    Default Bonus Whoring

    Took up my first +20% up to $100 Bonus on Party yesterday.

    Terms are 1000 raked hands in 7 days to release it. So how many hands dealt (PT stats wise) would I be looking at in order to clear the bonus? I'm at about 23% VPIP, and 3/4 table 500 hands in 3 hours. So for every 1000 hands dealt, means I'd probably play a raked hand for every (roughly) 1 out of 4?

    So assuming 250 raked hands per 1000, means I'd need to play4000 hands to clear the bonus in a week?

    This sound right? How long (in terms of hours, assuming 3/4 tabling) does it take you to clear 1000 raked hands?

    Nah. You get raked hands even if you fold preflop. As long as you're dealt cards and the hand gets raked, it'll count for you.

    Look to play about 1500 hands per 1000 raked. Thats a pretty good estimate.

    Ahh, I thought I had to be IN the hand when a rake was generated. Good to know that pre-flop folds count. Wahoo.

    And once I've cleared my bonus, there's no fine print that says I can't withdraw my original deposit and just leave the bonus in my account?
