It seems like a site with tight players would have less rake. If there are a lot of hands that do not see a flop and no rake is taken, could that mess up the result of a study like that?
IF 8 players are seeing a flop and the rake is getting capped each hand..wouldn't that make the rake more for each player?
I'm just wondering.

Absolute $19.24 per 100 hands, 2.99% of the pot, 2k hands

Forum: Bonus Whores | If you are on a full 10 seat ring and hold KK, AA will appear 4% of the hands. Out of 100 KK hands, you should see an average of 4 AA hands. 11 AA hands out of 100 KK hands is significant and not easily explained as bad luck.
For what it is worth. I had 21 KK hands on poker stars in my PT database. None of them were vs AA unless the aces folded prior to showdown.

I had about 30 players with over 20,000 hands played and their average was .55BB/100.
GOOD players are 2BB/100 very very few were (actually only 1) over 2.5BB/100 Which means if you are playing 60 hands per hour it's 1.4ishBB/hour.
SO - if you are going at 2BB/hour you are doing GREAT,
In one study at 2+2 they were taking hands from all GOOD players 1.4BB/100 or above.
THUS. 2BB/Hour would be outstanding in the long run.
Just to give you a basic idea of what you can do.
I had 8000 hands in .5/1 and was winning at 7.8BB/100 when I moved up in 1/2 I'm 1.91BB/100 with 40,000 hands and 2.19BB/100 in 2/4 with 30,000 hands and 1.93BB/100 in 3/6 with 6000 hands.

You have to play a ceratin number of raked hands, usually 100 hands with a minimum rake of .25, to cash out.
You will go broke on most of these sites, but if you can get one up to $30 or hopefully $50, you can start some bonuses on big dollar poker and wild jack poker, then golden riviera, etc.

Forum: Bonus Whores | i played at clubdicepoker (member of the playtech i-poker network aswell) and from my experience i can tell you that it is 10x raked hands per $1 in bonus money...further, there is no way to track your raked hands but to ask support and i believe they are not contributed raked hands, just raked hands...
now comes the downside, they software is downright terrible - it has huge gaps before each persons turn for some reason and you'll be lucky to get 25-30 hands in an hour...further, game selection is poor off-peak and sometimes during peak
however, on the upside the games are unbelievably soft (as seems to be the way with these poker rooms tied to casinos) and i'd say that noble poker is worth a shot if you're really running dry on other bonuses

| Posted by: sleeper at November 26, 2005, 12:21 pm | | Topic: Wow.. how the fvuk do you get out of a poker slump? Forum: Bonus Whores | One thing I've always thought I'd like to see in poker tracker / poker ace is an analysis of your "luck" - that is a running average of the quality of the hole cards you are getting dealt over time, fold or play. Like say if I had been dealt 72o every hand for 100 hands my "luck value" would be 0 for 100 hands. If I had been dealt AA for 100 hands straight my luck value would be 100/100.
Not that this really helps in this situation, and of course it doesnt measure post flop "luck" at all - but I've always been curious about having a number value like that - it seems like it would be nice sometimes to compare that number for the last 100 hands compared to your performance at that table for the last 100 hands.
Anyone ever see anyone talk about something like that? Or do it? I know the data is all there in poker tracker in theory, but I'm most likely far too lazy to do something like that myself. I also don't know if it'd actually be a useful indicator. | | Static Link |

It's more likely to get 50 losing hands in a row in blackjack than in ideo poker.
However, even taking into account the number of hands being generated and the number of players...and there weren't many other players, because it was a new site...the odds were higher that the player be hit by an asteroid than get 50 losing hands in a row.
Roughly, the odds of getting a losing hand in ideo poker is about 50%. So, in one hand, it's 50%. Two hands in a row is 25%. Three hands in a row is 12.5% Four hands is 6.25% Five hands is 3.125% Six hands in a row is 1.5625%
Fifty hands in a row is a alue of 1/2 to the 50th power.
Now, were we to take the results of all the players to play on this site, for say, 100 years, sure, it might come up. But shortly after the site has opened?
Not impossible. But, it's also not impossible that the I be struck by lightning at this er

Turn your default settings to "Auto Muck" so that you can resist the temptation to show any hands. Showing hands only allows others to see how we play certain hands. In online poker putting someone on a range of hands is one of the most important traits of the succesful poker player.
You will give up betting strategy tells if you don't muck. Guaranteed.

yea it allows you to actually play poker after the flop instead of playing flop poker. I don't mind letting hands like KQ and KJ see the flop when I have AK or better. I mean isn't that what we basically want, hands coming in that we have totally dominated?
everyone always talks about getting those hands to fold but why on earth would we want that? I want KQ to follow me all the way down to the river, hell they are drawing ery slim and if they hit then oh well, we basically are controlling the size of the pot so I doubt we will be going bust with TPTK but we are getting alue all the way down.

