They did send me an email however saying if you signed up before the switch you can still get the old bonus terms. Now if they will only hold to that.

Solution: play sh, they're (most often) over 35% that of course if you can handle yourself playing SH, greetings.
If you just want raked hands either play sh or play higher, i got 133 raked out of 283 playing mostly .50/1, so i got like 2 to 1 while you got 3 to 1... anyways i left for a playing profit that made up for the lack of raked hands so i cant complain... and im a bad poker player so you shouldt do THAT bad there... i check stats and i was playing in a 15% table... lol. | | Static Link |

An interesting thought...the problem is, the clearance rate also depends on the player. Contributed bonuses, for example, will clear differently depending on how loose/tight the players are. Other bonuses can clear differently depending on the player's table selection. The way it is done now, the same standard is used across all the rooms. If a room is so tight that it dramatically drops the clearance rate, you might not want to be playing there anyway! | | Static Link |

Well tnx for info, I really did not know that all those charts are based just on PP and PS rooms.

That would sure be nice, but probably pretty tough to keep up-to-date if they had to play everywhere.
I find the hourlies EXTREMELY useful, but they're always going to be a little off. I use them as a rough guideline, and mostly to compare with one another. I find almost all of the hourlies to be on the high side...the one exception in my experience is at UB, which I think is because the tables there play so damn fast. | | Static Link |

Don't know how flexible your playing hours are, but I find Prima can be quite hit and miss depending on the time. Not sure when you're playing, but I can't say as I've seen everything under 25% that often...definitely under 30 sometimes. Other times, every table seems to be over 30. I also often fin... | | Read Entire Entry |

We gathered hand histories from PartyPoker and PokerStars. However, we do adjust the charts by the sites due to the amount of tables at the site and other factors that we can obtain by the site. Any additional information we can gather we do take into account. Like information we can get from the poker site's lobby and what no. It is not solely based on PartyPoker and PokerStars.

These bonus grids are meant as a guide. There are many things that influence actual clearance rates such as quality of games and number of hands seen per hour...so they can change. They are also based on hands that we gathered from partypoker and pokerstars. We are also looking at several different means to make the bonus grids more site specific.
