Need advice for clearing Stars bonus

[HRFats]

I have two bonuses for $150 each sitting at Stars. I played my very first session their last night and it seems like it will take forever to clear. I played 89 hands at .50/100 6 max and only received 13 points. So I played another 100 or so at 1/2 6 max and received 27 points. Is there a better way to clear these bonuses? I'm strictly a LHE player. I can't play S&G's to save my life. That whole "one mistake and you're out" kicks my butt in the tournies. Any advice?

2-4 6max does the job.

I played 2/4 ring and it did the trick pretty quickly. Surprisingly loose games too.

Thanks!!

Yeah, what he said, or 100nl. If you aren't ready for 2/4 or 3/6 just withdraw and come back in a few months when you are. The bonus never expires.

You can play 150 $11 sit and gos. If you 4 table that will take about 38 hours.

Careful though, because AK is a favorite over AA when allin preflop at pokerstars; I have seen it win 4 of 5 times (I know, inadequate sample size ... blah blah).

Even at $100 NL Stars is too slow - I have over $600 in bonuses stored there and don't bother to play Stars (and my usual game is $100 NL).

At $100 you can release $45 for every 250 hands that make it to the flop on about 7 Crypto Sites (which are also much softer games than Stars). Prima, Party and even UB release faster.
Stars has to be a $20 pot to count.

You need to play $200 NL to really shift the bonuses...

[playersare]

basically you want to play a game where the average pot size is at least $20 per hand (which triggers the FPP). for LHE games, the $1/2 counts at $15 and the 50c/$1 and below counts at $10. but NL and PL at any limit requires $20.

I would think that $100NL would be about the same pot sizes as $1/2 LHE, so that would be slower but doable. $200NL and up is definitely optimal.

NL 100 takes forever.
NL 200 is doable.
nl 400 is the bomb. but i don't like going that high at this point, so i usually play NL 200 and try to remain patient.

I cleared 750FPP's playing stars 1/2LHE. Took me about 3K hands. but that's about 5 days for me, I dont know how many hands you play a day
