Building a bankroll (For newbies)

[ticenl]

Could somebody tell me how up to date the information in the startpost of this topic still is? Especially about the offer for the sites like Sportbetting.com, in this topic a few people say that it really doesnt care on what limit you play and such, you just have to play 500 hands and get 100$ (not even raked hands?). I would love to know if that information is still correct ( I think I found in their terms & conditions that it isn't anymore) and if there is a new 'order' with todays bonusses for building a bankroll from 100$.

I know it's not kind to kick a topic but I waited over 24 hour and this is really a great topic. There must be some of the guys left that posted such great advice earlier to say something useful now. I know about bonuswhores and their list but even those sites seem to require more than a 100$ bankroll.

You need to think of yourself and your bankroll as a business with startup costs. Starting with a bankroll of $500 or close to it will greatly speed up your building process. Besides, you can pay the extra $400 back to yourself easily within a month. With $100 you are limited to crypto sites where you have to play 1-2 on a very short roll. My advice is FIND the money, you'll only need it for a month.

You can play casino.net and sister sites with only a $20.00 deposit and receive an easy to clear $100 bonus. Check the Internet Bonus board or do a search for Casino.net. I believe you can whore this on three of their sites. So $300 for three $20 deposits. If you do it right, you will only need $20 and could walk away with a $300 gain. Then you can build from there.

Thank you for your replies. I was checking out those casino.net / sportingbet sites and I noticed that they indeed have a 100$ bonus after 500 raked hands, no matter what amount you deposit.

But I think they have quite a weard idea of what a raked hand is:

A raked hand is a cash hand in which you contribute to the pot with betting or blinds, this hand must reach the flop and the pot must be of a sizeable amount for the house to take a rake (%). You need only be involved in the hand, losing or folding will still result in the hand going towards your raked hand total, additionally each cash tournament will add one raked hand towards your total.

Maybe I understand it uncorrectly but to me it seems like they only count hands that you don't fold preflop as possible raked hands... In that way the bonus would take a lot longer than all other raked hand bonusses. Anybody knows exactly what they mean with that raked hand definition?

Yeah, you got it right. It is slow going and there is no way to multi table (only because they have very few players and usually only 1 table open for the .50/.1 tables...the lowest you should play or you'll be there forever). There is good money to be made there as there are usually 7-10 players on the flop! But the suck out factor is huge...a board ace will almost always kill you KK. It is a decent place to start.

hey, do all the bonuses on the first post still apply, because when i look on interpoker i only see a Monthly Bonus :
InterPoker will be giving every player a 100% bonus on their first deposit in August over $25! Simply make a deposit and we will match that deposit up to $100!

so whats up with the 90$ bonus ?

[SoCalRugger]

Interpoker is a monthly bonus. Sometimes it's $90, sometimes it's $100. It's a 5x raked hand requirement for poker, or a 25x WR in the casino. I recommend clearing it in the casino. It's a lot faster.

Do you know if the 'only counts at 1$/2$ real money tables' is real at interpoker? Because the IPN Poker net work sites (like casino.net and sportingbet) also state that in their terms & conditions but you can also clear them at much lower limits...
