Topic: Bonus/Rakeback for tourney/sng players. Forum: Bonus Whores

shabik wrote: Y'hallo!
Im beginning to enjoy SNG much more but there seems that there are very few bonuses which can be cleared thru playing tourneys except bodog (even thou its 100% rakeback its looks like it isnt very good considering 10% bonus only + their policy of bonusabuse.)

I know titanpoker gives u 20 stars for each dollar (5% rakeback) but that sucks. Does anyone know where to play? I have thought about like 20-30% rakeback but do you get 20-30% on tourney fees? Im not that sure because i have heard very different stories.

I like the bossmedia, Ipoker tourneys and i guess B2B especially because they take 5% instead of the normal ten which actually is a huge difference.

So, any advise?

Ok i think the christmas spirit has hit me, so lets end this quarrell Shabik. But you could really have made a search alot of what you asked is out there. Bodog and Pokerstars has been discussed more than once and there is more if you start to dig around a little.

But alright, it is christmas and I yeah, i understood too that you wanted to know more than just the places wih the best bonuses for SnG:ers but... alright i ll let it be

I play at Bodog mostly myself, I think most SnG players either are at Bodog or Stars that also "combines" it with "clearing" bounses . I mean, neither Bodog or Stars bonuses will make you any money, but it is so to say a 100% rakeback deal, everything you pay in buy in fee will be covered by your bonus.

I as i said play SnG at bodog, there point system, i think you knew how it worked, but basically you can say if you hit a bonus of 200 you need to pay 200 dollar in buy in fees in various SnG tournament.

For heads up you pay half of normal buy in fee, s for instance it is 10+1 for a 10 player SnG tournament and 10+0.5 a heads up game. Heads up games are pretty soft at the 5 and 10 level. I played some 20 too and it worked out too but they get better and better, as one would think . But at the 5 table there is so many morons i cant belive it, but clearing it on 5 dollars heads up takes way too long for me since i hit em pretty big and also used the invite a friend system they have.

The standard of the players is really bad at bodog, i never played at any sites with worse players. But the problem is as you said it is a only 10% and with their history of banning or semi banning people for abuse i would say you wanna hit em big and then let it rest and then hit it big again. Maybe there is a better strategy, i dont know. A friend of mine has gotten a very large sum of bonus money from bodog this way without being banner or semi banned for that matter. I dont know what you bankroll is, but I think if bodog should be intrested you should atleast hit em with 1K, i would say the more the better if you decide to go there.( just to let you know, you cant withdraw while the bonus is pending so you really have to be able to spare this money for a while.)

If you dont have a large bankroll, well there could be a way around this. If you know you have one or more friends you could invite you will get 40% of whatever they deposit, up to 200. So if they can go in with 500 you will get 200 for each one of them. Same clearance rules as the deposit, no change. Okidoki, gl if u decide to try em out.

Next time try search button before posting
