didn't realize it was no raked-hands required.
thanks for clarifying.

However...it is possible that you need to still 'generate' $100 worth of rake in your play because of the bonus. Basically, this $100 might still be deducted from the MGR that your affiliate receives and therefore would still affect your rake-back....but it is certainly possible that it does not affect this at all. don't know.

As RoyalFlush member 90 or so (not quite up to 25k yet unfortunately), I can tell you that the $100 bonus is a true bonus.

And it does NOT credit against your affiliate/rakeback like a reload bonus does.

Cool...
I just checked and see that I am at 13.8k accumulated points now. So hopefully I'm there in time to get the 10% reload in March.

it's not really a reload.

See Steve Giufre's post in the Mid/High forum in a similar thread. He and many others have had a great month. I have a few friends who had a great month in the 15/30 and said the games are better than ever.

My January stats for the Party 15:

0.38 bb/100

That's still more than I make as a software engineer.

Edit: Whoops, I didn't do the math right. It's "only" half as much as I make. Awwww. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

If one has a 250 BB downswing from time to time, then at some point in time they're going to have two of them back to back (or very close to back to back).

Maybe it should only happen very rarely, but it will still happen.

Err...I mean internet poker is rigged. I've been watching a lot of Tilt, and the "rigged" plotline (after a withdrawal) has a lot more pizzaz to it.

Still, an extra $275 a week while only working 20 hours a week ain't bad for most people.

If I had enough bankroll and enough confidence, I could live on half my salary as a pro, even in B&M. So long as the establishments I played in comped me with reasonably healthy food, that is.
