Can someone who plays at Absolute tell me approx how much bonus you clear per 500 hands of NL100 6max?

I find cryptos clear at about $20 per 500 hands, just wondered if AP is better or worse...

thanks

It depends on your style of play as you only qualify for a bonus point when you personally see the flop.

According to BW it should work out to about $10 per 500. I've been looking around, appears Cake is the best bet for American players as teir bonus clears x2 as fast.

Remember you are paying about 2x rake at absolute.

huh? please explain "2x". AP Rake is about 5% of the pot in cash games which is common to most sites, isn't it?

ummm nevermind... I guess you mean that they take out an additional Badbeat Jackpot fee of $.50 whenever the rake from a pot is over $.25. Some gets returned to you if your at a table that wins.....but then you gotta play a mucho hands....this gets complicated /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

In limit up to 3/6 AP's rake is atrocious, in NL it is the same as all other sites.

Ran a quick check out of curiousity and I see what you mean. I checked AP vs Fulltilt and Pokerstars. All charge basically 5% up to a maximum in LHE. Below the 3/6 limit AP has a higher maximum than FT or PS. This effectively gives AP more rake than the other sites at that game level. Not so in NLHE where rake is fairly similar among the 3 sites.
If someone's done a rake study among sites I'd like a link to it. Thanks

FWIW I payed a few thousand hands at Absolute - the bonus was clearing at about $15 per 500 hands. My VPIP was like 21.

to be credited a point towards a bonus you must see the flop and the pot must be raked a minimum of .50 cents. They did recently change the bonus to now clear easier, for every 20 points 5.00 will be released into your acct.
