Absolute Poker.com - Sign-Up Guidelines
I signed up for
on August 30, 2004 to take advantage of the 35% bonus
which is more than what I got at PartyPoker. Since then, Absolute has
actually increased their bonus percentage.
But I signed up with $300 and received a nice, fat $105 bonus.
I didn't have to enter any codes or anything to get the bonus.
Now, Absolute Poker is offering a 100% initial deposit bonus for up to
$100, or an even bigger bonus if depositing with Neteller. Click
on the
link to learn more about the bonus options.
As I played it became evident that the bonus was released in $10 increments.
Basically every qualifying raked hand earns you 1 point and every 100 points earns you $10
of the bonus released into your account. Since I was playing the 10 cent/25 cent no limit
tables it meant that every hand played was worth a point because a qualifying raked
hand is counted as one with at least 25 cents.
Here is what they say about the bonus structure:
The Bonus Amount will automatically be added to your Pending Bonus account
where it will be held and automatically released to your cash account based on the following easy requirements;
for each raked hand (minimum rake of $0.25) you play you will receive 1 point, and you will receive 1 point
for each $1 of tournament buy-in fee. At 100 points $10 will be transferred from your Pending Bonus account
to your cash account.
Money in your pending account will expire 60 days from the time it was awarded unless
it has been transferred to your real money account by meeting the hands played requirements.
You can view your point total and bonus amounts at the Cashier.
You will continue to earn points until you have received 100% of your bonus money.
This offer is only valid for new users who have not previously made a deposit.
You are only allowed one active real money account.
If more than one real money account is detected you risk both player accounts being blacklisted
from ever playing at Absolute Poker again.
Please note, you will only earn points for hands that are raked, that collect a minimum of $0.25 cents. Tournament players will earn 1 point for every dollar paid in tournament buy-in fees. For example, in a $50 + $5 fee tournament, a player will be awarded 5 points. For 1-on-1 tournaments with less than a $1 fee, players will still get 1 point. These tournament points will be applicable for all pending bonuses.
*Points for tourney buy-in fees will be credited when tournament starts, not upon registration.