True, IP only counts raked hands, but since the hands per bonus dollar requirement is 20% to 25% less than the others, it is not that much out of line here. On a loose table (80%+ raked hands); you actually clear the bonus faster.

TV poker has been great for how many new people play but dilutes the quality of play with all learning players. This forum would be alot smaller if TV did not get so many interested in poker and people who want to get better.
Exactly! That is why I like Poker After Dark so much. Because they show a lot more hands as opposed to the few hands you see 8,000 people playing at the WSOP.

From their page http://www.roxypoker.com/signup-bonus.aspx
If I deposit $100 to get the max $25 bonus, I have to play 10x raked hands to get the bonus (released $10 for every 100 raked hands) from my bonus account to my poker account. (250 hands for $25 bonus)
To then be able to then withdraw the money from my poker account I have to play 6x raked hands for the deposit and bonus amount, so 750 more raked hands.
So this is really a 40x raked hands requirement?
The other unclear part on their page is the time limit. Does the 7 day limit apply to just releasing the bonus to your poker account or also to making it withdrawable?

Also, the Party Poker skin seems to be the only one that increased the amount of hands needed. The Intertops reload was still 5 hands for a dollar...Empire actually might have been 7 hands per dollar. Still I think its pretty good. As long as it's 1000 hands or less, I'm definitely in.

Agree! take a break ...even sit out in the tourney and go for a smoke.
Also try to get poker tracker etc saves you all the writing down and lets you concentrate on the game. Review the play your opponents make and see if they have any reads (telegraphing their hands) that you are missing.
If you can peg the type of player ie LAG etc it also helps as you can put them on a range of hands and adjust your play accordingly.
I play a lot of SNG's (low stakes) and with certain regular players. Using poker tracker I waded through the info and have pegged most of them on the hands they play and their bet amounts(took me two days..during which I didnt play any poker). Needless to say they are convinced I can see their hands . The one guy will not even sit at the same table as me anymore....and he is one of the more solid players...LOL. This doesnt always work of cos but its a big help.

If you want to calculate it yourself, take your profit, divide it by however many hundred hands, that equals profit per hundred hands. Now divide this by the Big Bet (twice the BB). So say you've played 500 hands and made $25 at $0.05/$0.10. That's $5 per hundred hands (25/5), and 5/.2 = 25 BB/100 hands.

Good to know. Thanks for posting this. I'll stick with the 5Stud.
Just to recap, to clear the reload bonuses (is there a new one this week?) it's 100 contributed raked hands of .25/.50 or higher. | | Static Link |

<Raises hand>...me...me...pick me...
Looking at my PokerPattern for the last 90,000 hands, I can see the tops and bottoms of all of my swings:
Code: Hands 1 - 9,800: +440 BB
Hands 9,801 - 28,000: -545BB
Hands 28,001 - 58,000: +633BB
Hands 58,001 - 82,000: -350BB
Hands 82,001 - today: +260BB
I'm positive that I have no idea what kind of player I am...Just that I'm currently up 438BB over 90,000 hands...
The latest upswing is after taking a week off from poker to review my game. I found the obvious leaks (QTo no good)...the less obvious ones I'm still trying to find...

I don't know if I'm telling anything new in this post, but I have done some research about Microgaming network (Prima). I currently play/whore at levels 25NL and 50NL. The only reasonable bonus system at Prima for my level is a 10x raked hand scheme. I have looked into terms and conditions of every Prima site bonus after playing Poker Host promotion: 100% up to 2000$, where I deposited 500$. The clearance rate for my ~20% PF basic game was: 4-tabling (2 full-ring, 2 short-handed) was 50 r.h. per hour at 20NL and 100+ r.h. at 50NL. Playing 4-5 hours a day I got 250-500 r.h. per day. So for 500$ bonus 10 days at 50NL should do it.
I hope I didn't make it too complicated. Now here's a LIST of Prima sites with the same clearance terms(10x raked hands per 1 bonus$, non-contributed):
-Golden Tiger 50% -> 200$ (2000 raked hands)
-Captain Cook's poker 50% -> 200$ (2000 raked hands)
-Aztec Riches 50% -> 200$ (2000 raked hands)
-Virtual City Poker 50% -> 200$ (2... | | Read Entire Entry |
