Stars Reload - 20% to $120

this bonus clears in 30 tournament entries which are $2?

You need 600 points to clear a $600 deposit ($120 bonus). You get 5 points for every $1 paid in tournament fees. So if you are playing $20+2, you get 10 points per tournament, and you would have to play 60 of them to clear it.

Essentially, while you are clearing a bonus at Stars, you are getting 100% rakeback on tournament fees.

Are we talking sit & gos or the large multitable tournaments? If I play in a sit & go with a $2 fee do I still get 10FPP's? Thanks for the help.

it's 5 FPP's per $1 fee for ANY kind of tournament. so SNG's or MTT's would both count.

You get 5 points per $1 fee at any tournament or SnG. For low level players, the $5+0.50 SnGs or the $6+0.50 Turbos are the best deal. You should get 2.5 points for those, but they round it up to 3 points. Other than those, it is long and tedious to clear a Stars bonus at the lower limits.

What kind of clearance would I get playing 4 tables of .5/1 full ring limit?

This might help

With good table selection, that should go relatively quickly.

Let's assume 60% of hands meet the rake requirements; therefore you would need 1000 hands to clear the bonus. That would be 250 hands on each of 4 tables. If only 40% get you a FPP, which good table selection should help you avoid, then you need 1500 hands or 375 per table.

Does this put it in perspective a little?

Is this the case at .50/1 limit? When I played that game only about 25% of the pots reached $10.

That's probably at the high end: on a good table, during a weekend evening, while the WSOP is on tv. You're probably not going to get 4 of these tables at one time at one limit like that.

(Also, just because the main screen says <27% to the flop, doesn't necessarily mean the pots aren't reaching the requirement.)
