Hi all
I want to bonus chase but i only want to play tournament poker for now. I have found a good first time deposit at Ladbrokes whereby if I "wager" my deposit within 14 days I will get 25% back..
i.e Deposit $100
Play 10 x $10 sngs
Receive $25 bonus
Does anyone know of any other sites that do this type of bonus whereby "raked hands" arent necessary but "wagered amounts" are? I only play micro real money tables so I find these other bonuses difficult to burn off at the ring games. Much prefer sng play as its more enjoyable and more profitable (for me anyway!)
Thanks in Advance

Pacific Poker runs a Wagering Requirement.

I was going to mention this, but its a 20x WR. I don't know if it's exactly worth it. But there is very few bonuses out there that count tourney buyins, so I guess it is what it is.

Is the "immidiate bonus credit" still valid? Also, is there a time limit to clear the bonus? I couldn't find any info on this on Pacific's site.
Edit:
Also, I would like to know if there is a "immidiate bonus credit"-possibility on ladbrokes? Would be nice to have a chance at earning some bonus without risk, allthough it does sound too good to be true.

Yes, Pacific's bonus is a playable bonus, and it drags on-and-on. There may be a time limit listed somewhere, but you can get through this bonus easy.
I don't know about Ladbrokes in particular, but I will say most poker bonuses are not playable bonuses, but are awarded at the end of the requirements. And the exceptions are mostly the poker rooms offering a small freebee playable bonus up front, like Party's $25 offer, or Royal Vegas' offer -- my two-cents here is that the small freebees usually lay waste to a better bonus and usually should be avoided.

Someone may want to check BOSPoker -- looks like they have a WR, rather than a RH requirement. Maybe good for Tourny/SNG players? I wouldn't just jump in here, though. Get details from CS.
