Sportingbet.Com do a $100 bonus for 500 Raked hands. You can play .10/.20 so only need to deposit 40 - $50 to be safe.

General strategy is to play EVERY HAND PREFLOP (Ok maybe fold 72o, but everything else... play it).

If you hit the flop well, then play and win the pot. If you miss fold.

Should take few hours to clear if you play 3 - 4 tables at once.

After that,
Casino.net have the same bonus(They take a while to cash out - Few days so don't do this if you need your bankroll fast/now).

Good luck.
You may PM me if you want to ask questions on this bonus as i have cleared both.

I think you may be insane. First, poker is not a sticky bonus. Second, play every hand preflop?!

He's wrong about the sticky, right about playing every hand though. It's contributed rake, and at 0.10-0.20, he should be fine playing every hand pf, as long as it's an unraised pot.

Well, I guess if your goal is to clear the bonus as fast as possible and it is contributed rake. This is certainly no way to increase your poker skill, though.

$30 deposit gets you a $50 sticky bonus.

It's a good beginner sticky since you are only risking $30

Read this thread Linky (http://www.bonusbug.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=clearing;action=display;num=1127744 604)

I found it did mine. Playing the .10/.20 5 max tables was a great chance to work on my short handed game at a very profitable price because of the bonus.

Playing hands I would normally never play made me think much more, and put more pressure on my post flop play.

Since the limits were low, and the majority of players still played pretty weak tight after the flop, it was a great training ground to make moves, and try things out, that I might never had tried.

I came away form the the 3 Boss media poker bonuses that I cleared playing 5 max .10/.20 a much better post flop player, and hence a much better poker player, because of me playing virtually every flop.

Bad habits, like any other, can be hard to break.

For an experienced player, this might be OK. For a beginner, it could be the first step to being a long-term losing player.

No idea what a sticky bonus is.

Anyhow the contributed rake bonuses = Play everyhand = Clears faster.

I dont think it will craft a beginner into a long term loser. he is here and has probably learnt preflop already, the only thing hes changing is limping every hand. Once he leaves he goes back to normal preflop standards.

if hes a moron and wants to play every hand then its not crafting him into a loser as he alreadys on the road to lose.

It helped my with poker skills, limping every hand put me into some interesting positions where i had to base all my play on reads. This made me focus more and watch players play without the help of PT/PA(which has made me become lazy).

$200 for few hours FUN POKER (playing every hand is fun) is great IMO.

I mean yeah, he could be a little kinder about it, but responding to a post with irrelevant information isn't good either. The OP asked for information about sticky bonuses, not about some random poker site. If I make a thread about a new Party bonus and you come in and reply about how you like to play blackjack at the Mirage, expect it to not be taken kindly.

I hate to continue with the off-topicness, but according to sportingbet.com's T&C, "Only hands played on $1 & $2 real money tables will count towards the number of hands played to claim the bonus."

I myself haven't done this bonus yet (I was about to), but I just came across this in the T&C. Anyone know if this is a new change, or what?

You can clear this bonus by playing the micro limits! It's
a good thing that you bother to read the T&C but in this
case the 1/2 only is wrong!
