I've decided that bonuses are good for building a bankroll. Think that Pacific is next on the list, 25% first deposit up to $100.
Anyone know how this clears? I think I have to wager (i.e. put dollars in the pot, not the rake contribution) 10x to clear it. Means putting $1000 in the middle.
Even at $5NL this shouldn't take too long 5-tabling (only 200 all-ins!). If I'm 20%VPIP, playing 70 hands/hr/table and putting in $0.40/VPIP hand this makes, um... 2500 hands VPIP = 12500 hands. 350/table/hour. So 12500/350 = 35hrs. Crap hourly rate, but I figure I can beat this limit at the same time and I've got three months to clear it, which makes 35hrs sound trivial.
Am I making sense here?

the soft games normally have some impact on this.
Also, do pacific do rakeback. I have vaguely seen it about but not from one of the big sites

erm yeah right...  when was the last time you played there? lol
Pacific don't offer rake back, doesnt look like they're going to but they got some pretty nice alternatives that make up for that.
1. 25% up to $100 on first deposit - You get the bonus instantly and need to wager it 20 times before you cash out - fair enough.
2. Referal bonus - you get $150 for inviting your friends. I think that gets broken up. You get so much first then you have to wager the bonus before you get the rest. Tourney buy-ins count towards wagering.
3. They got bonus points but only on cash games and they arent the best offer I ever seen, but its something.
4. Who needs bonuses when you got all the fish from their Casino site? How much free money do you need?
5. They started giving monthly loyalty bonuses to people who deposit and play a lot.
They are a bit behind in many respects but are slowly catching up. They also have some nifty features I havent seen on to many other sites.
You dont even have to spend any money there, they got enough freerolls to get you started. Once you get some of that $$$ in your bankroll you can go and play on whatever tables you want.
