IMO, the least risky bonus site is Pacific. Up to $200, your deposit gets back 50% ($100). You can remove your deposit after playing one hand and just play with their money.

If you get referred to Pacific, you can get an additional bonus. Before the 24th they are offering $50 bonus if you are referred.

Bonuses take a while to clear there, and cash outs take a long time, but there is no risk earning your bonus.

Just so I am clear, I deposit $200, play one hand and I have $100 of bonus money. How does it clear?

Pacific counts your wagers made. The "first deposit bonus" is 20x the bonus, so $2000 in wagers. SNG's count toward the wagers. The referal bonus clears more slowly -- 40x bonus.

Also, it looks to me like their bonus clears incrementally, or better yet, they just aren't tracking the bonuses well. I've removed $150 out of $325 in bonuses, even though I've only "cleared" $45. It's all good to me.
