I hope I got it in the good section hehe ... So the question is : How can you clear the bonus fast? For example I made my first deposit 2 weeks ago and I have time until early december to claim my bonus. So far I only gathered points from ring games. What other way (if one) can take me faster to the target?

P.S. Sorry if this was asked before, I looked on the forum for it but did not find it, should I mention forums do not like me? They give me lots of head-aches happy) Too many words ...

Ring games are the fastest way victor, I also found that phases build them up too, /gl happy

Take the time to calculate exactly how many points you need, and then translate that into how muck rake you need to pay.

From there it will be easy to calculate how much you have to play daily. And how best to do it.

If the bonus you've chosen is larger than what you're comfortable playing for - don't chase it. Just play your game,

And best of luck to you,

Thanks for the quick replies happy The bonus isn't big as I figured it will take me a long time to clear a big one... I'm currently at 78% so I'm doing good (woot!!) but I heard people saying something about sng's with points buy-in that will count for your bonus as long as you win something lol ... So thanks again and good luck to you too big grin

PKR point buy-ins for tournaments don't count towards bonuses. Only the rake paid in tourney fees/cash games count towards your bonus, nothing else.

In sng's the phase games are the best way to get points, because although you buy in with a ticket (when you win, that is) you get the points equivalent to when you'd buy in for cash. This way you can juggle between phase games for free and get the points.

Ring games are simply the fastest way to get points. Note that the rake at NL4 and NL10 is twice as high as at the higher levels, so if you're playing NL25 you might be raking less than you would at NL10. Multi-tabling is of course the key to quick point accumulation here.

Yes, ring games are the fastest way to get points, but I would suggest that for each 5,500 points you earn whilst working off a bonus, you buy a Phase 1 ticket from the shop. That way you can potentially earn a lot of points (and possibly a nice cash reward) without risking any actual cash.

The points you'll earn from each Phase (10 -seater):

Phase 1: 40 pts
Phase 2: 125 pts
Phase 3: 275 pts
Phase 4: 550 pts
Final Phase: 1475 pts
