Anybody familiar with these, I have a couple quiestions.
These are the sites that you have to wait to get a pin in the mail right? Which of the crypto's do you not need a pin for?
Once you have your pin, are the sites relatively hassle free as far as cashouts go?
Can I download the software and set up accounts with multiple crypto skins using the same computer or am I going to have to find other computers like the party skins? Is there any type of regedit like there was for party at one point in time?
Am I going to run into other currencies and have to worry about an exchange rate to play on these, or can I deposit and play in USD?
Won't these bonuses take forever to clear at 1/2 LHE?
Thanks guys

Yes, I know a little bit.
Yes, PINs. I haven't come across any without them.
Yes, good cashout one you have PIN.
Yes, multiple installs, no conflicts.
If you are only playing poker, you are cool with USD. Dollars are the international poker currency.
After recent policy changes, the current wisdom is to NOT clear crypto bonuses. If you are at InterPoker, clear the same bonus using the casino, or play at 2/4 and up. I don't know about the other sites.

I'd rather clear the interpoker bonus playing poker and not in the casino. I did receive an e-mail stating they were modifying the requirements so playing 2/4 to clear it would no longer be a neccessity. They said they would keep me posted when the mods went into effect. I imagine a lot of people got the same message.
I can play 2/4, but am not totally comfortable depositing enough to play 2/4 on a first time deposit.
I was hoping to play a little lower stakes and get a feel for the software and get some experience with how their site works before depositing 4-5 hundred bucks.

[my two cents of encouragement] Clearing the InterBonus in the casino is a cakewalk -- having an extra casino window open while you play poker is sweet -- it doesn't beep at you or pop to the front. The expected value after the wagering is around $90. Or, just play the best game in the world, POKER. But, whatever you do, don't wait a month for free money. [/encouragement]
