Choose the path that suits your starting bankroll. Starting with the top poker room, click the link, open an account and make a deposit. PLAY SOLID POKER!!! We suggest the deposit amount, the limit, and multi-table scenario for you. In addition, we provide you with an estimation of the time necessary to complete the bonus requirements. If you vary from our suggestions, you will need to adjust the time estimates provided.
Example: We suggest you deposit $100 for a $50 max bonus. To clear the bonus we suggest you play 2 $1/$2 tables at once. This should clear the bonus in four hours. If you decide to only play one table at a time, you will need to double the time estimate (8 hours instead of 4). If you play four tables at once (a risky prop for new players!), you can cut the time requirement in half (2 hours instead of 4). Additionally, if you decide to deposit less than $100 (thereby receiving a smaller bonus), the time requirement will be less. NOTE: Depending on the rake structure, moving up in stakes, does not necessarily cut down on the time requirement (i.e. doing 2/4 instead of 1/2 does not mean you will clear the bonus twice as fast). Play the limit you feel most comfortable with.
The assumption that we make is that you will be break-even in your poker play. Obviously, we hope you are winning money at poker in addition to your bonuses, but bad luck streaks will occur.
If you reach a point where your bankroll reaches 1/2 of it's starting level, move to playing one table only until you build back up or until you clear the site's bonus. This will add time to clearing the bonus, but should help you avoid "going broke". Of course, you could reload the account if you are so inclined.
Once you clear the bonus, cash-out the entire amount back to your Neteller or Firepay account.
If you reach a point where your bankroll eclipses the next bankroll tier (i.e. $100 up from starting bankroll of $50), simply move over to the top of that path and work down it, skipping any poker rooms where you already have an account.
As you sign up for poker rooms, you will occasionally receive reload offers for them. You should divert from the sign-up path to take advantage of any favorable reload bonus. Once you have completed the reload(s), come back to where you left the path and keep going.
Good luck!!!
