Default Re: (Another) Change to Interpoker bonus, micros now count (sort of)

The bonus IS better now but depending on what limit you play probably not as good as it was before three months ago.

If you play 1/2 full ring, about 70% of the hands are raked of which about 20% are for 1$ and the remaining 50% for less than a dollar (I dont have access to my PT stats right now so this is a crude estimate). This increases you effective rh ratio from 20 to 32.5 hands per 100. Party bonii at full 1/2 clear at about 65rh/100. Since Crypto clears at 5x it is an equivalent to a 10x Party bonus. These are all rough estimates but my feeling is I came pretty close.
All in all, it seems it paid that I continued to deposit there and waited them out.
You'll also get a baseball cap and Supersystem2 if you play 1000 raked hands.

I also got this one:
**********
Throughout September you’ll have the chance to pick up an Exclusive InterPoker Baseball Cap AND the definitive Poker book: Doyle Brunson’s Super System 2.

Here’s how to get these amazing gifts:

In August you played 79 hands* (where ANY rake was taken) in account oops

If you play 379 hands* in account oops throughout September you’ll receive an Exclusive InterPoker Baseball Cap!

If you play 779 hands* in account oops throughout September you’ll not only get the InterPoker Cap, but also a copy of Doyle Brunson’s Super System 2!

We've also created a tool on our website (separate and different from the “My Promotions” tab), which enables you to keep track of the number of hands* you've played towards these amazing gifts - this will be available on the website in the next couple of days.

***********

This one seems to be somewhat account specific because it cannot be a coincidence that I have played 79 rh last month and have to play now 7 79 raked hands to get the book. I wonder what the requirement would have been if I had played 500 raked hands or zero hands last month.

If I'll do at least two bonii this month I'll get the book. Nice!
