Just curious, about how fast does the bonus actually clear on Tribeca?

Looking at doing a doyles room 550 bonus for 165k action points. Never played on the network before.

Playing mainly 200NL

anyone with experience can answer this?

It takes awhile. You need to generate $1650 in contributed rake...

100% rakeback on tourny fees though ( for their standard sign up bonus).

pretty slow bonus hardly worth it.

Full Tilt and UB have pretty slow bonus's as well.
PokerRoom always had slow bonus's.
Stars bonus is slow.
Absolute isn't very fast with the .50 rake requirement.

All of the places still open to US players are pretty slow, but That doesn't mean i'm not willing to play on the sites and take the extra they are giving me.

plus, from what I understand, Bonus not deducted from MGR

It took me about a month to clear the $550 bonus playing only 100NL. I believe it was about 30k hands, but mine was also released after 110k action points. I would guess about 35k hands if you need 165k action points and are playing 200NL.

That's correct. If you're going to do it, make sure to get RB.

On tribeca do some searching and try to find 100pts/$1 or 125pts/$1 bonuses since this is 100% and 80% rakeback respectively. The doyles room super bonus is 50% hence not as good.

While I generally would agree with this, I am not so worried about it becaue if it is only 50% RB, combining that with my actual RB of 27%, then i'm effectively getting 77% RB while clearing this bonus.

I would definately be more discriminating when whoring other sites in the network though.

I just cleared the bonus on vcpoker.com (Tribeca).
$500 bonus for $625 rake.
No RB there, but I just cleared the bonus and left.
