Yes, it has been removed and I am working with PurpleLounge on a new bonus.
is it going to be as attractive as this one was?
The way koko said it implies it won't be. It sounds like some people were playing the bonus contributing to very few hands. Maybe they will replace with a 4xContributed. I would be happy with that. | | Static Link |

i recieved this too. It actually isn't blank, just idiot made the text black. Highlight and you will be able to read it.
Basically it just says the bonus is ending but they will still honour this month and a new one is coming, but doesn't say what. | | Static Link |

The monthly bonus was up for 6 months for trial purposes. The trial was not successful and thus removed. Sorry.

| Posted by: daraider at June 13, 2007, 5:28 pm | | Topic: BW Exclusive Monthly Signup Bonus 100% up to $100(10x RH) Forum: Bonus Whores | i remember when i started poker. I whored the prima bonuses at 0.5/1 FR limit and god the games were so tight. I don't miss it one bit. That is grinding. Built my bankroll up, but relativly the games weren't that profitable for me personally.
Once i moved up i found playing poker much more enjoyable and less of a grind. I still chase the bonuses and good rakeback deals though
btw can anyone confirm if nl100 is counted in this bonus offer? | | Static Link |
| Posted by: GoldBoar at June 13, 2007, 4:56 pm | | Topic: BW Exclusive Monthly Signup Bonus 100% up to $100(10x RH) Forum: Bonus Whores | Sure. I'll 3-bet a fellow whore (ask Pinos!) if it means I'll pick up the pot. You're the one who reminded me that there's more money in the pots then there is in bonuses
Seriously, I didn't really expect all the whores to be at the same table(s). I've been checking Prima during UTC early evening, and there seems to be more traffic there lately.

Thanks for the feedback.
You want to play at a table of tight whores playing for the bonus with a tiny avg pot size?

Believe it or not, I never actually got around to signing up at Purple like I meant to after getting distracted with bigger, more time-sensitive bonuses (some of which bit the dust e.g. at OnGame) and a horrible run at NordicBet that soured me on the network for a while... Having just completed my first successful whoring assignment in ages at DreamPoker, however, it's definitely time to put this bonus back on my to-do-soon list and so I too would be interested in any feedback from those who've taken up this offer the last few months.

I should have checked the tables but I take it as meaning 1/2 NL, i.e. 200 NL, which clears cryptobonuses at a slightly lower rate than this, but th e crypto bonuses (worth talkinga bout) are all x5 instead of this x10
If you could play NL50, I would be very happy about this bonus, but at NL200, a x10 raked hands bonus is just too slow and high variance compared to the cryptos | | Static Link |

I've taken it as being NL200 and therefor a pretty damn big difference to 1/2 which is a shame when I'd of happily played back at prima again (it's been a while) for 25c raked. I would imagine the terms alienating most nl players from doing it too.
Hmm, that would certainly be rather steep, but in my experience sites that specify a certain minimum level at LHE for bonus eligibility usually allow NL play at the same blind levels... Meaning that $100 max. buy-in tables would then qualify, because in this instance $1/2 refers to the minimum bet increments allowed i.e. $1 pre/postflop, $2 turn/river, same as in $1/2 limit

How is it worse than all Cryptologic bonuses, most of which are based on MPPs and therefore difficult to clear at $1/2 LHE or below even when play isn't tighter than a hangman's noose? At this level I'd currently rate only the Will Hill hourly higher... I don't know exactly what the corresponding NL stakes are ($.50/1 or $1/2 blinds?) but even then I expect a lot of Prima afficionados will find this bonus worth doing. I myself haven't played on the network for a while but I'll definitely be signing up at Purple Lounge next month.

You will need to play limits $1/$2 and above to clear this bonus. The first email I got from her stated that it just needed to be raked $0.25 for it to be counted. Then the second email explained to me that it also needed to be at limits $1/$2 and above.
