I suppose I'll just buy myself something nice with the $500 I (hopefully) get at the end.

I dunno, check out all the $1 averages at nl25. A true struggle for the (35 cent) blinds. What a fucin bloodbath...

I was about a quarter of the way through the $500 bonus. I mostly play 10/20 6 max and decided to sit down for a few hands and see what the action was like even though the table averages were frighteningly low and .... it felt like I was playing the 25/50 at Absolute.

Not exactly the fish bowls I was used to. Although, I was actually able to pull of some pretty creative bluffs that would never have worked against the typical calling station, it's not what I would call an ideal game. Made a quick $400 bucks, considered that my bonus /images/graemlins/grin.gif, cashed out entirely to NETeller, and un-installed MultiPoker from my comp.

I think I'm gonna say [censored] it and quit after 4500/10000 hands.

i'm so glad i got addicted to Civ3 this week and laxed on my bonus clearing. 1800/10000 is an easy fold

The 1/2 tables were full of TAGs last night, had trouble finding anything with more than a $12 average (it was easier the night before to find $16-20 tables), and those dropped quickly. The OP was right, these bonuses just bedame very diffcult to clear.

I'm on 1/2 full tables right now and it's not even funny. I have 1500 hands left for the 300$ bonus. I guess I'll have to grind it out.

I had just started a 2000 hand bonus, got in a little over 100 hands. Waiting for better conditions, do have a couple weeks to get it in after all. May as well be patient, playing elswhere in the meantime. Worst case, I still get my unmentionable on the 100 hands.

These games have gotten really rally bad.
It would take 50k hands to clear the 500$ bonus. Not worth it

1-2 6 max will still do the job.

Play .5/1. 50% hands raked (about there anyway), and the play is really bad. Not as loose as 2 days ago (obviously) but very, very weak.

I played 800 hands of nl25 to test this tonight, 34% raked. I'm guesing weekday afternoon games will be around 0-5% raked.

ENJOY!

well, I gave up when the a-bomb hit. I figured out quite quickly what would be left...nothing. My cashout did hit neteller already. [sigh of relief]

I cleared the 2k one and was a 450 into the 4k. I decided to call it after playing about 30 hands or so. Very few raked hands. If I go back it will not be with my TAA strategy /images/graemlins/laugh.gif
