I haven't deposited on either yet and am thinking of doing the %50 to $100 on Empire. On both of these sites, a "raked hand" invloves you only getting dealt cards, you don't have to post a blind or contribute to the pot correct? If so, then it shouldn't take long to clear this bonus I think, 10X bonus, so 1000 raked hands?

Not every hand is raked. Only hands where a certain amount of money gets put into the pot.
Someone may correct me on this, but four tabling you get about 120-150 (maybe more, maybe less, someone help me out here) raked hands per hour. So you're still looking at a decent amount of time spent in front of the computer.

That definitely seems low.
I only ever double table and I can usually get about 500 hands in about 4-6 hours.

On the last Bonus on PP, I had a rate of 140-150 raked hands per hour with 4 tabling. On PP, a raked hand need to have a 5$pot.
On PP, you don't need to bet in the pot, just have to be dealt your hand.
On PP, you need 7x hands the bonus, so for a 200$ bonus, I had to play 1400 raked hands, took me around 9 ours.
I don't now exactly if the raked hands work idem with Empirepoker, but with 10x the bonus, it's getting a bit harder to whore.
With PP, theorically, you can fold all your 1400 rakeds hands, and it will cost you only the blinds, so about 130$. Still have 70$ left without any risk !!!

Is there anyway to tell how many raked hands you have? Do they keep track in the interface anywhere?
