The one bonus you must do...my betfred experience

Yes, a lot of people have done this bonus. However, if anyone has been on the fence, this is an amazing bonus. I played my raked hands in 3 days and finished up 230, on top of the 250 in bonus money. Even if you consider yourself an average holdem player (which I consider myself) you WILL make money on this bonus. Hell you could full ring 4 NL 25.50 tables and just nut peddle and probably make at least 180 from the bonus. It's a 100% up to 250 bonus, clears fast and easy. The live help is fantastic and best of all mine was creditied to my account about 2 minutes after I got the raked hands done. If you haven't done this bonus yet you need to before they switch to a points system or something (which supposedly is rumoured).

Any sites that offer any extra swag to sign up here?

Just a warning to some of you guys.

Multitabling is very resource intensive at Ipoker sites...I have a pretty decent computer so I dont know why, but I couldnt run more than 3 tables here without the server locking up every few minutes. This is one of the only bonuses Ive ever given up on....Plus the rake at these sites went up about 2 months ago didnt it?

I would think this would bring down the EV of this bonus from good to meh.

Very weird...I have a crappy computer and it actually ran smoother 4 tabling than party. I didn't think the rake was bad at all, although I don't have experience with a lot of sites to say how it compares.

I've heard lots of good things about this bonus. Maybe it's time to clear it.

For those wanting to do this, it's 10x raked hands.
Just an FYI is all.

What time was this? I'm doing this bonus now and at 9pm eastern time I find that there are few tables and they're filled with short stacked nut peddlers.

I've found a few juicy 6max limit tables but its few and far between.

i am playing there at european day and eveningtimes. limit 1/2. shorthanded you will find lots of tables with vpip 45 - sometimes more juicy and with a very high "bad beat-rate".
the longhand tables are much tighter. but not as tight as absolute or the cryptos at 1/2. sometimes you find an table with 30+ vpip. three-tabling i get around 100 raked hands/hour
