    I think you can spread it out but not 100% sure. I staked the £5, got my money back and now await the bonus being credited.

    Cheers, sky.

    lol so assuming u put a pound on a time.......

    full house = £9
    flush         =£6
    2 pair        =£2
    pair           =£1

    minus stake =£5    (assuming u only had 5 goes! but u get this back)  

    total win     =£13!!!!!    dohhhhhhhh @ dohhhhhhh

    with the stake back that was £18!!!

    thats why i had a practice first!!!

    it is a bit sneaky how they do it though with the collect or gamble option!!

    and yes i got your pm lol!!! do u dare me to post it here??

    not sure if i can as some people seem to have a sense of humor failure here!!

    Must admit, sky do offersome decent promotions for it's players.

    Compare this offer to the e-mail I dot this morning from another site. I'd never played there, and to be honest, only play poker and don't bother with the casino gaming side of things. Regardless, I had a look at the e-mail this morning, and the terms and conditions were superb;

    1. Wager your bonus amount 30 times in the Instant Play Casino Main Lounge within 14 days. Unfortunately Euro Roulette, Roulette, Craps, Baccarat, Single Deck Blackjack, Pick’em BlackJack, all Zero Lounge games and the play in the Download Casino are excluded from the promotion.
    2. After you have wagered your bonus 30 times it will be converted into cash in your casino balance. For example, if you transfer £50 to the casino you will need to stake £1,500 over the first 14 days to get your £50 bonus. You can stake the £1,500 over multiple games, multiple visits and playing any staking level you wish.

    That's a cracking 'offer' isn't it?! ha ha

    One pair pays the same as your stake so if you bet £1 you win £1 so you've broke even and it will show £0 in your account, mine is the same.

    You win £9 for a full house minus your £1 stake you are £8 in profit.

    On the subject of this promotion has anyone received their £5 yet.

    Ever promo/bonus i've entered on here (starting with the welcome bonus) i've had to contact customer services to get it paid.


    Mine has been paid without me having to chase it up.

    Well done sky hopefully this is how it will continue.
