Default Re: Moving b-roll, bonus/rakeback

I'm gonna need a little more information, before I can answer your question...

Do you single table or multitable? What limits do you play? Do you play NL or Limit, 6max or full ring?

A general answer would be that (depending on your limits) Absolute would be slightly better than FTP when combining rakeback and bonus... but that isn't really saying much. When it comes to clearing bonuses, both of these sites are crap options... still, their rakeback schemes are pretty decent.

Thanks for the reply,

I play 25nl mainly and have been taking shots at 50nl. All games are NL 6max and i play 2-4 tables (about 20k hand per month)

I will be building my roll over the next year and realise that 100% bonus would add a lot to this.

So it is possible to get both rakeback and the 100% bonus?

You have a few options, but most bonuses will take a while to clear. On Absolute, Full Tilt, UB, and Cake you can get rakeback along with a bonus. Abs, FT and UB will take you a longg time at those limits but I've heard the Cake bonus is better.

Didn't absolute just change their bonus structure again for the good? Although it's contributed rb the bonus isn't deducted from MGR (unless this too has changed) so that may be your best bet. UB's bonus structure is great if you want to keep chipping away at it for the next 3 years, otherwise I'd skip them for now.

Sign-up bonuses and rakeback are independent of one another at most (actually, I think at ALL) poker sites. In other words, you get the sign-up bonus AND rakeback if rakeback is available at a site. The only difference from one site to another in that regard is whether the bonus is deducted before your RB is calculated.

Interesting. If the $4/hr I was clearing it last night playing 1/2 SH FL is what you consider forever and a day you might want to double check those things that you "know for a fact..........lol", especially as that's about a 50% increase over the rate at Cake, if the rate for Cake they show at BW is accurate. I guess Cake takes forever and many days.

No point wasting time comparing Cake with UB...there aren't many bonuses that clear slower than UB now, no argument there.

Looking back, I assumed he was replying to me, which he may not have been. I let myself get sidetracked.

Point taken, at OP's limits, Cake & FT are probably the best-clearing bonuses amongst those named.
