This is substantially worse than their existing bonus unless you play a lot of hands, their old bonus at 500 raked hands to release $100 was great, this is a lot worse (although only back to their old bonus terms).

I've not played cryptos for a while, but is this not better than before? 450 MPPs to get $100. I may be getting MPPs mixed up with raked hands, so please put me straight if I misinterpreted it.

You get one MPP for any pot over $20/£20/€20 or one quarter of a MPP for a pot below that but over $5/£5/€5.

Previously the bonus was cleared with 500 raked hands where one raked hand = any hand where a rake was taken at $1/$2 level and above.

As very rough estimate in 1/2 ten person limit games I got one MPP in time I got 3 raked hands. So this is about 3 times harder to clear than old bonus.

Hi, I was looking at this bonus. Can anyone say approximately how many hands it would take to clear the 1k bonus at 3/6 or 5/10 6 max. The site seems a bit dead at the moment - would there even be enough games available?

Also do you still get rakeback on top of this bonus?

Thanks a lot.

This might change with new system but at least earlier I pretty much never saw any limit games above 1/2.

I think that this promo will be good for all - seems like they have all the bases covered. Im a $1 - $2 player and also play in the odd sit and go - should be able to clear the $500 bonus.

My brother plays low stakes and he could clear the $20 bonus with no problem too.

With the MPP's - you get 3 for every unit you pay in tournament entry fee's too. Im gonna give it a go and see how it turns out!

Wow, that's exactly what I would write if I were writing an advert for the bonus!

And your only other post on 2+2 is a new topic on the same subject with helpful link.

Do you actually work for Interpoker or are you just shilling for free?

wow - nice work Columbo!

No id ont work for Interpoker - just thought it sounded like a good bonus. I see that being positive about things is not something that is accepted on here!

Do you want me to moan about bad beats?! Where you play?

Various places, Interpoker among them.

Playing $1/$2 as you say you do, it's substantially worse than their previous bonus in clearance terms, as noted upthread. It's still reasonable imo, and I'll still be doing it.

Note also that for any bonus above $300 for 1500 MPPs, the bonus terms become worse again.

For instance, $300 requires 1500 MPPs. To get the extra $200 for completing the $500 bonus requires a further 6500 MPPs. The $500 bonus (which you said you liked the look of in your other topic) is insanely bad.

Point taken mate - you are right - the $300 does look good but here is how i see it Columbo my dear boy:

With the $500 bonus it looks to me like to works as the following - when you get 450 MPP's you clear $100 - then when you hit 1500 MPP's you get another $200 cleared. Then you are free to attempt to achieve the 8000 MPP mark risk free if you enter the $500 bonus code.

With the base camps it makes sense to aim higher as it is a bonus that pays out as you hit he different targets.

What you reckon - let me know if I am reading into this completely wrong! You are right though the $300 bonus is most likely what most will clear.

That's correct as to how it works. I'm just not sure why anyone would bother. The levels above $300 are purely aimed at recreational players who already play solely at Interpoker and have no discernment as to the clearance rate.

Tru dat mate - what are the Platinum club promos anyway? I have never even heard of it - is it new? I would never be able to clear them. I will give the bonus a go and see how easy/hard it is to clear - good luck to you mate.

I guess I won't be doing it as I reckon it must be 20k + hands to clear the $1000 and I've just bought World of Warcraft.
