first-up, good news on the avatar!

isn't the UB bonus quite hard to clear at low limits? Couldn't this take a while? If your deal is better than below then I'll be asking you for the details in a few weeks

Must earn 10 Ultimate Points for each $1 in bonus money


Ultimate Points are earned when contributing to the pot when the rake reaches certain levels:
Ultimate Points Awarded:

Rake UltimatePoints
$0.50-$3.00 0.50
$0.25-$0.45 0.25
$0.05-$0.20 0.10
some back of the envelope calculations. I'll round all the estimates up and compensate by ignoring pots raked above $0.20

Fullring $10NL, VPIP 25 (some of this is from the blinds), and two blinds per orbit contributing to pot = contributing about 4/10 hands. Say 3/4 hands the pot reaches $1 and is raked (very high estimate! but I know your pre-flop raises are always called), so you're contributing to raked hands 3/10 hands dealt.
so 333 hands dealt = 10 points = $1 cleared in rake.
so to clear $300 you need to play 300x333 hands = 100k hands...
