Possibly/probably the grid has not been updated to MPPs since they have changed back from raked hands? Whilst the site info says MPPs, the grid is saying RH, but with the new MPP rates.
That makes sense. | | Static Link |

Doesn`t that mean that I can play at lower stakes and still earn MPPs ?
I`m a 50nl player thats why I`m asking, am I missing something ?
Thank you.
BW hasn't updated it yet, you are fine playing $50nl

| Posted by: Audi at January 3, 2007, 7:19 pm | | Topic: INTER no more 5x in new year..... Forum: Bonus Whores | Quick question, can't seem to find the answer in the T&Cs:
Can the poker bonus now be claimed on top of the casino bonus?
Thanks in advance.
Edit: it appears so!

Codes should be out in the next few hours. I just check the websites, because I can do that on the Interweb thingy.
If Ecash gives a better bonus then I'll be p*ssed.
5 mins past Jan 3rd ET - come on!

Amen!
I just played 90 minutes at Crypto 2/4 FL while playing 3/6 FL at PS, and I made more bonus at Crypto.
47.25 MPPS at Crypto on 1 table of 2/4. (89mins)
57 FPPs at PS on 1 table of 3/6 with X7 bonus I had stacked (not much longer). (90 mins)
Both full ring tables. 5MPP/$s at Crypto. And Sun RB on top.

Yes, I was wondering as well. Also, Paradise only changed for a month, then went back to the old terms...you might want to revisit that one!
Back in the good ol'days (around Oct '05), Poker Plex had a monthly $50 bonus that required 300 DEALT hands at 1/2 or higher. That was really sweet... | | Static Link |

Maybe we should try that. Ignore this bonus for a couple of months and see if Interpoker reacts.
Kick it up to 2/4 and do Interpoker, Sun, Pokerplex and Littlewoods! WillHill we can chill at 1/2.
Let's get some 2/4 going!
Not even signed up for Classic yet!

They died when the USA got shown the door, but it's time they got going again.
I'd clear all of the Cryptos if 4+ 2/4FL tables start running on a regular basis.
Guess it's time I started playing the 6-max tables (as previously advised), as there are a lot more of them going than full ring at 2/4 FL.

The Poker Plex bonus is at 5MPP per $ since more than a year now. What has changed is that you have a choice now how many hands you want to play (and how much bonus you will get). So the last change at Poker Plex was an improvement. | | Static Link |

Unfortunately I have only begun to whore Interpoker in December, so I do not have many hands in my Pokertracker.
This comparison is based on play at 1/2FL full ring tables, which is what I play.
I have played 3000 hands so far. 50% had rake 0, 44% had rake between .25 and .75, 6% had rake 1 and above. (I played a lot of these hands yesterday where due to the pocket king promotion a lot of stones were playing, so the "real" numbers may be less dramatic)
Based on these numbers I would have to play 1000 hands for the old bonus.
The new bonus is calculated from MPPs. You receive 1 MPP if the rake is at least 1$, 0.25MPP if the rake is below 1 Unit.
To get a bonus of 100$ you have to achieve 450MPPs.
With my numbers I would need to play 2685 hands to get the 100$ bonus.
This is probably on the high side of the range you could expect. Thos... | | Read Entire Entry |

Probably your plan won't work. The wording on the Interpoker site suggests that you have to pick one option (deposit or nodeposit) for the month. Even if you can do two monthlies in the same month, they are unlikely to clear concurrently. But you might try nonetheless ...
In my earlier post I was referring to stacked old bonuses (until August) which clear concurrently with the new ones (since September). | | Static Link |

The old stacked bonuses still clear concurrently with the new ones, so who cares? In any case you should clear a new bonus (whichever you like) and the old ones will care for themselves. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: dokoko at December 23, 2006, 12:13 pm | | Topic: INTER no more 5x in new year..... Forum: Bonus Whores | In principle this is a 100% up to 300$ 5xMPP bonus (exception: 4.5x if you deposit 100$). If you want more bonus it's at least 6.25xMPP.
So it's not worse than the other $ cryptos. But the 5xrh times will be over. I'll probably do this one for $100 per month. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: ForgiveMe4ImDumb at December 23, 2006, 8:58 am | | Topic: INTER no more 5x in new year..... Forum: Bonus Whores | the few months of any raked hand counting were really too good to be true
i only scanned the new requirements but it seems like they will reward frequent players more so than the ho's who just pop in for 2 hours and leave again....they also seem a little confusing at first glance.
in the grand scheme of things, easy bonuses are starting to disappear very quickly | | Static Link |
