Rakeback and promotions for limited time

[uneng]

Some casinos give gamblers the opportunity to earn extra satoshis by rewarding them a small percentage of the total sum of money gamblers have wagered on the platform. It's a kind of cashback feature which greatly varifies in values from one casino to another and depending the game (poker offers the highest rakeback percentages I've seen). Besides this feature, from times to times, special promotions with similar rules and benefits to players may appear aiming to raise the popularity of the website, and incentivizing people to spend more time and money at the casino.

Do you take advantage of these features or do you think they don't worth? Do you have any strategies to play and increase your profit through rakeback or do you just ignore it? By your experience, have rakeback ever been profitable for you?

Any personal experiences you can share are appreciated!

I do ignore it!

I dont mind those amounts considering that rakebacks arent really that great amount for you to mind off and asking if its worth? No its not but there are people who are really that prefer or do likes to get something in
return even though it isnt really that big but at least they are getting in overall total wager.This might sound interesting for some people but majority wont really be that interested much for this one.
Its actually depending on someones preference yet in overall promotions are just good for hooking up people and setting up almost impossible wager requirements. rakeback
is different though but its not really something for you to get excited on.

I'm not much of a poker player so the pros know better about rakebacks.

I don't chase promotions in general and I don't play for the sake of it. It's probably worth the money if you're already a regular at a particular casino. I mean most promotions like cashback gives a higher percentage to accounts with higher level.

Do you have any strategies to play and increase your profit through rakeback or do you just ignore it?

Just playing as usual. Focus on winning the game than thinking of how much rakeback I could get.

I bet mostly on sports games, mainly football and in this niche the incentives offered by bookmakers are much lower compared to gambling or poker.

To answer your question... I've never benefited much from them, as the imposed goals for input or bets are often above my playing standard.
but I recognize that for those who bet more often and with higher values, these incentives can greatly help the player to have more opportunities to win.

It's worth it if you are not relying on it solely to get profit. Cashback and rakeback supposed be just a small bonus for playing in the casino so that whenever you lose, You will have a reward even if its just small.

You can maximize your rakeback by having a huge bank roll and play passively without aiming for huge profit because you can't get a better rakeback if you don't play much longer since its wager base.

I just ignore it, I commented it in another thread.

First, because rake has gone up considerably just as rakeback has gone down since I started playing more than 10 years ago. But also the rakeback implies to play much more hours so the winrate is affected. It's not worth losing bb/100 winrate to get a little rakeback. In most cases it will be break even or even EV-.

Years ago there were very good rakeback programs like Pokerstars Supernova, which was not the only one, and people were compensated to play more for what they got in return but nowadays not.

If they just offer rakeback to everyone who joins the room, I'd probably be in a room all the time. Unfortunately its not how they do it because that would cost them a lot of money.

One would have to stick playing in the room for hours so while you lose large sum, you get lucky if you receive $100 for rakeback. You'd enjoy rakeback when you are in a real offline casino.

[Wexnident]

I ignore them most of the time. Mostly because to maximize them, it's like considering spending more on a session than what you've originally intended to do so. I mean it's fine if it's there if it's able to give me more money to play with but I don't necessarily make it a goal to actively maximize the rewards and profits you could get from it. It's a side bonus, the casino considers it as one really, we players should be able to also consider it as well imo. It's a small Rakeback in the first place most of the time anw.

[traderethereum]

I don't take advantage of that feature and just play as usual but sometimes, I can get bonuses from the deposits I make.
I am not looking for various payback or cashback bonuses because I think the casinos must have rules that not many gamblers can achieve.
Chasing rakeback or bonuses will make us forget ourselves and keep trying to get it by making more deposits.
It's better to play as usual and not chase it because it will cost a lot of money.

I'm not much of a poker player so the pros know better about rakebacks.

I think it has nothing to do with specific game such as poker, rakeback available almost in all casino for all kind of games. All gamblers knows about rakeback, no need to be a pro. In very simple explanation, rakeback is just something that you get back based on how much you have wagered on the casino. Rakeback is an important thing to have in casino, real players cares about it as they can get something back if they lose while wagering or they can get extra money if they win while wagering.

This is what every poker player will want, it is not common on any other Casinos. But this does not mean there is any advantage added to win but just a way someone lose and be given some amount back and plaay with it.

The best is to just ignor it and never think it is existing and have fun with your poker game.

