| Posted by: ramblingalb at June 11, 2006, 9:23 pm | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | Does this clear like Poker Room? Also, if you sign up for the 500% bonus, it says you have to clear 12x what you deposited...clear 2400 points for a $200 deposit...which works out to a 2.4x for the $1K bonus.
That seems good even if it does clear somewhat slower. | | Static Link |

Good luck trying to find any games to earn points towards the bonus. It seems like most of the players are on the site to play in the freerolls. | | Static Link |

| Posted by: Gonzo787 at June 11, 2006, 8:14 pm | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | Review hopefully coming this week on Tropical.
I actually played the bonus when it was a 10x FPP bonus. Not a bad site, but very few games and nothing over 0.25/0.50NL. | | Static Link |

| Posted by: Riverfish at June 11, 2006, 7:08 pm | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | | Was wondering if anyone here has played at tropicalpoker, they have a 100% bonus up to $1000. clears at 7 points per $1. Looks like a awesome bonus plus they have a reload 100% match up to $200 which clears at 8 points per $1. I was wondering which network this is and looking for any input anyone may have, looks similar to the ongame bonus structure, thanks, if anyone knows anything about this site do they have good traffic at $50 nl? | | Static Link |

| Posted by: DangerDani at December 7, 2005, 5:17 pm | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | | tonight will be a multitable $50 freeroll, first place $20, 91 people has sign up already. Will start at 8:00 pm Central time. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: rusrious at December 6, 2005, 8:47 am | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | | yeap, now it's not so fun,lol..... Not sure if it's just a testing phase, or DID they smartn up... | | Static Link |
| Posted by: jankenpo at December 5, 2005, 2:10 pm | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | | It looks like they may have smarted up. I just logged on and now all I see are $5 10-person FL sit-n-go's, and $10 40-person NL sit-n-go's. Hopefully I just signed on at a bad time and they will continue their NL 10-person sit-n-go's b/c those are the only ones even slightly worthwhile. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: rusrious at December 5, 2005, 11:12 am | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | | Hello whores, just to let you know, I'm up $75 in 2 days... It easy, but boring.... Everyone goes all-in one the first hand, but if you wait a few minutes, nobody plays... So, just wait till the blinds are $200, and take the cash.... doing 5-7 at a time..... cha-ching..... Very boring though, just a heads up... | | Static Link |
| Posted by: grimgrin at December 3, 2005, 12:04 am | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | | I recommended it to my little brother. If you have no roll, great way to get started. It seems like it will be equal to cash in Jan. He says he has $25 so far. Not worthwhile if you have a roll. No real poker going on here. Just a grab for free cash if you need it. No one that needs it will actually be reading a thread... this post is useless ... hahah | | Static Link |
| Posted by: ttw22 at December 1, 2005, 9:30 pm | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | | Many online poker rooms (or at least online casinos) refer to "credits." I think there's a decent chance that these will just be real money, but my hunch is that it will be bonus money, tournament money, or divided-by-some-amount money. Any of those would still be +EV, it's just a question of whether you're making enough to justify spending your time on this site. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: pabell at December 1, 2005, 5:20 pm | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | | I think the money you earn will only be spendable at the site, i.e. tournament entries etc. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: guardianx at December 1, 2005, 3:47 pm | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | is this real cash or bonus money?? it looks like these are bonus money because of the way they word it..
" you have the opportunity to earn some real money credits"
big red alert is the keyword MONEY CREDIT.. because this place cant be giving away thousand of dollar per hrs. that is jus not good busieens..
i already won 54 bucks from it and i'm going to stop there. | | Static Link |

It stops at "establishing secure connection"

