I'm back and on the lookout

I'm back after being busy with a new project.

I'll have time for a little gambling now and be looking for the best deals on the market.

Look out for twitter update posts too.

Free bets reviewed

It's Grand National time and the bookies are try to win your loyalty

Paddy Power have a worthwhile promotion. Free £20 bet if you place a single £10 bet. Usual conditions of the free bet stake not included in the returns and not valid for multiples etc but I think a very good deal if you are looking to bet on the Grand National

FREE £20 BET



Corals are offering what seems to be a free £10 bet but looking at the terms and conditions today you have to £30 worth of bets to qualify. This is a 33% bonus on what you bet so is a good bonus.

BetUK have been a little quiet but they are offering a free matched bet of between £10 and £25. You must bet £100 before you can claim the bonus which is not unreasonable. You are in effect receiving a 25% bonus on whatever you bet.

Totesport are offering a free matched bet of up to £25. It is for a win single and is matched to your first bet. It must also be placed on the day of registration.
Open a new account, bet between £5 and £25 and they will match it with a bet token to bet on a win single for up to 30 days. A good offer if you were planning to bet up to £25 on the Grand National.

Look at this offer here


I almost forgot to mention Betfair. Probably as I use it all the time without thinking. You will get excellent odds particularly on the higher priced horses. I have managed to secure the following bets:-

Black Apalachi @ 74-1, Naunton Brook @ 399-1, Baily Breeze @ 99-1 and Backbeat at 179-1 and I won't lose a penny if I lay some of this off at lower prices:-)

I also have the following place bets Naunton Brook 94-1 and In the high Grass 189-1

Eveing taking into account the 5% commission I will pay I am very pleased with the bets :-)

It may look a little daunting at first but if you only want to back then find the market you are interested in, untick the Back & Lay and Market Depth buttons and use it like any other online bookies but with some better prices. If you are unsure leave me a comment and I'll try and help.


If you follow this link and join you will receive £25 and you only have to match £25 worth of bets.



I'll have a look around to see if any other promotions are worth mentioning.

Free easter egg from Thorntons. Couldn't resist listing!

This is not a casino bonus but it is free and I can never resist free items. Be quick as it must be before 21st March. It is only available in the UK.

Poker Bonus Alert

Paradise Poker is the first poker room I joined many years ago in the early days of online Poker.

They are currently offering up to €500 (about £400) matched bonus.

An extract from their terms and conditions.
"1. The €500 Signup bonus will be available to your account the first time you login to ParadisePoker. You must transfer a minimum of €5 to activate it and you must transfer €500 to receive the maximum bonus. The bonus release is €5 for every 100 FPP points earned. Any points you accumulate against your bonus can then be used to enter any of our FPP tournaments. You will not lose points by redeeming your bonus "

"Earn 1 FPP for every €0.25 you rake"

The pace of online poker is fairly fast so the FPP soon mount up.

The difference from other online poker sites is that you get to use your frequent player points to to play tournaments and they still count towards redeeming your bonus.

They also run beginner and freeroll tournaments which makes it a good bonus for people new to poker.

The site is fast, friendly and reliable and their support was always excellent. I have never had any problems with withdrawals, security etc and the play is fairly easy.

They will regularly email you more promotions once you are signed up to keep you at Paradise.

Definitely worth a look.

Free Online Poker DVD available

I have found out that a site I use regularly has copies of Dominate Online Poker. It's a good start for people wanting to learn poker and brush up on some advance skills.

The site is SWAPSHOP.co.uk

It's a site where I swap books/DVDs/CDs that I no longer want or were bought as unsuitable gifts. You can swap your unwanted stuff for points and then spend them. You can also buy points if you have nothing to swap or insufficient points.

Last look Dominate Online Poker was only 2 points (£2 including delivery if you have to buy the points !)

I am looking for decent bonuses at the minute including doing the boring stuff like checking the terms and conditions. If you know of any good ones, rogues or ones you would like me to check let me know.

Welcome to my new Blog

I have now been blacklisted from a lot of the online casinos. As soon as I join my account is closed. They didn't like me making money out of them:-)

I enjoyed making money out of online casinos for a few years. They have plenty of offers and try to lure you in with bonuses. Some of which are very good and there is a chance of making a profit. Some you have to play and gamble way too much to justify the reward.

I have been using poker bonuses for a little while now but have managed to stay out of trouble.

In this blog I will try and find you some of the best bonuses around.

Breaking News - One of my still active accounts just gave me £50 free for staking £25 on a no lose basis! No strings attached. That's what I call free money.
