it rotates back in every few months or so, usually when there are other big promotions going on at the same time.

if you go through an affiliate link you might be able to get a similar offer year round. PSO has this deal but it's 10x points to clear, not 7x, afaik.

Just wait till next week when Eurobet joins the PokerRoom network. They will be offering a deposit bonus of 100% up to $600.

The PokerRoom network is actually one of my favorite places to play, since for whatever reason they routinely have the best selection of some of the juiciest pot-limit Omaha/8 games on the net. I never play there without a bonus and thankfully bonuses are easy to come by on that site. Bonuses there are equal to at least a ~40% rakeback, making the site very attractive for me.

Yeah the 5/10 short bonus clearance is listed at $13/hour and I still won't play there. The bonus probably makes it similar to playing at another site with no bonus or rb.

then you're not understanding the rake/bonus structure on that network correctly.

pokerroom gives 0.7 points for each dollar of table rake per hand, up to 2.1 points for a max $3 rake. previously, any hand raked $1 or more only got a single point, which was a worse deal for higher limit players. yes they do take a higher percentage out of each pot nowadays, but as long as you have a bonus running then it will all funnel back to you in the end.

no matter what limit you play, a 7x pokerroom bonus is worth full 100% rakeback at full ring and 50% at 5-max. if you don't have a bonus running there, then of course you should play elsewhere.
