Web casino offer some cool free-play sessions which are awesome for getting going with games like online blackjack risk-free. Here's a simple strategy for banking the bonus cash and trying to make it pay at the blackjack table if you're a novice or casual gamer……

Hit the tables
Once the bonus cash is in the bank, you'll often be faced with an against the clock bonus session; locate a classic jacks or better video poker machine and get ready to game.

Stake level
Play the jacks or better video poker game with level stakes – because the cash is risk-free, use a relatively 'high risk' betting approach. For example, under normal circumstances you may risk 0.5% of your bankroll per credit. However, because it's the casino's cash – use something higher such as 3-5%.

Bonus strategy
The option is there to play with pure luck and instinct and try and get some nice hands of 21 or below – but you can use some very simple strategic rules to game quickly and potentially get significantly better results against the house. Try applying the following 4 blackjack rules during the bonus session:

Hit:until your hand is 17+ or soft 18, and the dealer holds 7 or less on their up-card
Hit: if the casino's up-card is 6<, hit until your have 12 or higher
Double Down: on a 10 or 11 versus dealer 9< Split: aces and 8's

With some typical luck – this approach to the blackjack bonus session can deliver some nice real bonus winnings.

Post-bonus
After banking the bonus winnings, you'll usually need to make a deposit and then play the bonus winnings through a pre-defined 'play through level' (for example, 200% of your winnings, so 100.00 would need wagering twice through). Be aware that blackjack (because it's a skill game) often has a 50% play through value per wager. Consider using a reduced relative bet risk than you use during the bonus session.
