Default Re: CodePoker $1000 October bonus

I didn't want to run through the math, but here it goes.

If you are a 2 BB/100 winning player at 5/10, and let's say you want to play enough to take advantage of the full $1000. This means you need to win $2000. Now assuming you maintain your rate of 2BB/100 this will take 10,000 hands. Then you get your $1000, and that's basically a 10x bonus. Not bad. So I guess my normal assumption of 15/30 or higher was wrong.

Let's say you play 2/4 however (an average limit for us bonus whores), and you want the best deal which is the $1000 bonus. Now let's say you make 2.5BB/100. You would have to play 20,000 hands to get the full $1000. That's a 20x bonus. I'd rather spend my month play 10x, and better bonuses.

The part I think that makes this difficult is the lack of games on the Prima network. Maybe it's the time of day I've played on there, but I know I could never find more than a couple 2/4 tables to play at.
