So let's review...

May: $30 for 300 raked hands
June: $30 for 400 raked hands
July: $30 for 250 raked hands ...out of a $20 or more pot.

I like how they continue to call it their "popular $30 for xxx raked hands promotion", even when they've never run this promotion the same way for two months straight.

Is this bonus only avaible to you after you play 250 raked hands, or could you play in the casino to clear it?

[Uglyowl]

Is there a code and the same with clearing the other bonus a the same time?

[Tapin]

Uh, yeah, there is. Bonehead omission on my part. Gonna edit the original post now.

[Uglyowl]

From Friday-Sunday is it active from? I tried finding the details on this, but haven't been able to.

[mdrudeen]

This promotion will run only this weekend (Saturday, July 16th and Sunday, July 17th midnight to midnight ET).

So that must mean it starts midnight Friday right?

It will not be easy to get 250 raked hands in 48 hours there. I mean unless you don't have kids or a wife or husband or friends.

I think 250 raked is not that bad if you play $2/4 or higher. I agree that it's impossible at 1/2.

I used to play the Cryptos a lot but I'm boycotting them until they figure out a more micro-friendly bonus structure.

meh..

I'm a huge fan of the "play 1 hand and I'll give you $20" bonus. I have a $90 monthly that has been sitting for a couple months that I have no desire to clear. Cryptos have failed at bonuses.

[boose_bagina]

agreed, the $1/rake hand thing is going to kill them. Within the next couple months (hopefully) they should be back to the .25/rake hand...because the only thing that is good about the cryptos is their bonuses (and well, extremely loose european players).
