By altering your bet size you alter the variance. The money wasn't 'mine' so I was justified in taking a 1 in five chance of multplying the stake by four.If you hit (as I did) you simply bring down the variance (which is till quite high with typical stakes) by decreasing the bet size. Acutually I was pretty unlucky to lose $98 - I might have expected something like a $20 swing..
This technique is well known, if you look up how to play 'sticky' bonuses in bj you will see that its quite lucrative GIVEN the right T&C. Although some casinos have wised up - there are still a few around and if your prepared to endure the braindeath which is 2000 hands of bj - then its easy money..
