Christmas came late at Sporting Odds casino this month - their monthly reload bonus slid in as my last casino of 2006 on 29th December and a very nice one it was too!

It’s a 2 stage bonus - you deposit £25, wager it once, then you log out and back in and there’s a £25 bonus waiting for you. In theory. In fact, I had to contact customer services and wait several hours for it to appear (don’t continue playing until it’s in). Once it was I had an up and down sort of game on Blackjack (playing multihand between £2 and £5 per hand) - finishing slightly up, then another £25 bonus popped in. Yup, if you wager £1000 then you get the second part, and once I’d finished the wagering requirement on that I had a very tidy bankroll to end the year on!
