Littlewoods Poker Bonus

[boose_bagina]

Anyone cleared this recently. Bonuswhores.com says the clearing rate is ~$9.72/hr for all full ring NL limits. However, on the Littlewoods website, the T&C's state that a raked hand (250 are needed for bonus) is one where $1 rake is taken from pot. I don't think a clearing rate of $9.72/hr is attainable under that condition, especially if you're just playing 0.5/1 NL.

My guess is that BW's hasn't updated that part of their site recently, or perhaps the Littlewoods site isn't following their own T&Cs. Any updates from anyone that has cleared that bonus this month would be great.

Thanks a bunch.

Cleared it this week. 250 hands played at 1/2 limit or .5/1 no limit and above. Maybe it will change in October.

thanks, that answered my question to a tee. I'm just curious about the one guy though that was counted as raked hands.

if it is dealt hands, anyone know how long it takes to show up in your account??? (i.e. your withdrawal limit is increased)

Can you get both the casino and poker room bonus? I received the casino bonus two weeks ago. I think I played over 400 hands of high enough limits today but did not get a bonus. Does it take a while to credit? Thank you for any helpful information.

Thank you,

You can get both bonuses and they both credit immediately. I'm not sure why your bonus would not have shown if you played enough hands at an acceptable limit. You might want to contact the on-line customer support.

Thank you for the information Acme. I contacted Littlewoods support and I guess the terms have already changed to one unit raked hands. Below is their response:

Dear Jim

Hello and thank you for contacting the Littlewoods Poker Support team.

Since September 1st we have changed the wager requirements for the
monthly poker bonus. In order to receive the monthly bonus you need to
complete 250 raked hands at a 1 unit ($/£) rake, the table limits are no
longer important.

Currently you have completed 100 raked hands.

Please note that beginning October 1, 2005, as a special feature for
our smaller limit players, for each hand you participate in which
generate at least 0.25 units ($/£/?), but less than 1.00 unit ($/£/?) of rake,
will count as 1/4 (or one quarter) of a raked hand toward clearing your
bonus.

We hope this attends to your enquiry. If we can be of any more
assistance please feel free to contact us anytime. We are open 24 hours per
day, 7 days a week (including holidays). You can contact one of our
