New deposit promo for Paradise, what do you think???
 
Just got it this morning and thought I should notify all you bonus whores.
Wanted some input on how long you think it would take to clear this under these conditions.

this looks the same as their current conditions for clearing first deposit bonuses (which have been changed from the original one of 200 raked hands for any amount).

it definitely ranks as one of the harder ones to clear, but at a typical 50 hands/hr. it's still worth $5 per.

wasn't Paradise's single promotional claim to fame an occasional deposit bonus that was so easy to clear that it was far and away the best ever?

When will they have one of those?

Can you ever make a post not entirely consisting of questions?

You have to play 1000 hands to get your $100 bonus released. That is probably achievable, but much less attractive than the 500 hands that Party requires for a $100 bonus.

So you need to play hands equalling 10 times the number of bonus dollars, which is twice as much as the 5 times the number of bonus dollars that Party requires.

And Paradise seems much tighter whenever I watch. I am afraid to play there.

Why? There is always something more I would like to know. I cannot think of a single reason to stop asking quesions(sic)

I'm not saying to completely quit asking questions. But 90% of the questions you ask are semi-rhetorical bullshit that do nothing but clog the forum.

This is part of the reason there are so many posters that dislike you.

Satan & Hitler are having a heads up no limit snow angel match as we speak.

Unfortunetly I was caught between 'whores and have to pull some money from Party to try and catch this one. If I make it in time I can have the elite 3-tables, 3-site 'whorefest going. I emailed support to see if they'll give me a 1-2 day extension, they've usually done that in the past.

Blah
 
This bonus will take twice as long to clear as the Party bonus (1000 hands vs 500 hands).

In the past, Paradise's bonuses only took 100 hands to clear.
