what about Hollywood's 500% + iPod Nano

[Elke]

If any of you bonus whores know a post about this one please let me know.

Is Hollywood's biggest bonus (500% up to $1k, plus iPod Nano) doable at the low limits? Keep in mind I have the time to 3-table .50/1 maybe 6 hours a day every day. I'm hoping for some feedback from those of you who've tried it.

Can I only make this happen if I go big on the limits? Or can I grind it out baby-style for 60 days and get my toy?

there was a thread on this but I think its -EV for what most people said.

Can it be done? Yes, you would have no problem. Is it the best deal, no, you can clear other bonus much faster and tripple the money in 60 days and buy an Ipod.

A 15x hollywood bonus is crap. You could make enough going around to different ongame sites doing 10x bonuses and buy the nanon for cheaper. You need to play at least 1/2 for it to clear well IMO, and even at 15x, I don't like it at 1/2.

Think of it this way. You are earning 15k points for $1000. If you did 15k points worth of 10x bonuses you'd have earned $1500. Is a nano worth $500, I think not.

*note, perhaps if you sign up for rakeback and do not like moving around sites, the 15x bonus would be ok. At full ring a 10x bonus is 70% rakeback (noncontibuted) and a 15x is 46% rakeback. But since you'd be getting 30% back through an affiliate of that other 54% that is an additional
16% giving you a total of 62% back at full ring doing a 15x bonus while getting an affiliate bonus. Whether that extra 8% rakeback is worth it to whore 10x bonuses at different sites is a personal thing of course. And neither of these can compare to the bonuswhores 5x sign-up bonus when you consider $/hour and things of that nature of course.

15x bonus at Hollywood right now = THE CRAPPER

That would take FOREVER to clear at .5/1. Good luck not going insane playing that many hours on crappy software.

Bingo. This is why I always do bonuses based on clearance rate instead of total amount. Do the Hollywood 5X sign-up through bonuswhores. Hollywood also offers frequent 7X $50 bonuses. There is no reason to do a 15X bonus.
