Just got Empire 500 Bonus--- best strategy for the 2500 raked hands?

[$DEADSEXE$]

Hey guys, just signed up at empire Poker and got the $500 matching bonus.
Just curious for those who have done it before what your strategy for playing the 2500 raked hands is..
Just stick to the $50/$1?
How long did it take you guys?

Thanks

if you are decent at shorthanded then 1/2 shorthanded goes much faster than .50/1

yeh I was thinking of going there...I kept getting aa,kk's etc broken by 2/5 off suit and 3/4 high flushes.
But its just the number of hands right..not the total rake.

Anyone?
I'm in this same position, I typically don't go after these things, but $500 seems to good to pass up.
If I sign up at Empire with a different IP address, can I fund that account with same neteller account I use to fund Party Poker?

There are dozens of posts about empire500 in the past 3 months. Use the forum search feature.

OP: I made a few hundred $$ at .5/1 omaha/8 and I'd never played it before starting my Empire500. Almost every o/8 hand is raked but you get less hands per hour vs. HE.

I thought they got rid of the 500??
