Have read most of the thread and do not see the answer to my questions:

1. Is the 5X bonus a 5X points bonus or a true 5X raked hands bonus?

[/ QUOTE ]
It's based on HW points. You get .7 points for each $1 in raked money, or a fraction thereof.

[ QUOTE ]
. If it is 5X raked hands, what is the lowest limit it can clear at?

[/ QUOTE ]
I wouldnt' want to try at less than .5/1. Bonuswhores doesn't list anything lower.

3. What qualifies as a raked hand? Does the pot have to reach a certain $ amount to qualify?

[/ QUOTE ]
See answer to #1. It's based on points, not raked hands. If there is 10c rake, then you get .07 points.

Thanks for the response. Has anyone attempted clearing this at .5/1? If so, what does it work out to in terms of a traditional raked hands playthrough bonus? Would 10X raked hands be a reasonable guess?

I actually have played some .5/1 there while teaching my wife how to play. It takes about 500 hands to clear 100 points ($20).
