Sun Palace Casino Review

The Sun Palace Casino is a highly respected online casino running on Real Time Gaming software.  They offer an impressive 125% bonus up to $125 and an extra 25% bonus for deposits between $101 and $100,000.  Making $25,100 the maximum possible bonus at the Sun Palace online casino.  Anybody can play including Americans and players with Mac computers.  You can choose to test the casino games in the free mode or you can make a deposit using a credit card, eWallet Express, NETeller, Money Bookers, a money order, Pre-paid reloadable cards and Gold Pay.  If you choose to make a deposit you will be able to wager between $0.01 - $100 at the sixty-nine slots, $0.03 - $500 at the eighteen video poker games and $1 - $250 at most of the table games.  Overall, the Sun Palace online casino is good for high rollers as well as players on a modest budget.

Welcome Bonus
Your match bonus will be added to your bonus account after your initial deposit.  You will be able to earn a 125% match on your first $100 and 25% on any amount over $100.  To earn this bonus you will need to wager forty times the deposit plus the bonus.  This works out to a 72 times the bonus amount for deposits of $125 or less.  Deposits over $125 will slowly require you to play more for each dollar earned in bonus funds.  This is because the wagering requirements are 40 x (bonus + deposit) and after $125 the more you deposit the less the ratio will be between your bonus and the deposit amount.

Example 1: 40 x ($125 bonus + $100 deposit) = $9000 divide that by the $125 bonus and you will get a 72 x bonus playing requirement.

Example 2:> 40 x ($350 bonus + $1000 deposit) = $54000 divide that by the $350 bonus and you will get a 154.29 x bonus playing requirement.

    Your play at certain casino games will be discounted or won't count towards your wagering requirements.  Wagers on Blackjack and at the video poker machines will require you to wager 100 times your bonus plus your deposit or 2.5 times the normal amount.  Wagers on Craps, Caribbean Holdem, Baccarat, Roulette, Tri-Card Poker, Pontoon, Vegas 3 Card Rummy and Sicbo will not count towards your playing requirements.
    Deposits made by NETeller, eWallet Express and Instadebit will reward you with an extra 15% match bonus up to $500.  Note: The Sun Palace online casino default bonus is a match bonus (you must earn the bonus before it will be credited to you), but if you want the bonus to be credited to your account before reaching your playing requirements you may ask support via live chat to have the bonus added to your playing account immediately.  The wagering requirements are the same, but you will be restricted from playing casino games that would otherwise be discounted or wouldn't count towards your playing requirements.  This includes popular games such as video poker and blackjack.  This would only be a good idea if you are planning of only playing the slot machines.

How the welcome bonus works for different games
Slots: $100 deposit = 40 x ($125 bonus + $100 deposit) = $9000 Play Through x (96.5%) = $8685 + $125 bonus = $8810/$9000 = 97.9% pay out with bonus

Video Poker: $100 deposit = 100 x ($125 B + $100 D) = $22,500 Play Through x (97.8%) = $22,005 + $125 bonus = $22,130/$22,500 = 98.4% pay out with bonus

Sun Palace Casino Games

There are some fun and exciting games to play here including 74 slots, 18 video poker machines and 17 table games.  The play at most of the casino games will count towards your wagering requirements.  Some of the more popular casino games that don't are Craps, Baccarat, Roulette and Sicbo.  When taking the welcome bonus into account, most casino games here will have approximately the same pay out percentage plus or minus 1%.

Slots
There are some really fun slot machines here including ten three reel slots, fifty-two with five reels and twelve progressive slot machines.  You can play the slots between $0.01 and $100 a spin.  Some of the slot machines here include the Mid Life Crisis slots, Aztec's Millions, Shopping Spree slots, Bank on it and the Bonkers slots.  The combined average pay out is approximately 96.5% and can be increased to 97.9% when working off your welcome bonus.  This will work out to a 2.1% house edge or in other words, you can expect to lose 2.1 cents for every $1 that you wager in the long run.  An average wager of $47.62 should result in a loss of $1 per spin.

Video Poker
You have the option of playing 18 different video poker games here including Jacks or Better, Aces and Faces, Joker Poker, Bonus Poker and many more.  The average pay out ratio is 97.8% which works out to a 2.2% house edge.  Playing while working off a bonus will decrease the house edge to 98.4%.  So you can expect to lose on average 1.6 cents for every dollar that you wager at the video poker machines.  Placing a $500 wager on the 100 hand machines at $5 per hand will result in an average loss of $0.08 per hand played.  The minimum allowable wager is $0.03 at the three-handed games and the maximum wager is $500 at the 100-hand video poker game.  You can play at single hand, 3, 10, 52 or 100 hands at the same time.

Table Games
There are 17 different table games at the Sun Palace online casino including favourites such as blackjack, Craps, Roulette and Caribbean Stud.  There are also some newer and exciting games such as Caribbean Holdem, Vegas Three Card Rummy and the Perfect Pairs.  The minimum wager for most table games are $1 and the maximum wager is $250.  Some exceptions include Craps with a max wager of $100, and Pai Gow Poker and Let them Ride which have $5 minimum wagers.  The pay out percentages vary depending on which table game you are playing and the wagering requirements for your bonus also varies on the type of game you are playing.