Rakeback is an important thing to have in casino, real players cares about it as they can get something back if they lose while wagering or they can get extra money if they win while wagering.

But what I noticed is that I have not seen rackback in any other casinos before but only Poker casinos. I do not see it as an important feature than a way for poker players to be encouraged and have more time to play more.

Do you take advantage of these features or do you think they don't worth?

It is a waste if we don't take advantage of this kind of feature.  It is clear money, whether we win or lose, we get back the % of the amount we wagered on the casino so it worth to take part in kind of promotion.

Do you have any strategies to play and increase your profit through Rakeback or do you just ignore it?

No, I just play to my heart's content and don't think of any strategy to maximize the Rakeback.  IF ever I think of a strategy, that is to strategize on how to beat the casino, but it is quite impossible so I won't bother. 

By your experience, have rakeback ever been profitable for you?

I can't tell if it is profitable but all I can say is that it is a free money so why not take it.

I always take them if it falls under the games i'm playing and there's no wagering requirement behind it because I remember there are casinos that offer these cashback and rakebacks but there's a wagering requirement. It's best to go for them as much as possible since it's one way to reduce your losses. My only experience with rakebacks are from Stake's vip feature and with the cashback, there was a time when casinos would have a dedicated day for cashback and they'd return a portion of your losses if you deposit on the same day.

[swogerino]

The only feature that I like is not any rakeback but the promotion which is held as different tournaments where the winner is the one with the greatest amount of money wagered and it doesn't matter at which kind of bet you are playing.I think this type of promotion gives everyone an equal chance to win at a tournament and of course here there is a "cheat sheet" as the smart gambler plays only slots with high hit percentage in order to stay longer in the game thus wagering more money I mean for those who play with minimum bet.If anyone decide to play with big base bet,he will be the winner most likely.I only like this kind of promotions from a casino.

I don't mind claiming Rakeback I consider this a token of appreciation for playing and losing   many casinos are offering this but like what you posted you should not play just to get Rakeback aim for a win if you can and if you lose just let it be and don't be disappointed it's part of the game and of course, claim your Rakeback it's one way of the casino of thanking you.

Maybe you didn't try to compete on casino website tournament with whales wagering million dollars per day. Makeback is a guarantee money base on your wager which means this is fair distribution of bonus especially if you are wageeing hige amount while in tournament, There’s no guarantee that you will win and get back the portion of your bet. I participate in my casino tournament and a 10K$ wager volume is not sufficient to be in top 10 so I prefer rakeback over tournament unless the tournament is exclusive to normal class user.

[Despairo]

I'd take advantages of this, there's nothing wrong or hard to claim a rakeback or bonus as long as you're already met the requirement. I know this is a peanut for many people, but this is our money and it's our right to claim it, maybe after you're run out of your bankroll, this peanut might hit the jackpot and you still have a chance to recover your lose. Everything is possible, that's why I never waste any chance if I can do it.

[dothebeats]

I ignore these. It just gives you some other things to think of which, in turn, helps you lose focus on the things that matter to you at that moment, e.g. playing and enjoying/winning. Thinking of these rakebacks and special wage promotions only give you another goal that you shouldn't even chase which I know a lot of people here are guilty. Why aim for cents or a couple of dollars when you can play for the win and gain even more in the end? It's nice when you get the bonus while you\re playing without you knowing. Anything extra for my playtime is welcome, and I understand why people love to play on casinos with these bonuses, but personally I never looked forward to those.

I agree, the amount isn't much since the reward comes from the house edge of the casino it's better to just play regularly but it's still better to play with casinos that offer these types of bonuses though.

Basically, those are wagering competitions, most casinos have these regularly and sometimes in different forms like using wagered amounts or bets placed as points. For me, I always avoid these competitions as much since my budget isn't huge and worth risking over the competition unless there are several placements and I could easily place with minimal losses.

Any personal experiences you can share are appreciated!

I also ignore rakeback.  The presence of an additional reward can seem very tempting and inspire the player. 

However, this is a psychological trap. 

Playing at an online casino requires a lot of concentration.  When I play, I use my own game strategies.  Following my own tactics and strategy in gambling improves my chances of winning. 

I cannot deviate from my plan due to the presence of an additional reward.  This can lead to negative consequences. 

I am happy when I get rakeback.  It's always nice to get extra rewards.  This is great luck! 

However, my game does not depend on the absence or presence of rakeback.
