Running out of time to clear PP bonus. Need advice

[KKbluff]

If it ABSOLUTELY comes down to the deadline and you have a few hundred hands or so left, you can always 4 table the .1/.25 NL (or PL) tables very easily even if you are not comfortable playing 4 tables. (make sure they have at least 8 players or so per table)
You will avg at around 7 raked hands per orbit. That adds up to $1 in bonus money per orbit minimum. Folding every single hand will cost you $0.35 per orbit.
This leave you with a net gain of around $0.65 per orbit including bonuses .
You can always turn to this if it is your last resort.

By the .1/.25 NL (PL) tables I obviously mean $25 NL or PL tables.

The water is fine at the 1/2 6-Max. Just be prepared for the normal 100bb swings.

In the past, the bonus hasn't actually expired for at least 24 hours after the deadline.

That'd be the way I would do it if rushed for time. Open up 4 tables, buy in for like 5 bucks each and just post and fold. Push in with Aces and Kings. That should keep you about even. Since you're not actually really playing, 4 tables should be ok for you. If you're feeling frisky, you can try Miller's short stack strategy while you're at it.

You could also just let this one go. Bonuses are nice, but this isn't the last one you'll have a shot at. You stand a real chance of ruining your bankroll by playing too many tables at unfamiliar games.

Thanks Hughes. I played three 1/2 tables tonight and was down about $40 initially. Then I got the hang of 3 tables and the higher stakes (I always play .5/1). I played for just over two hours and cleared almost 300 hands AND made $128 in winnings. I may just have to stay at this level.

THANKS AGAIN!!

I was able to clear my last party bonus 48 hours late.

I 4 table 1/2 full ring. Seems to go rather quick. Nearly every hand is raked.
