This is cool. It means I can play my SnGs with negative rake!

Wow

$500 just to be dealt in and $1500 to winner AND a $500 entry to a tourney for everyone as well? That is sweet.

I just want to clarify something if I may.

They say:

If you cash out any amount from your PokerStars account during the Bonus Period, but prior to making a qualifying deposit, you are ineligible for the deposit bonus.

So I don't get any bonus if I withdraw money first then deposit it back. Fair enough.

What if I deposit the money then withdraw it before playing a hand, does it still stay as pending bonus?

I ask because I would really like to take some money deposit it at party, get the bonus there, withdraw it from there, and deposit it at stars, get the bonus there, then withdraw it from there and spend it on christmas presents.

Would that work?

If you make the deposit first and then withdraw you are fine. You just can't withdraw from your pokerstars account before you make a deposit or you'll be shut out of the bonus.

Beautiful

Next question, is there a fee for firepay to deposit money back into my bank account?
