Default Clearing Party Poker Bonuses at .50/1?

Can it be done and if so, how many raked hands per bonus dollar?

I think I have a April Cashout bonus I'm going to use soon and I wanted to slow down and play some .50/1.

Thanks.

From my experience, clearing bonuses at .5/1 is around the same rate as clearing them at 2/4 or so...pretty slow =(

Edit: Expect half your hands to be raked for a point

Pop up three tables, turn on Rounders, and just cruise through the bonus. Takes a few days, but it's an easy profit.

It is VERY easy to clear at Party .5/1. If 80% of your hands aren't raked, you aren't finding good tables.

Agreed, I played 1 table of .50/1 (been on a downswing) today doing COMPBONUS (thanks to the zoo) and I did 125 RAKED hands in about 2 hours. And ended up 1 BB lol.

My rate for the past 5 (or so) has been 2/3rds raked and it seems that every table is sit down at is dead average in terms of table VPIP, average pot etc.

Yes, if you can find good tables it will definitely cut the time it takes to clear a bonus. I don't know about 80% but those one or two extra cold calls can turn many hands that wouldn't count into a raked hand.

I logged 2486 hands for a 1400 hand clear, so not quite 1/2, more like 57%...but still not quite 80% (I also generally play during the weekday, weekends might be different)
