I'm sure a bunch of you don't care that much as the most you could get was $120 on a $600 dollar deposit. But I've had that much sittin back ready to whore me some bonus money for FOUR MONTHS now!! After I had to buy a car late last year I had to return to my year one system of whoreing that dough back while playing 5 and 10 SNGs with a tiny roll. I wanna move up already and that bonus would really help me jump to the 20s a lot faster (I'm dying to play a 180 man or 2!!). If they are truly gone then I'll stick my whole roll in now, but knowing my luck the bonus will go up the day after i do /images/graemlins/frown.gif

The days of the super easy to clear 7x $200 Party bonuses seem long gone.

Stars hasn't done a reload in forever and with their new VIP store who knows if they'll ever do one again.

UB made their bonuses ultra hard to clear.

Paradise reloads are good but very rare.

The glory days of bonii seem to have passed, but they may return some day. In the mean time you gotta settle for the mediocre bonuses.

Cryptos and Absolute come to mind immediately as a way to build a roll.

While the two big sites seem to have stopped doing bonuses, theres plenty of great bonuses out there if you can look beyond party/stars

I'm a part time micro player, yet I've managed over $1k in bonus in the last 2 months just by being willing to play at less popular sites . . . .

If you've been waiting 4 months, that means you probably haven't done the following bonuses:

Martins (5x up to 600, plus 2 200 3x reloads!)
Staff (5x up to 150)
Pokerium (6.67x up to 300)
Goplay (5x up to 50)
Dreamland (5x up to 50)
Poker4ever (7x up to 200)
TruePoker (6.67x up to 150)
Bet365 (5x up to 100 for several months)
RiverBelle (7x up to 100)

That's a lot of money you've missed out on. Fortunately, some of these bonuses are still available. However, if you insist on sticking to Party, Stars, and Paradise, then your options are indeed limited.

Adding to your list - for a small stakes player ($25 NL) there have been two great bonuses in the last 30 days --

Paradise's 20% up to $100 and Empire's 40% up to $200. This has been the best 30 days of reload bonus opportunities in my very limited (4 mo.) online poker experience.

Don't forget that the Poker Network (Pokerroom, Holdem Poker, etc.). Although their terms as not as favorable as the other sites mentiioned, they are consistently offering deposit and reload bonuses. As far as the UB bonus is concerned, don't forget that it doesn't expire, so when you move up in limits it will be a better deal.

You guys really need to stop spoon feeding people too lazy to do thier own research.

it's not that hard to find out where the best bonuses are at any particular time now is it ?

The Betsson signup is pretty freakin sweet. $600 and basically 100% rakeback or better for tight FR players.

I just went through the PokerOffice.com site and got a copy of PokerOffice for free for playing 200 hands on Noble poker. Through this offer Noble gives a 50% bonus for the same 200 hands. I deposited $500 and cleared the bonus in two evenings. *** Caution though **** There has been some discrepancy about what constitues a raked hand, mainly because the reps at Noble don't seem to know. One told me I had only 80 raked hands when I beleived I had 149. Then the next rep told me I had 231 and had completed the bonus. I haven't seen any bonus $ hit my account yet, so I guess it's a "buyer beware" situation at this point. The advertised bonus it good though, lol.
