Help Me Plan a Bonus Whoring Strategy to Rebuild my Roll...

[cuserounder]

I have about $250 in my online roll right now, and am trying to rebuild it rather than worry about depositing money with the current situation. The goal is to get up to about $2500 as soon as possible, to resume playing $100 NL 6-max ring games, which were my bread and butter before Neteller + downswing + lending out money that came back in real cash and not online money..

My roll is on PokerStars, so I'll need to move it around.. I'm currently playing $10 NL, and will move up to $25 NL at around $500, and $50 NL at $1000, and $100 NL at $2500. I can play about 600-700 hands an hour comfortably, so that's 6-8 tables of 6 max or 9-12 tables of full ring it seems.. I can play around 40 hours a week, as school is over and I am going to play full time this summer in addition to a part time job.

I've never deposited outside of Stars, Party, and CD Poker.. So anything else open to US players should be fair game for bonuses and rake back. What's the best plan of action? In other words, where can I clear some smaller bonuses the fastest playing micro stakes before moving up to take advantage of bigger ones.

sounds like FTP is the way to go. don't forget to get rakeback.

UB has a sweet deposit bonus, but I think clearing the bonus is slower now with their pts changes.

Seriously consider doing casino bonuses, it's pretty easy money

Thanks for the help so far guys, I've been out of the bonus whoring game for a long long time, and it's much different now it seems...

It looks like a good first step would be to sign up for Absolute through PSO, get the $100 free. Play the 375 raked hands 4-tabling $25 NL.. Should take about 4,000 hands... Hopefully I don't run bad and go busto, but it's free money anyway... At 5 BB/100 I should have around 200 bucks at the end of it on Absolute and $250 on Stars...

So with $450, what's my best bet? Everything I'm looking at is going to take forever to clear at $25 NL... Is it almost better to just get rakeback somewhere? According to a rakeback calculator, if I 4-tabled 6-max $25 NL, I'd be getting about $6-$8 in rakeback an hour.. Is that accurate? And is there any bonus that can beat this?

If Party and Empire still have their signup bonuses going, that's the easiest possible bonus for $NL. Any hand that reaches $1 postflop is raked, making it very easy.
