    Default Advice please

    Ok, so I am going to bonus whore my first site. What would be my best bet for a first time deposit bonus?

    -I have $500 in neteller to deposit somewhere
    -I play $25 NL
    -I usually 4-5 table
    -I average about 10,000 hands per month
    -Available to play after 10pm central time
    -Use PT and PAHUD

    I play lower stakes, so I am not concerned with rakeback right now, but should I be concerened with burning the rakeback bridge by signing up at a site just for the deposit bonus now?

    Have you tried Party? 20% up to $100 and a free poker book currently. www.bonuswhores.com has lot's of info

    And $25NL is great at PP, as well.

    Anyone do well with the 100% at Titan or Alamo, or the 50% at Absolute with Neteller?

    Absolute is soo slow to clear bonuses especially at $25 NL. Start with Party or Empire. You'll clear those bonuses in about 2-3 days probably since you 4-table.

    Default Titan poker

    Hey Holdina,
    I definitely recommend coming in to Titan, the match bonus is 100% up to $500 with vip levels meaning if you earn a certain amount by the end of the month you earn the points at a faster rate.

    There are constantly new free rolls to participate in so the opportunity is constantly there plus there are so many features which include:

    1. online support feature
    2. jackpot sit n gos
    3. private tournaments like the one this thursday exclusive to FTR members who downloaded
    4. $800 depositors free roll on Saturdays you get when making a deposit, and the minimum's just $20

    Hrm, as noted above, party is a great site, but keep in mind, I also highly reccomend Hollywood Poker, if just for their great initial sign-up bonus that you can get at bonuswhores. Theirs a couple, but one of them is 5x Bonus, which is incredibly easy to beat, which is a 100% bonus, up to 200.

    Their are a few others at like 7x and 10x, and its up to you, but I like safety of playing 5x, as it is a great starting area. Also, the beauty of it is that you can also add a $75 RAF bonus on top of your initial start up bonus, and that plays out at around 4x, which is pretty darn nice.

    Overall, their are a bunch of choices, but you should definetely check those out at some point.

    I just did the hollywood one, it'll take you 8-10k hands for the $200. The games are horribly loose, especially the pot limit tables. Beware though - they are much slower than party, like 40 hands an hour

    I'd probably do the party one first though, should take less than 2k hands, and you can hit up the beginner tables to clear it.

    1. party 100$, then IGM
    2. empire, igm as well (still works?? dunno)
    3. paradise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! worst players at 25nl on peak hours
    4. cashin/cashout of pacific. play with 100$ free (i got lucky and turned it into 500$! playing above my broll a few months ago, only cuz it was free).
    5. nonstop whoring of 25NL pokerroom/hollywood/eurpoker/holdempoker... its like 80-125% rakeback depending on which bonus you are clearing. good place to develop your play and also the players are pretty soft/weak.

    check pokersitescout.com for peak hours.

    Quick tip;

    if you want the hollywood poker bonus, wait til you can two table or more 100NL. Then go for their 500% up to $1000 + iPod bonus. Will take ages to clear unless you're at the higher limits (apparantly really easy to clear at 400NL, but I cant play that high), but def worth it. The players are hella fishy and the all the games (stud, HE, omaha) are soft as. (Stud 2/4 or 4/8 clears this ok as well).

    Also, once you clear their bonus, use your poker points to either;

    a) buy $25 for every 5000 points you have (should net you another $100)
    b) buy another bonus and start all over again

    if you wanna really pwn pokerroom's bonuses, learn to play lhe.

    I probably should still play 6 tables of 5/10 at hollywood with 30% rb and a monthly reload but that bores me to tears.
    Doesnt help my comp cant take pokerroom's interface for too long either although ill have a new comp later.

    ALso, while i remember, look up i-poker (rb has been stopped though now) as ive seen a lot of reviews recently about how good their games are getting (no idea why either)

    Too late

    I started the 100% up to 200. Figured I could clear that in time with my BR at $25NL. After that I'll get money out of my Neteller, back to my bank, then into my IGMPay account and do the Party and Empire bonuses. Then hopefully I'll be at a place where I can do $50NL and do a better bonus at Pokerroom.
