You, as an apparent expert on casino bonuses, might notice that good bonuses are dying, the average poker player doesn't. So we don't care if we scare the casino's, because casino bonuses are just a little extra we pick up now and then. We pick up some bonuses along the way, things that aren't too complicated, that aren't too risky, and that don't involve too much research.
Since there is always poker, we don't care about casino bonuses enough to put lots of time and effort into them. So don't be shocked or amazed if we laugh at the consequences of publicly discussing them. If we don't use these forums for finding them, they might as well not exist.

Interesting thoughts. I am wondering how you guys would react if someone wrote a powerful poker bot and gave out a three-month trial out to everybody on this and other forums. Or even widely advertized it on TV. A bot quick to install, hard to detect, easy $10/hr/computer for anyone.
When confronted by a bunch of poker players who lost their profits he would say he does not care since he does not make money playing poker, he makes money writing bots. What would you say?

1) WTF 10/hr? there are 100s here who make 20+ times this.
2) You set up your hypothetical wrong. A bot like this would increase the earn of most players here.
3) He is cheating (according to site rules and poker ethics) while talking about bonuses isn't, so this analogy is complete BS if you are trying to debate moral ground.
4) You act like bonus whoring is some noble pursuit, when really it's a much worse way to make a living than nearly everything, including poker.
I wasnt even going to do the BJ promo because since I would be really slow having played almost no BJ, even with betting the max, my hourly woulda been higher playing poker with less variance. Bearhustler nailed our perspective.
