Default So I\'m thinking about whoring Absolute...

Did some research on BW.com, but I couldn't find answers to the following questions.

1) Does the bonus expire? Or is it like Stars and UB where you have infinity to clear it?

2) Do you have to clear the entire requirement... or does it release in increments?

3) Worth doing? I've heard it takes a long time.

You have 1810 posts here and you don't know how to evaluate a site or a sites bonus on your own yet?

No wonder no one will answer you.

Ok, heres what you shoud do.

1. Drink heavily, for at least 48 hours.

2. Sleep it off, when you wake up it will seem like a bad dream.

3. Go back to your favorite RB party skin and show everyone who the real boss is.

Absolute is a cool site but I cant play 3 tables because it sucks up my computer resources on my desktop and moy notebook is ok for 3 tabling, but I feel like I am missing something if I cant have multiple accounts open at a time and I really dont like playing with my notebook next to my main computer with 2 mice.

I am doing it at the mo, playing 0.5/1$ generally have to play 200-250 hands to gain 100 raked hands for each $10. It is deposited in increments thankfully.

The very very small table selection makes it difficult to acheive easily. Reckon it is going to take me best part of 3 weeks to earn the full bonus (maybe longer), the bonus expires after 60days and any unearnt 10$ increments lost.

the site typically states between 4000-6000 players with 400-800 tables but I have to imagine that half of them are on play tables because it has far less tables than other 4000-6000 player sites.

I posted a request for some assistance in gathering hands played/raked information this last week and got no response. I was wanting to accumulate data for different game limits to calculate the crearability of various bonuses at different sites. The results were to be shared with anyone asking questions like this. The only response I got was something to the effect of "Bonus Whores does this". While Bonus Whores does give some info about some of the sites, I was going to go into more detail. I hope you get the answersd you are looking for, as I too am interested in Absolute, but am wondering if it is another UB.

I agree, I did some whoring on AP and found Party with no bonus was higher EV.

If you are starting out w/not much money Aboslute Poker can be a great Bank Roll Builder. It seems like every week they offer a 15% Neteller Bonus up to $100(In fact they have one today). Party may have a higher EV, but if you are looking for no negative variance and a positive EV, not much better place to go than Absolute Poker.

You'll have to play between 6:00pm and 11:00 pm eastern IMO to get 3 tables going fairly easily.
