i have $500, what do i do know as far as bonuses

[Sixth_Rule]

i've built my bank roll up from $30 to $500 on two web sites UB and Party and was now wondering if i should go bonus whoring. i don't think i can get that ICMPAY bonus or whatever its called on Party becasue i am from canada.
I have already signed up for Paradise and Pacific but have not deposited any money on either.

can someone give me like a step by step process on what to do next?

I'd put $100 into each of the Cryptologic skins (Intercasino, CaribbeanSun, Pokerplex, and WilliamHill). You can make about $150/month on bonuses from these 4 alone.

get the deposit bonuses from Empire, interops and multibet (they are all party skins). They are easy bonuses to work of too.

oh yeah, and if you don't already know there is www.bonuswhores.com (http://www.bonuswhores.com)

The usual MO is to milk all the Party skins (Empire, Intertops, Eurobet and Multipoker), but that may be harder now that they prevent people from the same IP address signing up at different skins. If you have access to different IP addresses it may still be worthwhile. Their bonuses are worth $100, $75, $50 and $75 respectively. Party and Empire also offer recurring reload bonuses, so it might be worthwhile to get an Empire account at least.

Other than that, Paradise is good for 25% up to $50 and games there are currently very soft at 0.5/1 due to their February promotion.

After you finish that I would tackle the Cryptologic skins (Intercasino, Sands of the Caribbean, William Hill and Pokerplex). They don't have the IP restriction that Party has. The bummer with these sites is that the lowest limit game they have is 1/2 and they're slow. Which is ok if you're at Willhill which pays by the hour (make sure you sign up through the web site that has the bonus listed in Pound Sterling), but everywhere else it's by hands played. The bonuses are $50, $40, $47 (GBP 25) and $25 respectively. Intercasino and Caribbean Sands also offer casino match bonus at no risk, which are +EV if you play basic strategy blackjack. Also, to cash out of these sites (except WillHill) you will need a PIN number which is mailed to you. This may delay your cashouts by about a week depending where you live.

Finally there is Absolute Poker. They make you wait 30 days before cashing out your bonus+initial deposits, so save this for last when you can have your money sitting there for 1 month.

Hey...

Other than Intercasino, do all the other sites make you wait for a password in the mail before you can cashout?
Also, My only experience with these skins is with Intercasino which, while slow, has live support and reasonable cashout times. Is the same true with the others?


Thanks,

JW

Caribbean Sands sends you a PIN, WillHill doesnt. Not sure about Pokerplex, the $25 bonus is a bit further down my list /images/graemlins/grin.gif.

But yes, once you get the PIN, Neteller cash outs were in 24 hours at Intercasino and CS. Haven't tried cashing out of WillHill yet.

[Insp. Clue!So?]

What's the Multipoker code? I've never seen one.

[fluff]

If you go to Multipoker they should have the offer on the front page, no code necessary.

If my total BR were $500, I would certainly play the Intercasino skins. Their $1-2 game is the softest I've seen. The bonuses are easy to clear. Be sure to try the BJ freeroll.

If you think you can clear the Party/Empire initial bonus quickly, you might do one or two of those first.

But I think the surest/safest way to increase your BR at this stage is Intercasino and skins.
