What tables to play for Absolute bonus?

Wondering what limits qualify as 1 point for every raked hand? Is it just any hand that reaches 25 cents gets 1 point for you, no matter the stakes?

Yes.

if you play $3/6 or higher then you can receive 2 points per raked hand.

Alright thanks for the help u 2. Quick question, how big does the hand have to be to be raked for you to get those points?

[playersare]

the pot has to be at least 5 bucks with a flop in order to be raked a quarter.

only exception might be with 50c/$1 fixed limit games. since absolute rakes 10c for every $2 for that particular level, then you might have to hit $6 w/flop to earn a point there.

to guarantee at least one player point per raked hand, you should play no less than $1/2 LHE.

Alright thanks for the helpful info. I only deposited 600 to get the max 35% bonus. Should i deposit more so I don't go on too many harmful downswings multi talbing 1/2?

well you're getting about $5 in bonus dollars per table just for getting cards dealt, you don't think a 300 BB bankroll will hold up for +/- 2500 hands?

you would have to lose 14.5BB/100 on AVERAGE playing $1/2, including the bonus dollars, to bust out on that promo. that would be some serious ass bad luck (or perhaps something more fundamentally wrong with your play).

Where did you read that you get double points for 3/6 and above?

I have not been getting double points

"Points are awarded to players as follows:

2. 1 point for every hand played in a REAL money ring game with a limit of $2/$4 or lower that has collected at least the minimum rake ($.25).

3. 2 points for every hand played in a real money ring game with a limit of $3/$6 or higher that has collected at least the minimum rake ($.25)."

perhaps you get two ARP's for tourneys and whatnot, but they don't count towards the bonus? sorry I didn't think of that.

I was asking about bonus clearing points. You had me excited for awhile.

Thanks for the reply
