Need advice for clearing Stars bonus - Page 2

most 2/4 games have an average pot size of $20-25 which doesn't seem all that great, are most players just loose preflop then passive post flop or what? I do know that it's really more like $24-29 avg pot in party poker terms because they count uncalled bets.

How many hands does it take to clear 500 FFP's at 2/4 full?

3/6 six max clears really fast, if you have like 1500 bucks just pop it in there and 4-table

Didn't get to play as many hands as I would've liked to tonight b/c I'm clearing some other stuff now as well, but I'm going to revise my estimate on # of hands necessary to clear 500 FPPs at $2-4 full at 1100-1200 regular (not raked) hands. This isn't too bad at all. Table selection is very important, FWIW.

I think you are close. 1100-1200 per 500FPP at 2/4 full ring. I am only playing there when I have some spare time and do not feel like party so I am sure my numbers have yet to converge but they seem to agree.

You can play 150 $11 sit and gos. If you 4 table that will take about 38 hours.

If you're going to 4-table SNGs, play the 15+1 turbos instead. Less % rake and a faster tourney time (something like around a 38-minute average versus a 53-minute average at the PS 10+1s, based on my own stats -- YMMV). If you 4-table continuously, you can get around 6 in per hour, on average, and can clear this in about 25 hours of play, give or take.

Play a few $500 HU matches. It'll be worked off in no time.

I got the latest bonus to clear at $3.20/hr/table at $1/$2. That's lower the BW claims at $4.50/hr/table, but this was during the bonus period when there were a whole lot of whores clearing.
