Clearance rate is in the vicinity of $2/hr. It gets cleared every time you stand up from the table. (You get a popup saying "You have earned 8.75 UltimatePoints, and cleared 87 cents of bonus", or whatever.)

I just finished this bonus. It took me ~ 20,000 hands to clear it. I started at 1/2 limit, and I moved up to 2/4 as my bankroll grew, so about half the hands were at each of those levels.

As someone else said, you get credit when you leave the table, and it never expires. The games there have been great lately too.

Be sure to get rakeback too. I generated over $400 just clearing the bonus.

Good luck,

Fitz

Don't forget about the cash for points. This adds another $1/hr+-. For example, clear 3000 points this week. You get $300 in bonus. Then add cash for points. 3000 points coverts to $225. Your at $525. Now add rakeback. 3000 pts is a lot to clear in a week, but I've been playing a bit.

Is it just me? I've got a ton of pending bonus dollars at UB that I don't bother going after cause it takes FOREVER to get them. I never did the math, but I know that the other sites, like Full Tilt, give my bonus back much faster.

How do you get rakeback?

Depends on what you play. Going by BW's charts, FT clears faster at all but the lowest NL stakes, and from around 3/6 and up at fixed limit. UB is quicker at the lower limits. Add in the cash for points, UB kicks butt at the lower limits, but FT is still better at 1/2 NL & up, and 4/8 FL & up.

From my own personal experience, I play mostly 1/2 limit, UB is a much better bonus.

UB is not bad with rb and bonus at the low levels, they add about 2 BB/100 for me at NL25 fullring.
