Topic: Poker Stars reload 20% up to $120 (offering a sign up too) Forum: Bonus Whores

One (1) Frequent Player Point (FPP) is awarded for playing a hand in which the rake reaches:

$0.50 for fixed limit poker games with stakes $0.50/$1.00 and lower
$0.75 for fixed limit poker games with stakes $1/$2
$1.00 for
pot limit poker games
no limit poker games
fixed limit poker games with stakes $2/$4 and higher

So for .5/1 limit you need a $10 pot.
For 1/2 limit you need a $15 pot

For any no limit game you need a $20 pot. This is insane. See link. Any comments?

How are you guys going about clearing this? I am going to wait til double FPP's come out but it seems you need to play at least 2/4 or 3/6 limit and at least 1/2 no limit....

I've cleared the 5x at a combination of .5/1 and 1/2 limit in the past. Obviously less rakes than at other sites, but the 5x made up for it, and better with the double-point weeks, although the games got tighter then.

I'll sit on mine for a week or two and then see how it is raking after the initial period.
