The PSO Bonus is 1.5k (raked) hands at NL25 (or NL50, but you pay more rake that way), for 12k PSO Points + $10 bonus I believe, or you can carry on another 167 hands for another $10. You don't need to contribute for a hand to be raked, and there is no minimum rake for a hand to count as raked.
So, pretty good IMO

According to PSO, the hands DO need to be contibuted. However, I also thought I remembered dealt being sufficient...I'm confused. Anyway, that's the potentially bad news.

The good news is your 1500 raked hands is the worst-case scenario. Merge uses a system of "tiers" to determine how many points you get per hand. You need 4500 points, and I believe 3 points is the least you can get. Depending on what limits you play, you can get 5 or 10 points per hand, dropping your requirement even lower. For example, I play 1/2-2/4 fied limit, so I get 5 points per qualifying hand.

Looked into this a bit more.....so lemme see if i have it right.


carbon offers a sign up bonus...100% to 500 but clearance is pretty slowish.

on top of that pso has another kickback off some sort 1500 raked hands or so gives u 12k pso points (seems to be worth a little over 100 bucksish)?

Correct. All of these PSO/Savvy offers are for an additional bonus that clears concurrently with the sign-up. And 12k PSO points are worth exactly $120, AFAIK.

How long would it take to clear the 600$ 100% bonus at FTP at NL50?

I just cleared Carbon, and its dealt. They are not supported by Poker Tracker, so I can't tell exactly how many hands that were needed. I'd estimate it to be something like 2k-2.5k at NL25. Their traffic is quite low, on a Euro weekday evening there were like 3 full ring tables of NL25 and on weekend nights about 7 tables. Also, they have some nice freerolls where you get to play if you rack up enough points, look up the details from the site if you are interested. You get the first $10 of the deposit bonus at 2500 points and I guess it would be worth to play some more than required by PSO to get the second payment. I wouldn't play more than that though, since it clears very slowly.

Also, they do offer rakeback so decide if you want that before you make an account. Personally I felt the software was so awful that I'm glad I'm done with the bonus.
