Hello,

Sorry if this is wrong place to post this. I have tracked account on FTP and would like to use reload bonus on PP. I'm playing SH NL10.
How much PartyPoints is $1 of rake?
How much rake can I make in 100k hands?
What is the minimum amount that I should deposit in order to clear it in 100k hands by 31st Jan?

Regards

Hi lood88,

You get 2 Party points for every $1 of rake.

From 100k hands at 10nl you can expect to rake around $1400.

Since the bonus clears at 27%, the minimum you should deposit is $380 (27% of $1400).

This way you will clear the full bonus in 100k hands by the 31st of January.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Callum

Hi Indrucis,

The site with the softest games right now is Unibet.

They have great software and flat 30% rakeback. You will also get 20% on top from the €1k first deposit bonus.

This should give you a big boost on your way up the stakes

Best of luck

Hi CallumN,

I want to start playing PLO (the lower limit the room you recomend has). Where should I play?

It doesn't matter if the room is connected with pokerstrategy or not. I just want a nice room with fishes in PLO

Best regards

Hi Carrapa,

I guess you are a beginner at PLO and want to start low to learn?

In that case the best room will be William Hill.

They offer 2PLO and there are bound to be lots of fish splashing about there

When you deposit you will also get a bonus for 100% of your deposit that clears at 30% to help get you started!

Good Luck

Callum

Hey,

Yes there are other rooms but they either have less traffic or the lowest stake starts at PLO10 (PartyPoker).

Pokerstars could be a option as they will have the best traffic of all.

Hi Carmen,

I am sorry to say that the only place you will find that kind of action for 25nl full ring is Party and Stars. The other sites are simply too small.

There may be some action on Ipoker/Ongame but you wont be able to get 12 tables running.

Callum

You could try FullTilt, I believe it has the volume you want.

Hi SherlockHolmes2ez,

The best place to play SNG's with a good first deposit bonus and fish is going to be William Hill.

We arent able to get a room with 100% rakeback but we can give you a 200% bonus. This means if you deposit $100 you will receive a $200 bonus to clear.

The clearing rate for this is 29.5% and adds some great value while you get started.

Good luck

Callum

I've started to venture into the world of PLO cash games - and I'm wondering if stars is my best bet since it seems like although there are some fish playing PLO2(6 max) there also seems to be ALOT of regs playing 6 tables +

I'm sure almost all of them have leaks in their games and can be exploited, but I'd still rather be playing against the more recreational players when I do sit down and play(evenings after work mostly).

I've heard that Party has the biggest PLO player base - is that true? And would it be my best option to go back there for PLO?

I've numerous tracked accounts already(one at each of almost a dozen that are affialiated with PS) so most of my first deposit bonus options are slim, and with so few hands per month I'm not really factoring much bonus clearing into my plans.

Thoughts/Advice?

Hi Skraggy,

I have to make you aware that the PLO games at PartyPoker start at 10nl.

The best place for PLO traffic is always going to be Pokerstars due to the site being huge!

They will also have the lowest rake which is crucial wen it comes to playing at the micros.

What I would suggest is play for a while at Pokerstars, the games should still be soft enough to beat. Then once you can move up to NL10 move to PartyPoker were the games will be softer and the rake isnt such a big factor.

Good luck on the grind
