190 dollars, a baseball hat, and Super System II for 1250 hands

This sounds too good to be true, so...
1) how rockish are the games
2) what limit (6 max) do I need to play to get routinely raked pots of 1 dollar
3) is it a hassle to cash out??
4) Is the 190 dollars a monthly thing??

Thanks in advance, I look forward to living here for 1250 hands each month... Im excited

I was writing a review of the site for another site, checked it out for the first time, the games are very soft (I tripled my buy-in, not counting the bonus) and I cleared the bonus in a few days. There are definitely better sites - but a lot that are far worse. I cashed out two days ago ... and have yet to receive a penny OR the goodies. However, I called them last night and they are very easy to reach and they told me my monies should be processed sometime today.

One thing that is weird, though, is after you sign up, they will mail you this code, and you need that code in order to cash out - so make sure you provide your real mailing address, as they do NOT email it to you.

where did you get the $190 and the 1250 hands?

I got an email that says i need to play 1869 hands to get it and doesnt say anything about $190.

bonuswhores.com ... and they prorate the hands needed to make you play more than the previous month, so if its a new account, its only 300/700 for hat and book, and BW deposit bonus of 90 and 100 clear at the same time for 1250 hands

I had absolutely no idea that people still aren't clearing their bonuses in the casino

i agree that clearing through the casino is the way to go, i just saw that message and wanted to make sure it wasnt available to me

I didnt know this was possible, I see that req's are 25x bonus wagered. What is the EV of this bonus, and do you get the extra 100 from BW through the casino as well?

About $86 with pontoon (not that I have to remind you that Pontoon's the only game you should be playing at Intercasino)

Ok now I am interested. How many players are on per night? I assume the BW.com offer is the best one to use?

Actually, you do. I clear it with BJ.

Pontoon has a lower house advantage than BJ. Variance is higher though.

I've just abandoned my attempt at the SS2 promo.

I just got the email (it was locked up in my ISP's spam control center). 700 raked hands for SS2 -- thought I'd give it a go. I've already cleared September's $90 bonus in the casino -- I've been doing that the last 3 months.

Started playing Millers Short-Stack System at $0.50/$1.00 NL 6-handed. Talk about slow! After about 150 hands, barely 50% were raked at all, which is the requirement for the SS2 promo. At this rate it would take 1400 dealt hands to get the 700 RH needed. SS2 is available on Amazon for $23.00. 700RH/$23 makes this a 30X bonus. With the raked-hand percentage of about 50% it's 60X dealt hands.

There are better uses of my time out there than this. What am I missing?

what do you think of this:
just got email that 400 raked hands this weekend=$30
then i just continue to 500 raked hands = $90
for total of 120 for 500 raked hands (must be $1)

thas seems better then clearing at casino
only problem is there arent a whole lot of 2/4 tables and almost none at 3/6

i usually play 4-5 tables at crytos but its hard to find them at higher levels to clear 1 rake.

anyone going this route or still going to casino?

Pontoon has higher EV. But BJ can be played faster -- at least I can play BJ a heck of a lot faster. And that leads to a higher hourly-rate playing BJ.

So I go with BJ.
