oh right, it's 250, not 300. So it's 5x, not 6x. My fault

In reality of course you have to play more than 250 hands per month (although unless you are trying to clear it at 1/2 it should only be around 300 hands or so). But that doesnt make it considered more than 5x because many of the other sites that say they are 12x are not really 12x either, they all have all sorts of ways of figuring out what a raked hand is.

And just because you are only playing 1/2 certainly doesnt make it more than 5x. Even if you played 1/2 short you would be generating more raked hands. I generally clear these bonuses in a couple days at 2/4 for about 33% more dealt hands than I needed as raked hands.
