sites, which
as far as I am concerned is the most ridiculous place to play any money. One from you Dirk in particular states that grown men don't play Bingo but yet in the same thread you encourage the person to go after his money from Joe.
Make up your mind there Dirk

If any of you are serious BJ/VP players you would be playing at a land based casino where you can see the dealer face to face.

Soooooo what's the problem??

Eh? :)
They don't call slot machines vacuum cleaners for nothing and a lot of serious VP is done and won online. Not that all slot players are addicts as not all drinkers are alcoholics... :)

And alot of slots on won online also hence ask anyone who has won a progressive.
However I must point out and perhaps I failed too in my first post.
The cashouts I displayed were made with bonus deposits I got for being a VIP member, each time I played the slots until I met the wagering requirements and than started playing PP WildDeuces VP. (calling customer support of course first to make sure I had met the wagering requirments for the bonus before I went on to VP)
The one time I hit 4 Wild Deuces on all 4 lines.
I have hit 3 Natural Royals on VP Wild Deuces at CGB in the past 6 months.
I like both slots and VP and if you can use the slots to meet your wagering requirments on the bonuses and hopefully give you enough to play VP why not do it??
I start out on VP at the lowest coin size always doing max bet and if the game is hot at the time, increase the coin size from there.
So far it is working for me so why change it??
Personally I hate online BJ because I want to be able to see the person dealing my BJ cards face to face.
I will take on anyone of you at a real life poker table and or BJ table, but I seriously doubt any of you could handle that, since it is so much easier to say that a machine ripped you off than to tell a black jack dealer face to face that he ripped you off

Oh by the way.. I hear that Slotchik has opened up a new gambling forum for serious gamblers only...
I suggest you go join

This is a really silly discussion. Of course nobody is denying that it is possible to win big on slots. However, it is just a fact that it is a game with a low payout (compared to other games) and a huge variance. Therefore, a bonus that allows you to play pretty much nothing but slots is obviously a worse bonus then one that allows you to play whatever you want.

Cause it is very likely you are NOT a player. 99.999% posters that make their first post to promote casinos are shills. Real players would say something else first.

hhf... I see you have become a bit "jaded", as many others have, toward new posters. :eek:

iataz is NOT a shill. She has been active on various forums for a long time.

Nice to see you posting here, iataz. :D :D

I am sorry then.
I guess those shills really pissed me off. Having 20+ spamming per day is not pleasant at all.

Thanks for the welcome mrracetrack,good to be here.
Hhcfreebie.. Apology accepted, as I too am always leary of first time posters, especially when they are promoting a casino and we both know spammers are a dime a dozen.I should have known better, my fault as much as yours.


But let me assure you that I have no vested interest ( affiliate accounts in this casino or any other one for that matter)
I just know that my experience with them for the past few years has been good.

Also if you would reread my posts I didn't say I won big on slots. What I said was I used the slots to meet my wagering requirements and than after that started playing VP hitting big on that.
