Eurobet's new bonus:

[EricW]

I'm totally clueless when it comes to bonuses and how they workout so can someone tell me if this bonus is worth it? As well, how does it work?

I'm primarily a sit n go player but if I play limit, it'd be multi-tabling at 1/2.

Also, how does this affect rakeback that I currently have?

Thanks

I'm wondering about current rakeback accounts too, anyone heard anything?

Someone in this thread seemed to think rb at euro would remain the same.

It seems to be the feeling of a few reputable Affs that any RB deal had with the old Euro remains valid.

For those adept in bonus math, how long will this take to clear at a level of 50$ PL/NL games and 1/2$ Limit?

its 100% up to 600$, 90 days to clear, requiring you to generate 10 points per dollar, so 6k for the whole thing. Points are awarded at a rate of 0.07 points for each $0.10 of rake in a ring game. For example a rake of $3 will award all players contributing to the pot 2.1 points.

I don't pay attention to rake all that much so cant even ballpark how long/ how many hands this would take at this level, but it seems lengthy, any thoughts?

I believe Pokerrom bonuses all return about half of the vig on SNGs.

No one really knows about Eurobet rakeback yet.
The few other Pokerroom rakeback deals aren't nearly as good as bouncing from skin to skin working off bonii.

The terms of the new Eurobet bonus say that players who contribute to the pot generate points, the same way rake for rakeback is generated. If true, it would take an awfully long time to generate 6,000 points

I did a little quick math after seeing this. If I play 4 tables to the tune of 240 hands per hour. (these are all estimates BTW) and I only play 15% of my hands, that leaves me with 36 hands entered into the pot. Let's say 50 to include blinds. If the average pot is 1 dollar, we will earn 10*50*.07=35 pts per hour. 6000/35 = 171 hours. 171 hrs/90 days= 1.9

You will have to play 2 hours per day, every day for 3 months with 4 tables just to sqeak in. My guess is that they know this. Go for a $200 deposit, not the full 600 in order to have any hope of clearing it.

They have always said this. It's not true, and Eurobet's bonus is the same as every pokerroom skin one. It's not going to take 3 months to clear.
