Does anyone know of a site where you can clear bonus playing SnG's?

Doing a quick analysis of the expected hourly returns it looks like SnG's lose out because you can't clear bonus playing them. Here is my logic:

Assuming an ROI in SnG's of 70% (a mixture of 5+1 & 10+1) I'm making just under $8/hour (assuming an average of 45 minutes a game = 75 hours total time for 100 SnG's). Where as a good player can assume to make 1.5-2BB's per hour - at $1-$2 limit tables that's $4/hour. Where the big difference comes in is Deposit Bonuses!! You don't clear any deposit bonus playing SnG's!

So assuming you are good enough to make your 2BB's an hour clearing bonus at Absolute you should infact be making $9/hour, at party skins it's $14/hour.

I prefer to play SnG's but the value (maybe my logic is flawed) doesn't seam to be there without the ability to clear bonus???

Poker Stars and Pacific both have really slow bonus clearing, but SNG's are relatively productive in clearing them.
PokerStars clears on a point system, and the SNG's are fairly weighted compared to the rake.
Pacific clears based on totals wagered, and the non-rake entry fee of the SNG counts toward that total.
I'm a know-it-all.




No, really.
