Anyone try the BetFred bonus? How tough is it?

[jmrogers7]

It appears to be a regular 10x, any rake counts, 100% to $250 intial deposit bonus. I can't find anywhere on there that specifically states that the pot only has to be raked (pots get raked at $1 for NL) and that there isn't a minimum rake (such as that it has to be raked at least $0.25) just like Party where any raked hand counts.

Anyone do this bonus? Is my assumption on what counts as a raked hand correct? What network is this site on? How are the games there?

Thanks in advance for any information.

Bedfred is on the I-poker network. The same network as Cd Poker and Noble. I am doing this bonus rigth now and its a great bonus. CS is really good. Not a lot of players but if you play 6-max this is a must do bonus.

It is pretty good I did it. Support is top notch and the players are loose. I believe I finished around 800 dollars up plus the bonus playing NL.

Thanks for the replies, guys.

So is it true that any raked hand counts toward the bonus?

Sounds like it is pretty soft. That good news!

When bonus whoring you MUST read the terms and conditions.

From BetFred's website:

"Please note: Only raked hands played at blinds of $0.25/$0.50 and above for pot limit / no limit, or stakes of $0.50/$1 or above for fixed limit will count towards your wagering requirements. A raked hand is where you are dealt cards in a real money cash game and the pot reaches a sufficient amount to be raked (see our rake structure here). You do not necessarily have to put any money in the pot for the hand to contribute towards your raked hand count. Tournament hands are not raked so only cash game play counts towards wagering requirements."

Trust me its a great bonus, nothing like the other 250 dollar ones to clear. Doyle's, Noble's and UB's all pale in comparison and I am still clearning these ones.

I did it a long time ago, when it was only $100. One of the single best bonus clearing experiences I had (when I was a regular whore).

I played the .25/.5 NL games. Over the course of my hand requirement (which I was able to keep track of very easily with the live customer support), I made $200 in profit.

The hands that I played also qualified me for a freeroll, which only happened to have 30 players in it. I ended up winning, and taking down another $100.

$400 when including the bonus for 1 day of work...I was very satisfied.

I did it as well. I don't remember much about it, other than it cleared fast and I won a little money on top of the bonus..

.....which is rather unusual for me lately.

I wish I they would offer a similar reload.

How is the limit play there? Enough 6max tables at low limits to clear at a decent pace?
