Default Question Here...

Ok, I am new to 2 + 2 as you might be able to tell, I am fairly new to hold em. I have watched plenty of games, seen plenty of games and played my fair share.

Never actually played online for "real" money tho. I wanted to get started along with the bonueses and rake ins that people talk about, or whoring whatever you want to call it. Buy I would rather get started slowly.

So, finally my questions does anyone know of any poker sites, or even casinos sites that will give you a certain amount of money just for signing up. I wanted to experience the online type of game considering its different then regular, before I made my large sum of deposits at various sites for the bonus.

If anyone can help me with any info or suggestions I would be happy to hear them. Thanks!

I started with $2 from Paradise, but I think you can get $10 in some spots.

There are threads here (search) that walk new players through building a bankroll from scratch using bonuses, etc. I don't know if any site will give you money without having deposited some first.

But you can always put $5 of your own in a site like pokerstars and play penny-ante limits. I've never played < $0.5/1 so I can't comment on the "poker" experience at those levels.

You can start playing now to see what you think of online play and in the bg plan how you'll build your bankroll and go after bonuses. One thing at a time...

Instant bankroll is definitely the way to go. They give you the most money, although with only 75 big bets, there is a reasonable chance you might go bust (but just play 1 or 2 tables very meticulously and you should have no problems). Most sites are only good for lots of money if you have enough money to deposit, first. My personal like was Instant Bankroll -> cashout $140 (+$40 from play) -> $90 bonus at Interpoker, $50 bonus at PokerPlex -> GRANNY bonus at Paradise (50% up to $100) -> Bet365 $50 for $50 bonus and so on....
