In the 1.5 years that I have been doing this I go this route.
I bet all 90 on one hand. If I win, I do it again.
If I win I have $360, then I start to bet $10-$20 a hand on 5 hands at once.
Usually (11 out of 15 times) I bust nearly immediatley.
The other 4 I won between $900-$2200.

EV wise, your strategy is slightly better than flat betting $1.
WR = $2250. Say on average your busting out saves you $1000 on wagering. Then the difference between your aggressive strategy and flat betting small amounts is $1000 * 0.17% = $1.7 You did the bonus 15 times. That's $1.7 * 15 = $25.5
Notice that Pontoon's extremely low HA actually works AGAINST you.
I know your actual profit over flat betting EV is much higher than $25.5. But it's just variance. Just like the other poster, you won a lot more because you got lucky not because your strategy was that much superior than the mundane $1 a bet strategy.
Of course your hourly rate is much higher. But it also requires a much bigger bankroll.
