They were going to raise the clearing requirement by over 50%, but now they have just reduced the points accumulation by 30% (for us that play games that have a max rake of $1.00).
Yes, all new bonuses are at 15x. If you have an existing 10x bonus, it did not change. | | Static Link |

CHE you made a withdrawal and a redeposit and didn't lose the first bonus?
No mine is still at 10k for the first bonus - I deposited and then withdrew awhile back.
Redeposited a few hundred last night to start working on the 10k points. Got another bonus on top of the 10k but at 15x.
I did not loose the first bonus. All my points are currently going towards the 10k bonus with the 15x one waiting next.
OK, so when customer service sent me emails on two separate occasions saying that withdrawals that took your balance below the original deposit forfeited the bonus, they were full of shit. It all makes sense now. Thanks man.

Yep, they changed the bonus requirements, but points are still being earned at the old rate. Is the new point earning rate live at Pokerroom.com itself yet? | | Static Link |

Can you prove this? C.S. told me a couple of times that a withdrawal that takes your balance below the initial deposit voided that bonus.
I personally did it. Redeposited last night to start the bonus and all the points are counting towards the first one (got a 2nd bonus with the 2nd deposit) | | Static Link |

If powerplayer "converts" my bonus to 15K points it's still no good. If they keep it at 10K with the new system I will probably play it off. | | Static Link |

Correction.
It appears this will be 15,000 points day after tomorrow.
JFC!!!
What's another 5,000 points??? Atleast for a $2 rake you will get 2 points now.
Do you really get 2 points? I thought it still was 1 point for $1+ rake (and 0.5 for $.50+).
I deposited for the $1000, and played off 2000 points before the rake increase. Currently holding in hopes of a change to the rake structure.

usually you are allowed to withdrawl
time I don't know - maybe SMRacine can answer that one
Their bonuses - unless just now changed - are all or nothing
I have verified the withdrawal question twice with support. No withdrawals until the re-load clears or you forfeit the bonus.
DO NOT DO THIS BONUS IF YOU CANNOT TIE UP YOUR MONEY FOR THE TIME IT TAKES TO CLEAR THIS BONUS.
