View Full Version : About Clearing Those Crypto Bonuses

I Have a few questions about clearing those bonuses. It seems the most risk free way to clear the bonus is through 1/2 Limit Hold'em or .50/1NL (nocap buyin it seems)

If I have a limited bankroll of $100. Is it worth the risk to try and clear the bonuses? Should I come back later with a sizable Bankroll?
Do I have to keep an amount of money in Peach Casino for the 2nd month deposit to work or should I just withdraw everything now?
How long usually does it take the pin to come in the mail?

Thanks in advance for your help!

If you can play break even poker - go for it

I play in five different crypto sites with a $100 working balance in each of them. ie I withdraw each month after I get the bonus and leave $100 in the a/c for the next month.

I usually play 3/4 tables of 1/2 and have not had to redeposit money in over 10 months. Sure there is a good chance I will run out of money on one of the sites, (hasn't happened yet) but I am willing to deposit more $$$ to get the bonuses. simply playing there for me is + ev.

with only $100 it might be worth the risk, especially if you are willing to add more later. Other wise try party or some other room with smaller limits.

As for the pin, mine took less than 2 weeks to get to Aus and once when I didn't get one I emailed support and they sent me a new one. that was a while ago and some people have been complaining lately about slow pins. so check with someone who has got their pin recently.

hope this helps

Try intercasino first, best deal $90 for 450 hands, then you will have plenty of $$$ for other crypto skins

One thing to look for is that the preflop numbers are off by about 5-7%.

The tables have been real tight if you are playing when it's 4:00AM Europe time. The last week I have seen nothing but 35% games and tighter.

I'll get into a 42% flop game and after 20 hands it's actually 35% flop and falling. It's not the same as it use to be . . .at least end month.

Thank you very much for the information. I'll deposit $100 into intercasino first and see how I do.

Like all the smaller sites you got to play at the right time of day. Afternoon/evening eurotime is good for the £ tables, and afternoon/evening us time is decent on the $ tables.

My PIN arrived (to U.S.) in about 10 days. I agree with Dink - start at Interpoker, but I also like Poker Plex's bonus ($50 - 300 hands played, do not have to be raked to count).

The 1/2 limit games are rarely too difficult. I also like the .50/1 NL games, which range from very juicy to very tight. There is probably a pattern to what time of day the NL games are juicier, but I haven't figured it out yet.

So sounds like you can have accounts at multiple skins without a registry hack?

Is everyone using same email and Neteller account?

Yes and yes. The crypto sites don´t care.

if you're worried about busting out, do NOT do interpoker first.

at interpoker you have to last 450 raked.

caribbean sun gives you $40 for 250 hands (not raked).
poker plex gives you $50 for 300 hands (not raked).

the others give you £5 per hour. if you want to avoid going broke, these are by far the best bonuses.

interpoker has the highest risk of all the cryptos, so do it last if you're worried about going broke.

Thanks.

One more question. All these bonus are given long as you playing the number of hands required without depositing every month, correct?

All of them except the interpoker one (which I am sure has already been stated in the forum)

I didnt believe that caribbean and pokerplex do not require a rake to count the hands toward the bonus. I checked and caribbean definitely says raked hands but pokerplex doesn't specify so I guess I will have to count next month to verify. Thanks for the info if correct.

Poker Plex doesn't require hands to be raked. I already checked. Atleast during October they all required exactly what they said they did.

Oh, the ones that pay by the hour pay by 'table hour'. So if you play two tables on William Hill you get paid £10 for 2.5 hours.

Pokerplex counts hands played and does not require that they be raked.
