    Default Best Party Bonus?

    What's the best Party bonus for first signup?

    This $125 bonus is it worth it? It takes very long to play 500 raked hands unless I multitable, right?

    (sry accidently put this post under General)

    depends on the deposite. I used 25TILT or something like that because i only deposited $50. I bought into 4 .10/.25 tables with $5 and folded every hand no matter what enless it was AA or KK, which i pushed.

    after about 20 mins the 125 raked hands were finished, and i had $77 with the 25 and the 3 i had actually made only pushing AA KK folding everything else

    So you dont have to be involved in the hands? It counts everything even if you sit out or how does that work?

    no, u must be dealt into the hand, but do not have to see a flop.

    on .10/.25 full ring u see 10 hands for .35 x 12.5 (125 raked hands) = $4.37

    So, ur paying 4.37, to get $25.

    But, the way i played (Push all AA KK pre-flop, fold everything else) i came out of the tables up $3 after clearing. So i got $25 + $3 i made

    So no u cannot sit out, but ur money doesnt have to have gone into the pot

    ty Dan, now the next question should I play .10 or higher = faster?

    I signed up then started with .10 multitabling and it seems to take forever. Is that because fewer hands are raked?

    Yup the pot needs to get to be $1 before its raked.

    Ur on NL25?

    almost every hand is raked on those. U should be multi tabling tho. Tables only do like 50 or less hands an hour. so 4 is a good number.

    Should have told me u were depositing right then we could have done the referral to


    But yes, on .10/.25 95% of the hands should be raked.

    Are u on .5/.10? or a limit table maybe

    ty Dan, and next time I'm about to sign up at some place I'll post it here

    I'm 3-tabling the .25 for now as you suggest...guess it's a lot faster than .10 then
