Sticky Bonus

One non-traditional bonus is the sticky bonus, where the conditions of the casino specify a bonus for "betting only". Do not stick to this label, though. If you fully understand the bonus's underlying concepts, it can be applied to various gambling situations overall.

Technically, this sticky bonus can be worth about the same as traditional bonuses to well-bankrolled and knowledgeable gamblers, although it isn't possible to withdraw a sticky bonus. Instead, sticky bonuses have to be played differently before its complete value can be taken out.

Examples

If a casino provides a sticky bonus of $200 for every deposit of $100, you can deposit that money to get an extra $100. If you bet $200 at a blackjack game (the whole account balance that you have), you can either lose or win $200 (or even push, where you can then bet that $200 again).

If you end up a winner and stop playing, the whole balance can be withdrawn into your account without your bonus of $100, which means that $300 can be withdrawn for owns of $200 on $100 deposits.

However, if you end up losing and quitting, you will just lose a total of $100 - your deposit.

Because there is a 50% chance of winning and a 50% chance of losing, you can win $200 or lose $100.

Therefore, if your strategy entails placing a bet and quitting afterwards, whether you lose or win, your played $100 bonus would have a total worth of $50 as more time goes by.

So what happens if you choose to take your money out after your first win? And what happens if you choose to play the bonus?

Your account has $400 it now - the deposit of $100, the win of $200 and the sticky bonus of $100. Out of all of this, you own $300; the only thing that cannot be taken out is the sticky bonus. If all of it is bet on blackjack and you end up winning, you will win $400. Conversely, if you lose, you will lose $300 - the deposit of $100, plus the previous winnings of $200 and the sticky bonus of $100.

In a nutshell, the sticky bonus's catalo value will depend on your risk tolerance. So, how much money would you risk your winnings for to get smaller bonus increments? If you simply love gambling overall, this sticky bonus value makes everything extra fun. Enjoy!
