I got this message, does this mean I get 24 hours to clear it??? I am pretty sure the message is messed up and probably is 7 days.

The way I read this, the bonus can be activated any time within the next 7 days but no matter when you deposit, you still have to have played 10x raked hands by 23.59 on 20th April.

I'm tapping it... I got 15% up to $100.
Do they actually run different bonuses from person to person?
|
|
So you click their picture and then you get their money?

Got an email for a 30% reload bonus up to $100 and then logged in and they gave me $30 extra no deposit needed. I made a deposit of $500 and wasnt credited with the 30% bonus, emailed them and they said it was meant for play money players with a first real money deposit and that it was sent to my play money account or something. Didnt really make much sesnse, but anyways, I sent them the email and how it didnt say that at all, so they thengave me the $100 bonus with only 500 raked hands needed to clear, haha Ill take that any day.

Having the same problem at the moment, can't get on either. Only got 15% up to $75 but it's better than nothing I guess.
This is my first post on this great site, been lurking for a while. There is a whole lot of knowledge on here, my productivity at work has nosedived since discovering FTR!

I got the 15% up to $75 (seems like thats all I ever get). But it says I have till April 20th to deposit, then 7 days from the time it is awarded to play 10x raked hands.
To me that sounds more like 7 days to finish after making the deposit.

Um why in the world would u close ur account. The only reason i can think of is rakeback in which u just reopen it and get the intial and this reload both.

I'm a bit new (read: very new) to the Poker world. Just about a month in. My question regarding the bonus is thus:
My bank roll is $100 playing $5nl, underrolled but there are no cheaper stakes. If I deposit the $500, can I just play my required hands, hit the $75 bonus, then pull out my inital 500 without drawbacks? Is this frowned upon?

I do that all the time at Party. I deposite my $500 then clear the bonus and then withdraw everything, and wait for the next bonus go around. Hasnt hurt me yet. You do have to wait 14-15 days from withdrawal before you can deposit for another bonus, but thats never been a problem. Ive never lost out on a bonus because of the wait period.

What would a good estimate be for the amount of time needed to play in order to hit 750 raked hands (VP$IP about 20%, W%SF about 26%)? I usually play a couple hours a night after work. Could I even hit the bonus if I went for the max?

Do you multi table? If so it shouldnt be too hard. I think when I did the last Empire bonus for $200, I four tabled 25NL and it took me right at 12 hours to complete 1400 raked hands. So just say 100 rh's an hour 4 tabling 25NL should take around 7 hours, maybe less at Party. Empire was a little rockish.
Someone correct me if Im wrong though, thats just how long it took me and I did Empire in a day and a half because I'm home most of the day.

I 3 table $5NL. Some overlap on a 17" screen so no way I could do more. I probably shouldn't even be doing 3 with as new to the game as I am.

Empire and Party share tables again.

They didnt on the last bonus I did at Empire though. They started sharing again right after that bonus. So I would think the Party bonus would go a little faster.

That actually might be harder than it seems, he said he plays at the $5NL tables. At $25NL a good majority of the hands are raked, but I believe the pot needs to reach $1 at party and skins to be considered rake. Since that is 20x BB, that might be a lot slower at $5NL. But if you're gonna deposit $500 for the max bonus, I'd play $25NL with that (given you're comfortable at those limits of course)

For 10-handed ring games it's a $2.00 pot. The rake has to come up to $0.01 per person, or $0.10, for you to have credit for a raked hand.
