this was offered to me by email, so i don't know if everyone is eligible.
i deposited and the bonus conditions include a whole list of ways to clear the bonus.
a couple of them were as follows:
the normal 10x raked hands, ie. 1000 raked hands for the max $100 bonus.
$2500 wagered on blackjack through partycasino.
if time is a factor, wouldn't the BJ route be the quickest way to clear this bonus? let's assume that i am 4-tabling $25NL.

did you read my post?
btw, i already read that post and searched the forums with no luck. this post is about the quickest way to clear the bonus, not whether i am eligible or not.
thanks for trying, though. i am editing the post topic now........

sorry, I didn't get that from the original title or the post itself. As forthe quickest, I'd go for the most. Playing $25nL will net you alot more than the $100 bonus. Playing BJ will cost yo about $5 on average, without going into possible variance situations. This is a rough estimate. But would you not rather play winning poker while clearing the bonus? 2500 hands at BJ is not my favorite way to spen an evening.

i suppose you are right, but i have time constraints. with those constraints, i will have to 12-table in order to make it work for me. i am pretty sure that is not going to net me a lot of extra cash unless i am stone mountain, georgia. then nobody give me any action.......or have i overestimated the competition?
i also emailed party and it can only be earned with one OR the other and not partially with each. just in case anyone was interested.

I cleared it playing BJ in just over an hour and won $50 playing for a $150 profit.
I 6 table 100NL usually and I wouldn't clear the bonus that fast.

It took me about 1600 hands of NL 25 FR (about 3.5 hours nine tabling). The games were pretty tight and full of people obviously camping to clear the bonus. Still a few fish here and there though.
I lost a stack KK vs AA and another one with top set AA losing to turned quad 5s, but I stole a few blinds and stacked a couple of fish to end $30 ahead, plus the $100 bonus.

i should have listened to trainer. i decided to go the blackjack route and use a max. of $100 to complete the bonus......similar to whoring any other casino. busted after completing only $1310 of the $2500 WR. was using $2 straight betting. now i guess i will just try to work the bonus off with poker if i have the time just so i can break even. needless to say i am not happy.

did you bet $5 each time? you seem to have done it quite fast. glad to hear you won, however. i never saw a dealer complete so many 21s with 5 cards in my life. i know, i know......variance. i have to remind myself of the time i was playing in tunica, MS and the dealer got 7 blackjacks in a row. i went to my room and cried myself to sleep.

I think I was betting $4 at a time maybe even moved up to $6.
