Back to Blackjack

live blackjack table said bonus funds allowed then blocked my bet after i sat down.

Saw a weird one today. I joined a live blackjack table because it said bonus funds were accepted, even in the in-game lobby. Figured it was a good way to clear a rollover. But the second I put chips down, the table just grayed out the option and popped a "bonus funds not allowed" message. Tried another seat, same thing. Checked the terms and nowhere does it list this table as restricted.

Honestly, this is the kind of thing that gets me heated. If the UI says you can use the funds, it should honor that - if not, that’s a straight-up bait and switch in my book. I know sometimes sites block bonuses at certain stake levels or when the table fills up with bonus hunters, but this wasn’t a high roller table or anything out of the ordinary.

Anyone else dealing with this lately, or is this just a glitch on my end? Interested in how you handle bonus clearances these days, especially on tables that "allow" it but end up screwing you.

Yeah, i’ve had that exact dumb desync on live before, where the lobby says yes and the table says no once your chips are moving. I clear bonus stuff on ugly sports betting spreads now, which annoys me because blackjack should be the cleaner play, but nope
