Nice. Much appreciated for sharing this reload to the masses.
Are bonus releases pretty simple with the typical Poker Stars reloads? |

Basically, you need as many FPP to clear as the $$$ you deposit...
Example, I deposited the full $600 for $120 bonus, I need 600 FPP to clear it.
If you play $.50/1 FL, the pot needs to hit $10 for an FPP ($.50 rake).
If you play $1/2 FL, the pot needs to hit $15 for an FPP ($.75 rake).
If you play $2/4 FL, the pot needs to hit $20 for an FPP ($1 rake).
In all PL/NL games, the rake needs to be $1 to count.
Tourney buy-ins (MTT & SNG) get 5 FPP per $1 fee (so the fee is essentially free).
At $2/4, the pots aren't even raked until they hit the $20 mark, $1/2 gets raked $.25 for every $5 in the pot.
Bonus clears pretty quickly at $2/4, I played 2 tables of HE and 1 table of O8 for about 2 hours and cleared 175 FPP, usually averaged 5 hands per orbit getting raked.
The good thing is there is no time limit to clear the bonus.
The bad thing is there is no incremental release, you get nothing until you clear the entire bonus. |

so heres the question:
If i deposit 100 bucks, I buy in a 20 tourney, get 100 FPP and clear my bonus right away? or whats the deal, it seems like it is much easier to clear the bonus by joining a sit and go as opposed to cash games. |

No, in a $20+2 tourney, the $2 is the fee and you would get 10 points for it...
So, you would have to play 10 $20 SNGs to clear your $20 bonus... |

thanks got my deposit and locked the bonus in, will now clear the Party bonus and get back to this one when no other reloads are available. it is so convienient that pokerstars bonuses never expire.
xdrive: this bonus is by far easier to clear playing ring games but if you are a tournament player you arent out of luck with this reload like you would be on most sites |

| I just reloaded on Pokerstars and got no bonus information at all. Did I miss out or what? |
