Don't know how hard it is to build the pot to get $1 rake in NL but yeah, you can.


1. Earn Points for Cash Game Play

One (1) Frequent Player Point (FPP) is awarded for playing in each raked game when the rake reaches:

* $0.50 for fixed limit games with stakes $0.50/$1.00 and lower
* $0.75 for fixed limit games with stakes $1/$2
* $1.00 for pot limit games, no limit games, and fixed limit games with stakes $2/$4 and higher

Pot Limit & No Limit

$.01/$.02 to $3.00/$6.00

Number of players Rake per Pot Max Rake
2-3 $.05 for each $1.0 in Pot $1.00
4-5 $.05 for each $1.0 in Pot $2.00
6-9 $.05 for each $1.0 in Pot $3.00

No you didn't. The thing I read seems to contradict it also. According to my interpretation I had to play 1/2 NL/PL to clear the bonus. I learing PLO at .25/50 and I realized I was indeed earing FPP's. So I suppose you do not have to exceed 1/2. Just telling you this so you don't think you are crazy.

lol, mmm no.

It's great if you want to play tournaments or SnG's though (it will cover the vig on all tournament enteries).

It will take you 8 billion hands at $25 NL. Stick to SnGs.

If you read this, how can you possibly not think you can clear it at NL25.

It will however take you forever, but you CAN clear it there.

Edit: I can see it now. You people are weird.

I can see it too...but since it makes no sense THAT way I just assumed it was the OTHER way.


Looks like you need a pot of $20 or higher on NL-25 to earn a point. It will take awhile..but you will indeed be earning points that clear the bonus.
