Just found out about Interpoker on BW then checked Caribbean Sun and same thing. They've gone down to 5x the bonus amount but the rake needs to be at least $1 so the pot must be at least $20. Checked the other CRL sites and no change so far, but they don't require raked hands. Poker Plex and Littlewoods are still delt hands at 1/2L or .5-1NL. William Hill, UKBetting, and Totalbet are still 5hr at 1/2NL or.5-1NL.

This is great for people playing 3-6 up.

Is there ever a $20 pot in their rock hard 1/2 game?

Once in a while it gets up to $40 or so...but to clear 450 hands would be hard at that limit. Mt crypto counter says that I'm at 718 raked at $1 out of 9 thousand hands.

There is an easier way. Clear the bonus at InterCasino. here is July's results...took 50 minutes to clear:

I wish I ran that good. Busted out in June. Going to try again later this week. Hopefully I can at least clear the bonus this time.

Well those two sites are off my monthly list then!

Just ran cryptocounter on my June stats - I played 1527 hands of $100NL there clearing the hourly bonuses, which would have given me 273 raked hands!

Even the fish like to earn their monthly bonus. Maybe some of them will move up to 2/4 when they realize that is the lowest limit to clear the bonus in a reasonable time. The conditions could improve especially with the bonus whores deciding to pass on these sites now.

The casino WR is 25x the bonus.

$90 x 25 = $2250

WR stands for wagering requirement, and yes, that means you have to wager $2250 to clear the $90 bonus.

You might be right about that. After all, before the bonus whoring community hit the Cryptologic sites in force, the games were much more loose.

On a more negative note. It seems like the golden age of poker bonus whoring is drawing to a close.

The PLO games on Interpoker is the absolute loosest frenzy I've ever seen. Guess I'll be shipping a good amount of my roll over there to clear the $90, shouldn't take too long.
