Yep I was stuck at 58 points yesterday and sent them an email. Planning on getting up to 75 points then cashout most of the bankroll.

Thank you for contacting us.
Unfortunately the promotion for 50 points was for a limited time only, at the moment the requirements are 75 poker pending points in order to liberate $10.
Our website indicates in the terms and conditions for our bonus offers, "Absolute Poker reserves the right to change, modify, or cancel any promotion at its discretion" (
http://www.absolutepoker.com/promotions/terms.asp).
We realize that changing the terms under which our bonus clears can be upsetting to some of our players, and it is not a decision that we take lightly.
We have made very few changes to these terms and conditions over the years, but from time to time business considerations require that we review our promotions and make changes.
This change applies to all player accounts equally from the date the conditions were modified. It is not a retroactive decision (we are not changing the terms for bonus amounts that have already been earned) but does affect how bonuses are released from all accounts as of the date that the change came into effect.
We are sorry if you feel that this is unfair, but in the circumstances, we will not be applying the old terms to bonus amounts currently pending in player accounts.
Thanks for playing at Absolute Poker! If there is anything else we can help you with, please let us know. We are here for you!

Can I get some input on how the old bonus system compares to Vegas Poker 247 with rakeback?
