Wsex's web site says it runs thru July.
Did you get an email?
I have money in that account I haven't used in ages.
Perhaps that's why I didn't receive one.

WSex's bonus sucks. For a raked hand to count, you have to put money in the pot. It's like ACR's old PBs. Just about completely worthless.

True Poker's seems to be right in line w/the industry norms.

True, jek, Truepoker requires only a player be dealt into a hand where the pot is raked. Other than being dealt in, you do not have to have played, i.e. you can muck 7-2 offsuit and get credited with the hand if it is eventually raked. Consequently, a 10-20 game, where any contested flop is raked, will add up "hands" toward a bonus quite quickly versus a different rule where your hands count only if YOU provide action.

Also, Truepoker pays its bonuses in increments, hopefully putting more "bonus funds" back into play than on some other systems which pay only after playing ALL 500 or 1000 hands. Those players tend to cash out their lump sums.
