Free Money is converted to real money just by playing on our site, and never expires! Free Money can be earned when you make a deposit or through redeeming your Player's Club points.</p><br><br><p>Casino / Sportsbook</p><br></ol> <p>As you play any of our casino games or wager on sports your Free Money balance will be used in tandem with your real money at a ratio of 29 to 1, for every $30 wagered $29 will be taken from your Real Money account and $1 from your Free Money account. No amount can be withdrawn from the Free Money account. All winnings are credited to Real money. For example, you deposit $250 and receive $250 in your Free Money account. You would wager $7500 to consume all your bonus money, only a 15x roll over on a 100% bonus!</p> <p>Live Dealer</p> <br><p>Our Free Money promotional currency cannot be wagered in our Live Dealer Casino.</p><br><br>Poker<br><p>Free Money is automatically converted to Real Money based on VIP Point accumulation. You simply need to play poker and collect 80 VIP Points for each $1 of Free Money in your poker account. Free Money is converted in $10 increments and instantly added to your Real Money poker account.

The email states 'free $20', not 'free $20 bonus'. 11:03 CS Arlene: It's says Free $20 that you can use, the email did not says Real money that you can use. 11:03 Chris Coreau: please forward this chat to whoever sent me th email to begin with. 11:03 CS Arlene: There's no Real money mentioned on the email. 11:03 CS Arlene: It's not mislead because on the email it never says Real money. 11:03 Chris Coreau: nor does it say bonus 11:04 CS Arlene: I will forward the chat to the proper department. 11:04 Chris Coreau: OddsMaker.ag would like to make this birthday even happier by giving you a free $20 to use in our sportsbook and casino. 11:04 CS Arlene: But like what I said all birthday bonus here is under free money. 11:04 Chris Coreau: it can't be used! 11:04 Chris Coreau: simple enough! 11:04 Chris Coreau: MISLEADING... 11:04 CS Arlene: Anythinh else? 11:05 CS Arlene: I already explained everything no one complaining here on how free money works. 11:05 Chris Coreau: bye Arlene...hope you find $100 on the ground...wait, it's not real unless it says $100 Real Money 11:06 Chris Coreau: bye 11:06 CS Arlene: Thank you for chatting. If you have other concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us again. Customer Support is available 24/7. Good Luck! </ol> My whole point i that it is worded to make you feel like the $20 is a gift and it truly isn't. It is in association with play money and real monies have to be spent in order to get the play money released in small increment. That's my understanding of the whole process of B.S!
Luck Club - $10Jackpot Capital - $50Slotastic - $25I have never made a deposit at any of the casinos I received bonuses from and was pretty disappointed I got nothing from my favorite depositing casinos (Club World, WinPalace, Silver Oak). Didn't win anything, but really enjoyed playing the 3 bonuses I did get.
Glad you got something to help you celebrate your special day. 
Take care and thanks for the post. Pam
But thank goodness for the Jackpot Capital group! They rock! 
Were you able to make any cash outs?Wishing you great luck. Pam
