Poker hands are a lower triangular matrix with 1326 different possibilities. Only 6 of these possiblities are kings. Since people are always getting up, sitting out, or whatever, you only get around 8 hands per big blind on average. At 221 hands divided by 8 you'll pay 28 blinds to get $10.

Have a good time.

It is still better than getting nothing. Especially if you are working off the monthly bonus at the same time.

I tried interpoker about 2 weeks ago and am pretty unimpressed with it. I recieved an email stating i'd get free $20 to play 1 raked hand, so I did that and cleared the $90 bonus, but no $20 arrived. 4 emails later and still no $20 >:

How many blinds you put in is essentially irrelevant if you're at least a break-even player (this includes overcoming the rake).

While you're right that the kings promo isn't a huge bonus by itself, it's a nice add-on while you're clearing the monthly $90 bonus. That requires 500 raked hands, which would probably involve being dealt approximately 3 times the 221 hands needed on the average to be dealt one KK. So, that would add roughly an expected 3 x 10 = $30 to the $90. Not worth tossing away your final four tickets for, but not a bad increase if you're doing the monthly bonus anyway.

I love Pacific. Major fish pond. The more it gets bashed here; the fewer 2+2ers.

They'll be credited in a few days. (usually 2-3 days after the event)

Worst customer support ever!!!
Without going into specifics, I wanted my concern to be responded through their help desk and I am still waiting after the several e-mails I sent.

Never again Interpoker.

I think Crypto, percentagewise, has more bonuswhores than Party and skins. I do like how you can combine the monthly+come back+KK promotion bonuses though. Also I like how the 6 max tables for small stakes players aren't limited to 1/2 like Party, Crypto has 1/2, 2/4 and 3/6 6m.

Depends when you play, seriously. I won't play there after 7 pm CST on a weekday. I also play more on weekends. I select the tables in the lobby and look for a table with mostly (if not all) non-US players. This avoids the whores for the most part.
