Yes, but how does it clear?
Its not how much they give you, but how easy it is to get.

To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

demi at 3/6 limit it disappears rapidly.
At 100 nl too.
I assume thise are the sorts of levels you play.
Even 2/4 limit it clears goot two tabling 6max. The more the quicker. It isnt too bad in that sense

For real money side games: Every player who has been dealt cards earns 0.07 CheckPoints per $0.10 in rake ( for example: if the rake is $0.10 - $0.19 player earns 0.07CPs, if the rake is $2.90 - $2.99 player earns 2.03CPs )
|
At this rate it would be about 1 point per hands at 3/6... and much less than that as you move down in stakes.

So at 3/6 it is about a 20x bonus. There are much better out there.

This bonus is much better, despite the fact that it is 20% instead of 200%.
I am just not willing to play through 20K hands given the time I have.
It wouldn't be bad for higher volume players who have already exhausted the multitude of much better bonuses though.

Hey Miffed, I just saw this the other day and was going to ask you if you were going to do it. I was planning on doing it, but now that it's 200 checkpoints for every $10 I don't think it's really worth it. At 90 checkpionts per $10 it clears fairly quickly for me, but I think 200 is just too much. Good luck with it if you do decide to go through with it.
PS: How far along are you in the initial deposit bonus ($600)? I cleared about $170 so far.

ive cleared 300 of the initial but cant take the reload as my bad downswing has left me having to rethink for a bit. Once i crack the swing ill be back at 50nl 100nl and 3/6 limit but until then i darent/dont want to play the games im rolled for because im just getting battered. Im also going back to 10nl and 25nl to check through 10k hands and make sure i have no major leaks ive been missing. Limit was the key for me, i could 3/4 table 3/6 and pwn the bonus