Rebooted and working now | | Static Link |
| Posted by: pabell at November 30, 2005, 4:56 pm | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | | Mine has updated now, so keep playing, just log out wait a minute then log back in and it's usually updated. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: porkrind at November 30, 2005, 4:23 pm | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | Just checked mine $15...............
Should have had at least $50 or so. Oh well free is free. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: pabell at November 30, 2005, 3:09 pm | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | I reached $15 but now I'm not being paid anything! I have 2x2nds 2x1st and a 3rd which I'm yet to have deposited, but the first ones were deposited instantly!!
So it's stuck at $15 when it should be $24, I'm thinking they've capped it at $15, which is both stupid and a waste of time. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: kalibershandy at November 30, 2005, 8:23 am | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | Nah, I've given up on this. Nothing in the second hour. I think the maximum average is below $5 an hour even if you play it like me. Any other strategy and you'll make even less. Probably $2/$3 an hour if you try to play properly or sit out. I'd say playing it properly is worse. Really not worth the effort for anything other than free money players.
Ha ha. There were four comps on the go when I started, sixteen when I was in the swing of things, and now I've left it's dropped back to eight. Doesn't anyone else have any aggression in them? | | Static Link |
| Posted by: kalibershandy at November 30, 2005, 8:02 am | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | I've managed to singlehandedly triple the number of comps being played at one time. Heh heh. It takes over 20 minutes to blind away the people who sit out, so you need to go all in every hand to come out on top of those who actually play in order to make it worth it. It's only worth $2.50 to win remember, so you want to win 3 or 4 an hour. This means entering at least 15 an hour. At the moment, I can only manage 10 or so. The more whores that flock there, the faster we can fill up tables.
This takes a lot of hard work. Registering, raising all in several times. Raising maybe 100 times if you win, closing redundant windows. I've won two in 90 minutes for $5. I'm not sure it's worth it for anyone who actually has any money to play with.
This is one for people with no money and lots of time on their hands, for sure.
To Mikke, like I said, it's really not worth it if you don't attack it aggressively, and barely worth it even if you do, so it's worth taking the risk of a ban.

| Posted by: shabik at November 30, 2005, 7:12 am | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | bad idea. Respect poker ffs.
But anyways, do you really think you will get 5$ in real cash for every sng won? I mean perhaps they give u like 5$ for every 100$ or something like that but 1/1 isnt really realistic? Seems unneccessary to give away like 15$ an hour without any profit at all for 1 month. Thats 360$ a day= 10800$ a month not getting a cent out of it.
But if u really get 5$ real dollars for winning, hey ill sign up for it | | Static Link |

| Posted by: kalibershandy at November 30, 2005, 6:14 am | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | We need at least ten whores to hit this place all at once and go all in every single hand. Only way to churn out any reasonable hourly rate with 10 player sit and gos paying out only $2.50/$1.50/$1. It might get everyone banned but I think it's worth the risk as the bother of actually playing properly isn't worth squat. Right now it's taking ages for two tables to fill up, so you could be playing for seven hours just to get $20 which has to be wagered in tourneys in January anyway.
What do you guys think? | | Static Link |
| Posted by: porkrind at November 30, 2005, 2:56 am | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | Great, thanks for telling the elite corps of penny pinching ev chasing grinders about my secret goldmine of the last week. Up $50, most players are disconnected and you play only 3-5 live.
Chip stacks are 1500 and blinds go up every 10 minutes so if you get too many live players double up or get out and try another one. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: thomashobbes21 at November 30, 2005, 12:50 am | | Topic: Tropical Poker Forum: Bonus Whores | | I saw some info on this on another thread and checked it out. Tropicalpoker.com will be a real money site in january and right now have constant sit and gos running around the clock. The prize pool in each is 5 dollars and any winnings u have will be turned into real money chips in January. The reason Im pointing this out is because in each sit and go there are usually 4-5 people gone withing the first 4 hands. While clearing a bonus at another site, I just registered for as many as these as possible and then clicked away once in the tournament. Right now I got a 10.00 balance in my real money account. I know its not a lot, but over the next month, that up to 300.00 ready for play for doing nothing. Might be worth checking out for those of you with a limited bankroll | | Static Link |
