Whats going on with Royal Vegas Poker?

I didnt do the 100% sign up bonus when first posted and missed out on the upfront bonus (I guess).

I sign up tonight through bonus whores and make my 100 dollar deposit. I then chat with live support and they say neteller is having problems and they can not see my deposit. I say ok, when you can see it when will it be credited. Support says after 100 hands. I ask do you mean 100 or 1000 hands? he says 100. I say are you sure its 100 hands, and then I can cash out the bonus if I wish? he says yes stakes have to be at least .25/.50.

So whats the story, should I get the bonus before playing or after 100 or after 1000 hands?

T&C's are here and it looks like I should get it up front still.

This is what I was hoping to do, I haven't tried any qualifiers for this years WSOP. This was gonna be my instant Qualifer Roll.

Though I'm not one of the OPs you called a moron, curious as to why you said that?

he's probably referring to the fact that people are depositing, getting the bonus, and withdrawing their deposit and playing with the bonus

it's pretty stupid actually

it's no wonder promotions get taken away

It may be stupid for someone with a huge bankroll that already plays at higher limits, but for a micro-limit player it's an opportunity that doesn't come along very often. When you're used to playing .10/.25 (or even smaller) NL tables, the chance to play a 100NL table or to enter a tourney with a buyin that would normally be 1/2 your bankroll with someone else's money is hard to pass up.
