Default Re: $2000 monthly bonus on codepoker

Makes some sense. But I'm not sure it's as great as you think it is.


If you participate in the tournament BEFORE getting in your raked-hands, as you suggest, then you don't know ahead of time if you are going to run well or not.

It might be better to play the raked-hands FIRST and then you can play a couple of MTT's if you like IF you are way behind for the month (although if you are behind for the money then you also have a similar overlay by just trying to get your raked-hands in).


Example:
Play 10k raked-hands. Max bonus is $2k.
But you are only +$200 or so after your 10k raked-hands because you didn't run so hot.
NOW almost every MTT you play is like a big overlay.
But, of course, just playing more raked-hands to try to get that bonus is a similar overlay.
