DISCLAIMER: I'm not posting this to claim the site is rigged so if your going to flame me, find another reason.


I put $500 into Absolute Poker last week to get their $100 bonus. I know the bonus is not as easy to clear as it once was but I've heard the games are soft and seeing as I had no trouble clearing the Stars bonus, I fealt up to the challenge.

Since depositing my money, I have not been able to get a hand to hold up on this site. I've played 220 raked hands at 1-2 since last week and have probably played twice as many hands altogether and I can't seem to win a hand.

The purpose of this post is to find out if anybody has ever lost money going after a bonus and how they handled it. I'm already stuck more than the bonus is worth and I still have another 800 raked hands to play which seems like an eternity. I am debating just withdrawing the rest of my money and looking for a better game elsewhere.

At what point would you ever consider giving up on a bonus?

Any advice is greatly appreciated.
