Good bonus for low limit players
This hasn't been brought up on this forum but is talked about a fair bit at "4" and Bonuswhores is Betfred poker. It is an iPoker skin with a bonus much, much better than most of the skins. It is a 100% match bonus up to 250$, with a 10X raked playthrough requirements, basically the same as a party 10X reload with no minimum amount of rake needed (min limits are 0.5/1 and NL/PL50) so it is pretty easy. There is also no expiry date.
It is really one of the best bonuses out there for micro limit players, and the games are fairly soft in my experience aswell. I am a big fan of the games at iPoker, they are apparently are slightly better during euro times but they are good for me during the west coast evenings as is.
The deal can get slightly better with a *cough* <shameless spam> a referal from your friendly neighbourhood phytopath, just PM me your email address </shameless spam>.
I am sure that several of this forums "superwhores" have already done this, but I am about 1/2 way done and am really loving the action.

Does the bonus get payed out in intervals, or one lump sum at the end?

Any idea how often the .5/1 limit tables are raked? I'm playing on Prima now and depending on the table it seems only 1/3 or so of the pots get large enough to be raked (good if you're winning those small pots, bad if you're bonus whoring).

I don't have an exact number that get raked but I assume it is alot like Party and stars, probably about 50% of the pots get raked at .5/1.

Im on a Prima site right now, they count any hand that your dealt in that rakes over 25 cents. At .5/1 it usally ends up being about every third hand on avg, since the pot has to get up to about 5 bucks to count.

Isn't that pretty much exactly what I said?

Betfred Poker Home>>Poker Info>>Rake
For the purposes of promotions whereby participation in a specific number of raked hands is required, raked hands will only count when playing in games for stakes of at least $0.50/$1 for fixed limits, or at blinds of at least $0.25/$0.50 for pot limit / no limit.
Pot limit and No limit Number of players Rake per Pot Max Rake
2-3 $0.05 for each $1 in the Pot $1.00
4-5 $0.05 for each $1 in the Pot $2.00
6-10 $0.05 for each $1 in the Pot $3.00
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So Basically on this site they will count any hand that gets raked over 5 cents??? at least thats what its implying... so it seems to be way easier then at Prima.
