$50 -> $5500
As an American player, here's my bonus path -
1. deposit $50 at stars, sign up with pokernews to get a free $25 (pokersourceonline no longer offers Stars bonuses to American players) and grind this up to $600 2. deposit $600 at FTP with a rakeback affiliate and play at FTP until bonus clears 3. Deposit $1100 at Ultimate Bet for the 111% bonus up to $1000 and play at UB until bonus clears 4. Deposit $1000 at Chan Poker (newly opened poker room founded by Johnnie Chan that allows US players and has 100% signup bonus up to $1000) and play until bonus clears 5. Clear $500 Titan Poker bonus 6. Clear $500 Absolute Poker bonus 7. Clear $500 Mansion Poker bonus 8. Clear $1000 Hollywood Poker bonus 9. Clear $750 CD Poker bonus after all of this I should end up with $5581 and I will then play at whatever site I like playing on best, which will probably be FTP (rakeback, etc.) thoughts/suggestions would be greatly appreciated |

This will only take you about 8 years.

Re: $50 -> $5500
I agree
Your concentrating yourself on big bonuses with lousy clearing rates. |

Re: $50 -> $5500
First the good news - if PSO really has pulled the Stars offer for US players (I assume you're sure about this), PokerSavvy has a better deal than $25, as did RakeReduction...not sure if they still do. I'd also check out some of the other deals at Savvy.
The bad news - how are you planning on playing at 5, 7, 8, and 9? Titan and CD are iPoker skins, Mansion and Hollywood are OnGame skins - neither network allows US players last I heard. If you want more suggestions, you might want to share what games/limits you play. |

Re: $50 -> $5500
in response to Boba Fett,
I plan on playing at 5, 7, 8, and 9 because they were under US Friendly rooms at pokernews, whether they actually are or not I don't know. however, even if I can't play on those sites they aren't really that important to my plan IMO. as far as games/limits, I play 6 handed NL, can also play PLO, and as for limits, I play whatever limits fit under 25 BI/limit rule (25 buyins per limit). I don't understand why some of my bonuses will take very long to clear? it seems like it won't be that bad unless I'm missing something? |

I dont know how much u can find these days. Good bonuses are much tougher to get these days for european players too. |

Re: $50 -> $5500
You really should look at clearing as many PSO/Savvy/Regolas deals as you can, before thinking of grinding up to 600. I know it's difficult for US players.
The one piece of advice I'd like to share with everyone.....do your research very thoroughly before embarking on bonus whoring. If I knew then, what I know now, OMFG. That is coming from someone who has turned some free monies at CD,Party and Absolute into a 2K+ roll. I have only had to deposit my own money once and that was so I could start moving cash around. |

Good luck m8. Edit: Please, send some updates here when you have started to clear those BIG bonuses. |
