Where did you get those numbers from? I understand that Pokerrom 7x is exactly 100% Rakeback Full Ring.
But on Eurolinx you can't calculate it that easily since every potsize basically has a different rakeback amount (the points only increase on certain rake-levels, $5,$10,$20,$60 pots each increase the bonus point level while they take out 5c for each $1 in the pot).
For me the $550 dollar in bonuses at 4x equalled about 80% contr. rakeback at 100NL 6max. So for Full Ring this should be about 135%.
You're right-- it's impossible to give a general "rakeback" number with this bonus because the points dont mirror the amount of ra... | | Read Entire Entry |

Of course, contacting CS makes it happen faster. I also had to contact CS to get the "spillover" points added to the next bonus.
(I had cleared 1080 points before they released the $250 bonus. Only after contacting CS I got the 80 points credited to the next (October) bonus) | | Static Link |

I think I rather have 9x at pokerRoom. I been playing 2 tables for over 2hr at 50nl (.25/.50) and I have earned 2.5 FPP.....sick.
Soon as I posted this, the FPP update to 31 points but I still rather take PokerRoom 9x
Three-tabling $50 NL gets me about 40 FPP/hour on average. It's higher during Scandanavian hours and lower during American hours, running anywhere from 30-55 FPP/hour.

On the other hand I have now to decide whether 6x Eurolinx or 9x PR is better. With the game quality I think the 9x Pokerroom will win out here. | | Static Link |

If a player generates $600 in rake or 2,000 FPPs during the month they will receive 30% of their total rake back for that month.
If we receive the equivalent of 100% rakeback via the 4x bonus, reaching either of these levels will not result in extra payment, correct?
Yes, bonuses are deducted. | | Static Link |

Just seem to have run into a bad run of cards this time.

was up to $1300 1hr ago after my initial deposit of $450.. now sitting on a measly $350
- must remind myself to never play when under the influence of alcohol ever again.. i turn to hyper-aggressive mode and the swings are ridiculous!!
extremely costly mistake, lesson learned!

| Posted by: Savnnah at October 30, 2006, 10:47 pm | | Topic: Eurolinx 100% up to $200 4x FPP bonus Forum: Bonus Whores | I deposited for the bonus and had a hard time finding Omaha games and the games they have were low limit and the rake seemed high. I figured I would try and clear the bonus at the limit holdem games but as mentioned above it is hard to find a full ring game and I am not that experienced at short handed holdem. I tried to get them to reduce the amout of my $250 bonus witch they won't do. Then when I tried to have them cancel it so I could just deposit less for the reload they told me I had both bonuses already even though only one showed up on my screen. So this was bad for me, but may be good for you guys that don't want to deposit extra money. Check with support you may have the bonus already. I deoposited through BW and used WHORE as the bonus code. Just make sure you don't deposit so much that you can't clear it in the time period with the poor game selection.

| Posted by: MrHanso at October 29, 2006, 6:53 pm | | Topic: Eurolinx 100% up to $200 4x FPP bonus Forum: Bonus Whores | First let me start by saying, that I played all day yesterday and got like three hands I could actually see a flop in. And when I did, I was beat out with garbage. Shooter is right to an extent. I was the guy at the table with shooter when 82 suited beat KK. I had 82s in the BB for a $1, and the guy on the button raised to $3, which I called for $2 more. Flop came out 827, and he bet 10, I went all-in with him to $25 and beat him. While that wasn't a great example that shooter had, I did notice that it is VERY STREAKY, so I wouldn't mess with a guy that seemed to be winning almost every hand.
Definitely a lot of variance here.
Bonus seems to kick ass though. | | Static Link |

come close man we can do a group hug.
I was up 300$ the first two days I played
I put 450 in for both bonuses...... So I had oh 750ish (not at once )
right now I have Oh lets see yea....uh I have 73.66
One hand lotto...... thats easy just play the freakin ring games
I have NEVER, EVER, at any site seen as many insane players that are so GD lucky sucking out with SHIT
the last one I saw was a raise of 10$ on a 1$ table
guy in the blinds calls with 82
the poor guy with KK never had a chance.
flop is 82? KK never improves.
this place is NUTS. and its strange the same idiots seem to be winning with the same trash.... anyone else notice.
shooter
last time I got my ass kicked like this was B2B

What are the one hand lotteries? How did you calculate the EV of the bonus with respect to the one hands? Thanks in advance.
Just like it sounds.
You are each dealt just one hand. Winner takes all. Effectively the same as flipping a coin.
Your EV on that is 0.
However, you pay a fee. So, you lose you the fee over the long term.
Since $0.20 = 1 FPP and 1FPP = $0.25 ($250 for 1000 FPP) you are actually making a profit of $0.05 per hand.
Over the course of 1000 hand you will (should) make a profit of $50.
$50/$250 = 20%.
Aw, duh. Well, this is good for me since I have no NL skills. Thanks! | | Static Link |

The way I am been sucked out on the last 2 days 20% EV would be a great improvement.
Though, knowing my luck, I will probably lose there too.
