Bonus hitting for fun and profit (small stakes) - Page 5

yeh i have - still waiting!! aarrrgghhh
even though i must say i made a bad call to suss them out - with AJ i raised to 40 and was raised to 2 dollars by this guy who went all in. i called! bad call - but got the ace on the flop and won the hand - he has Q9o - and then i noticed some other guy called too lol - and i beat him too so... that was a nice start...

i hope i didn't need to deposit 100 otherwise i will be kicking myself!!! i only deposited 75

also - whats the story when you load a table and it says loading and then just closes down?

How much did you deposit ?
Also, is it advisable to play micro limits to clear the bonus ?

Do you get the martinspoker bonus 90days after deposit, or 90days after clearing the bonus?

I deposited 50, and got the 100 pending bonus right away :D
Now with only 50, what do you guys recomend me to do ?
Wich stakes, and can you tell me aprox, how much time will I take me to clear the bonus ?

EDIT : where can I see how many valid raked hands i have played ?

Verbloten : for the table loading, just try again lol.
Durandal : after deposit
Markonio : NL10 should do the trick. Depends on how many tables you play, and if it's full ring or SH, but something like 10 hours to clear it sounds reasonable. You can mail support or ask live support (when it works haha) for your raked hands. The first 30$ will arrive automagically, the last 70$ may require you quit a table or exit the software to appear once you've reached the 500 hands.

NL 10 huh.

That is the NL 0.05/0.10 tables right ?

And Multitabling, My BR in this site is only 50, 2-3 tables maybe ?

Damn, their support suck.

Live help doesen`t work, and when I try to email them, I get an instant answer saying ther`s an error = /

MarKonio i did the same, i deposited just 50$ there and played at start 2 tables of NL10. then i just 4 tabled the 005 010 tables.i must say this site is a goldmine, players there are so bad, that i made 10 buyins during the 2 days i needed to clear the bonus!

It coulda gone the other way too. When people suck that bad, there will be MANY suckouts.

Either way, both times I did it I played 4x .5/.10 NL with a $50 deposit and never felt like there was a danger in going broke

damn, can`t email this guys.

I have tried alot of times and i get an autoresponse with some error.

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at mail_gib.stenodoc.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

<net@pokerresponse.com>:
Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. vpopmail (#5.1.1)

etc etc

Haha guys - this site is really bad - the support is woeful!! They have a talk live to customer service option which doesn't work and yes when you email you get failed to deliver messages. I have sent 5 emails - no response. I finally have a response this morning to my first email about not getting my pending bonus and they said:

On some occasions it can happen that the software does not recognize your first deposit in relation to your pending deposit bonus.

However, I can ensure you that you can apply for the following raked hands bonus:

- $30 for 100 raked hands
- $70 for 500 raked hands

Unfortunately it is for our customers not possible to see their raked ahnds total themselves. Please contact by us email, live chat or telephone and we are more than happy to inform you about your raked hands total.

So now i don't even know if i for some reason need to "apply" for it - or whether their english is just so bad that they actually mean i am eligible for it?

I think it means you can clear it anyway.

what site is it Markonio ? The support mail for casino.net should be poker@casino.net
I've emailed them in the past and it worked (though they're not the fastest lol). You could also try casinonet@pokerresponse.com

And the live chat works sometimes, but I don't know when lol

its hypocritical for me to say this but just play and the bonus will show up. I also emailed them and never got a response. The bonus will show up

I will do that.

I just wanted to see what my progres was after 3 hours of play.

How long did it take you mate? Cause if i haven't done 100 hands i must have done like 95 - and i still haven't seen any of the bonus... i don't trust these sites! specially ones that never answer your emails!

But anyway - great site for softness!!! I played a sit and go earlier and won it - first time out - they were pretty soft - easier than pokerstars for sure. I can't tell you how many times i will raise PF with AK, get bet into on the flop (where i miss) and check to the river only to be bet at again (about 1/10th the pot size). Insta call and always win - it's their way of bluffing one more time on the river!

well i got the first $30 bonus after 450 hands, only 100 were raked (too low I think), i will go for the $70 now :D

The casino.net bonus will just show up on your account once you're done. Don't sweat about it, just focus on your game -_-b

6 table nl 10 will take you about 8 hours


edit: BTW the sportingbet thing doesnt work anymore at all. I just tried it and there is no pending bonus in my account
