    Default Something is missing from the SnG forum...

    A bonus sticky specifically focused on sites that allow SnGs to count towards clearing the bonus. JeffreyGB has a nice bonus page in another forum, but it does not address the SnG issue. You may have noticed that I started a thread earlier about pokerroom. Well, there is a bonus available right now that is essentially a 71% rake back over your 1st $280 in fees for SnGs ($200). I'm sure there are other good bonuses out there like this one. Does anyone else think this would be valuable info for the members of this specific forum?

    The easiest method to do this would probably be to just add SnG info to JGB's excellent bonus post. What do you think?

    great idea!

    this is an important piece of info that i notice is missing from most site reviews. also i'd like to see info on starting chip stacks and blind structures.
    Success is how high you bounce after hitting bottom.

    MAX, is this a reload bonus or a first-time bonus (on PokerRoom)?

    It's a first time bonus. I saw it on the front page of bonuswhores.com. There are options for clearing bigger bonuses at slower rates as well.

    as for bonuses.
    most sites dont allow SNGs to clear bonuses
    the only ones I know of are
    Bodog
    PStars
    and apparantly PokerRoom

    The pokerroom bonus would add 7% to your ROI while you were clearing it. That is 7% higher ROI over 560 5+.50s // 280 10+1s // 140 20+2s. This is good stuff for the readers of this forum, especially because there are so few clearable bonuses for SnG players. I am not promoting pokerrroom, I have never even visited their site. My point is that there are some people who are proficient at finding bonuses and deciphering terms of clearance. Salsaforever and JGB come to mind, but I'm sure they're not the only ones. Armed with the knowledge of when, where, and how, we can all make more money if we take advantage of these types of offers. If there is anyone out there with the knowledge and motivation to post a cliffs notes on bonuses worth clearing through SNGs, I for one would be very grateful. Updates could be added as new offers pop up.

    Jetset, Fulltilt, Paradise, and Absolute do as well, though I'm not sure how good the other aspects of their SnG offerings are. I think Pacific's "wager 20 times the bonus amount" would likely count SnGs too.
    I run a training site...

    Hollywood Poker is the same system as PokerRoom and also allow you to clear using SnG's.

    GoldenPalacePoker is another, but I wouldn't recommend that site due to the pain in the ass come cashout time.
