Hi all,
Wondering if I should try to get the bonus at Pokerstars playing $10NL tables? Would it take long to clear?
Thx,

First Frequent Player Point (FPP) is awarded for playing a hand in which the rake reaches:
* $0.40 for fixed limit poker games with stakes $1/$2 and lower
* $0.40 for NL/PL poker games with blinds $1/$2 and lower
* $1.00 for all other games
Second FPP is awarded for playing a hand in which the rake reaches:
* $2.00 for all 6-max tables (this doesn't apply for games being played 6- handed at 10/9/8 player tables - just 6-max tables)
* $3.00 for all other tables
Third FPP is awarded for playing a hand in which the rake reaches $5.00.
So , assuming that 5cents is taken for every $1 in the pot, the pot would have to be $8 to rake $0.40. So it's possible to clear, but may take a while

I wouldn't bother on 10NL

Of course I have bad days...
Sometimes I'll go a whole day without quads.

I'll rephrase my question... I got 200$ BR on my neteller account, only got a PartyPoker account. What bonus is easy to clear for me with that bankroll and playing comfortably on PP's $10NL tables. 
Or is it still too early for some bonuswhoring?

Prima, Riverbelle. If you have enough hands played. Its about 3500 hands for $20 up to $300 in 30 days. I got thru $120 and played enough to win the rookie deal. Another $250. played 20000 hands in the month though. but yes it's to early to whore. But there is a bonus or two that are worth getting while grinding. Just make grinding your first action.

Great! Going to check out Riverbelle this weekend then. If I need to grind, better grind to a bonus anyway. 
Still some questions: Riverbelle is part of the Prima network. If I go play at another site that is part of the Prima network, is it still possible to clear bonus at the other sites? If you play at Riverbelle, are the player pools from the other Prima sites 'connected'?
Thx!

99% of the Prima sites require you to play at 50NL as a minimum.
Yes you can whore most of them. Some are part of the same group (like Aztek and PokerRewards) and you can only whore one site per group.

From an email of mine
Quote:
Kindly be advised that each hand that is played on our normal ring tables will be considered towards the bonus (15 x $20 bonus increments) even if the hand is not raked or no pot has been accumulated, however please bear in mind that each betting level you play on you will receive a specific point for playing on that level.
Below are the bet limits and the points you earn at each bet limit for Fixed, No Limit and Pot Limit tables:
$0.05 /$0.10 to $0.25 /$0.50 - 0.1 points
$0.50 /$1.00 to $2.00 /$4.00 - 0.5 points
$2.50 /$5.00 to $4.00 /$8.00 - 1 point
$5.00 /$10.00 to $200.00 /$400.00 - 2 points
clearing at a rate of $20 for 350 points and the points are based on hands dealt not raked.
Please note that tournament tables are not included in this promotion.

prima is a stand alone so it'll let you clear others later.

Yep. Max. 30 days. I got $120. and that's 4 x 6 max tables and the once in a while added FR table for 5. Not easy but a clearable bonus at $10NL, they are few and far between.

I'd recommend Tilt for the best value for $200.
you should be able to clear it in a month 4 tabling on 25NL. Break it down from there for other limits/# of tables. Best part is that it's accrued from all table action, not just player contributed-Find juice tables and park it for a while. It's automatic.
The following month if no bonuses are pending they may offer a 50% reload.
Traffic seems to have increased post-port-act to the point where they may not offer such attractive bonuses every month, but keep an eye out on the 13-16th of each month.
