quickest way to clear a bonus.
 
I made a deposit on Full Tilt for their 50% reload bonus. It's alot slower than any bonuses on Party.

Anyone have any tricks to speeding this process up?

Multi-table?

I dunno what to tell you bro, I cleared $40 by 4-tabling $25NLHE and $50 PLO games, about 3-4 hours a day for 5-6 days.

on full tilt you need to maximize the amount of rake taken on each hand towards earning player points. it's 6 cents bonus for every $1 of pot rake, so on a $60+ hand where you hit the $3 max rake, you will earn the maximum 3 player points or 18 cents of bonus. of course, the typical party 5x signup/igmpay deal already pays 20 cents of bonus per raked hand even if you play the minimum 50c/$1 limits.

I don't suggest trying to clear any bonus on Full Tilt playing limits lower than $2/4 or $3/6 ($5/10 and higher is optimal). For micro tables $1/2 and below, don't even bother starting. also, multitabling is difficult here due to the lack of player traffic.

I only deposited 200 on here, would a bad run at 2/4 make the bonus profitable?

The best way to clear a Full Tilt bonus is to not play there at all.

well, if your bad run is worse than $100, then I would say no.

if you already play 2/4, this is a decent bonus.

if you play lower, then this bonus is no reason to start

$200 is a bit low to clear bonuses at $2/4, especially on full tilt. you'd have to play two tables with $100 each for the clear rate to be tolerable, and your risk of ruin is still too high. earning 6 cents per raked hand gives you a bonus value of only 1.5BB/100, which can easily be negated and then some on a few suckouts.

I would suggest abandoning the full tilt bonus, and instead clearing GRANNY on Paradise Poker with the same $200 ($100 bonus), and multitabling at 50c/$1 for a much more lucrative 10.0BB/100 earnings rate.

At a full table it works out at around 60% rakeback.
At 5/10 and highter its a good bonus.
At 3/6 much the same as elsewhere.
At 2/4 or lowere, forget it go for per hand bonuses, not rakeback bonuses.
