Recession Advice for Online Casino Players

by Bodog Casino | Nov 4 2008

America’s bankroll isn’t too thick right now. If you’ve watched CNN, MSNBC, or yes, even Fox News you’d know that the U.S. economy is as stable as Amy Winehouse in a crackhouse.

Even if a new prez comes in to clean up the mess, we’re due to watch our money go through an obstacle course before it all stables out.

That begs the question: Can you still make money in online casinos if you have less to risk?

If there’s a will, there’s a way, we say. We’ve got some tips to ensure your casino dollar does better than the Dow Jones:

Find the Best Deals
What’s the first thing you do when you’re low on cash? You start shopping for the best deals, right? Well, you should do the same with online casinos. Online gaming is a competitive business and casinos will give some sweet bonuses for your business.

Right now, the Bodog Casino is giving its players a 50 percent bonus just for depositing $50! Not even Wal-Mart can match a deal that sweet.

Find Games That’ll Give Your Dollar Legs
Yes, these games do exist. They may not be as rewarding as one lucky spin of Roulette but there are some casino games that can make you some steady money, or at least not burn your cash away in under five minutes.

Pai Gow Poker has been known as a table game where your dollar could last a while. Blackjack, if you play your cards right, is a game that’s been known to stretch your cash. And Jacks or Better video poker can be a profitable experience as long as you stick to some simple rules we outlined in our Jacks or Better Optimal Strategy column.

Careful With that Cash
How do you think the U.S. got into this mess anyway? The bigwigs bit off trillions more than they could chew. So try not to repeat their mistakes even when you’re feeling “lucky.” Deposit a certain amount to play and act like it’s the last piece of cash you’ll ever have in your account. Amazing things can happen when your money feels desperate so try to play cautious with your cash to help stretch it out. And, as usual, try to keep your betting amounts low. There’s nothing wrong with dollar bets in Blackjack.
