PokerPlex switchover

Anyone know if pokerplex has switched their bonus policy yet?

Last month they claimed to move from 300 actual hands to
250 raked, but towards the end of last month they
hadn't switched it over yet.

There's a thread on bonuswhores right now discussing this. At the time I read it, it hadn't changed yet.

Still 300 dealt. Just got the bonus with 302 hands. Only 195 were raked.

Their site states 250 for December.

It also stated 250 RAKED for November, but they are still doing the 300 DEALT from the old system.

Just a thought here, do you think they might have "grandfathered" some of the folks who have been playing there awhile to still receive the old bonus, and the new conditions only apply to new customers?

I know there has been no mention of such an occurence anywhere on Plex's website, or any other place that I know of...

Kinda strange to see ppl still getting the bonus from the old system. Is there anyone who has had to play 250 raked hands to get this bonus yet?

FWIW

Last month, they awarded $50 for 300 hands AND $50 for 250 raked (using the $1 Rake = 1, <$1 = 1/4 system).

I can confirm that BOTH bonuses are still active! I just cleared them this afternoon.

Playing 2/4 (55%) and 1/2 (45%) Limit...
Hours played : 3
Profit from play: $170.75
300 Hand Bonus: $50
250 Raked Bonus: $50
Prop Bonus: $2 (for starting a table)
Rakeback: $12.5
Total: $285.25
$/Hr: $95/Hr

The crypto bonuses are all a good deal.

I will never understand why people complain about bonuses that clear in a couple of hours!

[Bez]

Can anyone else confirm both bonuses can be obtained? I've completed the 300 hands and I'm wondering if it would be worthwhile to keep playing.

[GoCubsGo]

Not Caribbean Sun. That bonus took me way too long last month. Never again.

Hey Sniper

Got a count as to how many hands you had to play to reach the 250 raked?

Thanks

Here's my methodology... I generally 4-table the cryptos when I can get at least 2 - 2/4 tables. Sometimes you get lucky and can get 4 - 2/4's which dramatically increases clearance on the $1 rake system.

Yesterday, around hour 2, I got the prop bonus popup to start a 3rd 2/4, which I accepted and it filled fairly quickly... so I played 5 tables for the last hour.

Here's more detail on the session...
Hours: 3 (MT Ratio = 4.12)
2/4 - Hands: 470 , Raked: 358 , Raked$1: 183
1/2 - Hands: 377 , Raked: 192 , Raked$1: 19
Total Hands = 847
Total Raked = 550
Total Raked$1 = 202
Qualifying hands = 202 + ((550-202)/4) = 289

So, likely hit 250, around 750 hands, but obviously the tables were running good for me!

The cryptos are better in the morning and on the weekend. But sometimes on Sat., all the Brits are watching soccer.

pokerplex bonus cleared for me 12/04/05 1:00am at 300 DEALT not raked
great deal

Ha!, I cleared the bonus under the old terms for December and today I received an email that they are taking the $50 back since it was a mistake. Im sure this will be good news for all of you who thought you were getting away with something!

In the letter they mention that they are letting me keep the extra November bonus though.

It only makes sense for them to do this, they are getting more rake since people will have to stay on their site longer.

(and actually this was a mistake that was made by eCash, not PokerPlex, at least that's who the email is from)

I just posted a topic ab000t this.

I see that, you beat me by like 4 minutes. Actually technically if I wouldnt of edited mine I would of beat you too it.
