How Many Hands Did It Take To Clear Party #1 Bonus

[TKWest]

To earn a $100 Bonus on Party at .50/1 Limit it took me 2,237 hands (833 at 6max, 1404 full ring).

This took 29 hours of playing time (probably 15 hours of real time due to multi-tabling).

On the poker side, i lost $1.22. Total rake was $50.50. Full ring tables were tight. I saw a lot of players play less than 5% of the hands.

Works out to $6 a hour.

i was begining to think I was alone with having to play 1700 hands so far with 135 raked to go for the first bonus.

Im not sure if i'll be able to make the third bonus of 1500 raked hands in 3 days. 4 tabling .5/1 that will probably still take me 20 hours

I played somewhere around 1600 hands at 1/2 limit to clear the first part. I played early morning so the tables were pretty tight. If I played at night it could have been less hands.

About twelve hours four-tabling 0.50/1.00 Limit Omaha Hi-lo. Total of just over 1500 hands.

For my first $100 bonus, I also played 1/2 Limit like Davey did (I play FR, not 6max). Though, I played during 2 evenings hours (March 13th & 15th) after work so I had to increase multi-tabling & didn't practice table selection.

Stats:

Lost a mere $2.90 (same idea as Westfocused, lol... probably attributed to multi-tabling more tables than usual)
1,121 raked hands out of 1,863 dealt hands (at 1,000 raked hands, I think it was at high 1600's)
My VP$IP usually is tight, but apparently tighter than normal at 19.00.
24.02 hours of playing time, but actually just 5.72 hours of real time; multi-table ratio of 4.20; I paid $74.00 in rake.

$100 bonus / <6 hours = $16.67 per hour

I had to get 1,600 raked to get 1,000 raked counted....

1500 hands. 1/2 6-max.

Thats pretty good because I've done 1200 hands so far and have only had 600 raked so far. And thats with almost 900 at 2/4 full and short and 330 at 1/2 short.

I'm running at about 50% while you got 66% raked. (10xrh,right?)

[SoCalRugger]

2/4 is the worst limit to clear a bonus at, because the pot needs to be 5BB to be raked. At 1/2, it only needs to be 2.5BB. Huge difference.

I had 4 PL omaha hi $25max tables open. I cleared it in about 5 hours. With these tables, if a pot reaches $2, its a raked hand. And since you constantly see flops in PL Omaha, it cleared very quickly.
