Have you read the threads on other websites regarding Absolutes change in Bonus structure? I guess it has become nearly impossible for $25NL players to clear any decent bonus.

I'm playing well at the moment and cannot believe how often I preserve my stack despite turning the nuts but getting rivered constantly lately (now I understand why some people with tin hats call it "Riverstars"). So since starting I'm up more than 300bb running at approx 8.5BB/100 playing $10NL 6-max on Stars. Hopefully I can clear the $50 bonus over the weekend and then start to clear the Empire sign-up bonus playing $25NL.
