I play on FTP, but I have an account at PS and received the reload bonus e-mail. Last time I played there, I played $.05-$.10 LHE, but since then I've proudly moved up to $50NL and $100NL. I was wondering if anyone knew approximately how many hands at $100NL 6-max it will take to clear this $150 bonus at Bronze VIP level?

Got a question as well: Will you receive the bonus once you cleared the whole amount, or will you get it Dollar per Dollar for every 10 FPPs?

And what happends, when I cashout in the days after making the deposit, but before clearing the bonus? Will it vanish, or is this okay?

bonus is released in one lump sum.

you can cashout without affecting the bonus(though there is the normal 48hrs waiting period after deposits like always)

I think you get 1 vpp for every $.40 in rake. and you get 2 vpp if the rake hits $2.00 (for 6 max)

You need 1500 vpp's to clear the $150 bonus

That doesn't seem too bad at all. I'm guessing 3,000 hands or so for $100NL 6-max? That sound about right?

I completed my reload bonus in less than 24 hours at NL100 6 max games, maybe 2-3k hands at silverstar level. But I believe it's the same for everyone as they only count base fpp levels.
