Higher the Welcome Bonus - Higher the Risk

[Shirley]

Hello,

 

I am still a newbie to online casinos.

Nice to meet you all!

 

I’ve heard from other casino players that most big Welcome Bonuses aren't worthwhile because they come with higher risks. To see if this is true, I check out some of online casinos and found that usually the more money available in a Welcome Bonus, the higher the wagering requirements are.

 

Some casinos that have small $100 Welcome Bonuses only ask players to wager their deposit and bonus around 10 to 20 times, but the more the bonus the higher the stakes; sometimes as high as 45 times wagering requirements. Even for larger bonuses that have reasonable wagering requirements, there is a greater risk involved because players are asked to put more of their own money on the line before they are eligible for their bonus.

 

The risk is definitely greater with bigger Welcome Bonuses, but I'm wondering if you’re likely to spend more than you would normally when placing bets because you want to get your bonus? Or do you only work towards the bonuses that you can earn sticking to your normal gambling habits?

What average of welcome bonus I should look for?
