Paying a lot more rake at small stakes, so I'd say bonus whoring is even more important.
But they do take forever!
Make sure you do the ones that release incrementally, so if you run out of time you still get your share.

nope, it's worthwhile. Just choose the right bonuses = do your research first. Bonuswhores etc.
Bonuses and loyalty points played a huge role in my first $1k, that, plus a LOT of hands

It's not as easy to whore as it used to be, that's for sure.
There are some fairly easy bonuses to clear on Prima if you're up for playing 50NL. Crazy used to have a $50 bonus for 250 raked hands. Golden Riveria was another one of similar layout.

Ohhhh, it used to be very good. Now it's barely worthwhile for a US player. From Dublin, though, you should still have a reasonable share of options.

Hey Goat,
Are you rebuilding your roll? Good luck. Good bonuses are hard to come by. Sometimes I hear of good bonuses i.e. Unibet and then I hear that they have cash-out problems and support doesn't reply. That leaves me wondering if its actually still worth it. I still believe that Ongame with their 8x bonuses are some the best around for Euro players.

Saw you on Everest Goat. Why don't you do some of the PSO and Savvy bonuses. Some are very clearable at 25nl... Just clear their requirements and don't focus on the bonus you get from the pokersite itself. Should get you up to 50 or even 100nl in a couple of weeks.

Yeah, it's Flups. You donated a stack to me at 50nl  . You know PSO and Savvy? Just sign up at sites through them (where you haven't signed up before) and convert their points to moneys. Some of their promo's take you 1 or 2 days at 25 or 50 nl and are worth up to $120 each.
Anyway, how was tonights session at 25nl going for you?
