Party most hands played bonus /Or/ Bonus Whoring is for idiots

[gambelero2]

Party has a bonus where they pay the top 200 people or so based on number of raked hands played. It starts at 3:00 and ends at midnight.

I had to clear a bonus, so I spent about 3 hours 3 and 4 tabling pl omaha at a moderate level (high enough for almost every hand to qualify for a rake).

Just out of curiosity, I checked at about 6:00PM to see what my status was, the graphic said I needed to play another 600 hands to make the bottom of the top 200 people.

I suspect that the average person who qualifies for the bonuses (from $50 to $200 I think) will pay about 20 times the amount of their bonus in rake. I would love to have access to Party's info on what the average person lost in order to get this silly bonus.
