Pokerstars Bonus Math
Alright, I'm rebuilding a bankroll playing low limit PLO. I typically play $100 and $200 PLO but ran bad in august/september and am bonus whoring to get back into those games.
I have $430 on Pokerstars and 225 more FPP needed to clear the $150 bonus. Pokerstars rewards fpp at basically 1 per $20 pot. This means I'm clearing between 15 and 20 FPP on an hourly basis 4-tabling $25 PLO. I'll have to play between 10 and 15 more hours at this level to clear the bonus at this rate.
Here's the question:
If I buy in for a minimal amount at the $100 tables, I will recieve a FPP for the vast majority of hands I play. I figure I can clear it in about an hour and a half 4-tabling at this level with $40 buy ins.
Does the risk/reward ratio justify this gamble?
