betholdem 50 april bonus

[scorer]

if you earn 50 points for raked hands in holdem 1/2 and above they will deposit 50 dollars in your account. All you need to do is earn 50 points and notify them for the deposit.

How do you earn point? I can't imagine each raked hand is a point?

i believe for every hand that the minimum rake taken is .25 cents you get one point.

I just read their T&C's and this sounds right, which would make this a 1X bonus! It's non-contributed, you just need to have been dealt cards. And you cannot complete this bonus until you have completed the signup bonus (25% on a minimum $25 deposit 7x). PLUS, I'm liking what I see when I read their refer-a-friend promo. The Referrer and the friend BOTH get $50.

So, you could deposit $50 and open an account in April. You'd need to play 87 hands for the $12.50 signup bonus, get $50 free if someone refers you AND another $50 1X bonus for April.

So for new signups this month - you'd get $112.50 in bonus for 137 raked hands at $1/$2. DAMN! Count me in.

BUZZZZZZZZZZ....wrong answer

Clearing this bonus requires earning 50 betholdem points, not 50 raked hands. You earn one betholdem point for every dollar you contribute to the rake. I've currently played 515 raked hands at 1/2 6max and have recieved 41 points, making this approximately a 12.5x bonus. Not real bad.

Well that certainly helps clarify things. Thank you for posting and saving me some hassle.
