Default Professional Bonus Whores

Is it really possible to make $3K or $4K a month consistently from poker/casino whoring? If not how much are you guys making right now.

Absolute Poker alone hands out $3-4k worth of bonuses a month it seems.

You obviously have to grind a lot (and probably at different sites...although just AP gets you close).


There are a lot of bonuses out there.

doesn't playing at absolute make you want to shoot yourself in the face, though? i have never played there before, but i have heard bad things. i suppose if you play low enough, breaking even with a bonus is better than just raping party fish. how long do their withdrawals/deposits take?

their deposits are instantaneous of course.

their cash-outs are a couple days from what I recall.


I haven't played at absolute for about a year though because it used to slow-down my computer.
I wouldn't be that opposed to going back...but I'm finding plenty of worthwhile play on other sites for the time-being.

Absolute is one of the best sites on the net. Their software is getting better and the site isn't that ugly anymore. Games are tight during the week but loosen up on weekends and real late at night. I have always done well at AP, even better than at Party. Just not as many fish at AP. Used to be loaded with fish but not so much anymore.

Cashouts are sent to neteller within 24 hours. I have never had a problem with them. I play .50/1 NL and 1/2 NL. Bonus does clear slow but not as slow as Stars or UB. Stars is my favorite place to play and Absolute is second. At the moment Stars and Absolute are the only two poker icons on my computer.

Also forgot: mega reloads available.

I think they have sped the cashouts to the next day. But the games are awful. I left when they raised the rake threshold to 10. I went back in January and the games were worse. I think the fishy players have tapped out because the bonuses kept them alive longer and they could be tricked into thinking they weren't as bad as they were. Now even I was going bad at 1/2 and I never lost there before in my life, without the bonuses and a rake rebate I would have been a net loser, before I eaked out a small win without bonuses or rakeback........

Yes, definitely; you do NOT want to play there; it sucks, I'd probably tell my friends too to just stay away; don't even bother - there are other sites; there's nothing to see at absolute....

Okay it's like this fold, fold fold raise, fold steal the blinds. Raise fold,fold, reraise, cap. Flop three rags bet and raise ace on turn, both bet and raise, river both showdown AK....... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
