Do many of you clear your bonus by playing micro limit tables and if so what kind of time are you spending a day playing. I know I can play a few houes at .05/.10 table get hardly any points or no where near any level to get my bonuses. I finally have decided that Im not really interested in clearing these bonuses as it seems I would be losing a lot of money before I actually clear any bonus and I love the (We only release it in $5 increments). ANd I can imagine how much money I would be losing playing $1/$2 cash games but about how many hours do yall play at each level to clear your bonuses

I multitable 10nl and though I clear bonuses pretty slowly, I am not too concerned about the bonuses just yet. I play 2-4 hours at a time 5 times a week. If you want to clear bonuses fast I think you need move way up in stakes or play heaps of hands. At 10nl the bonuses just help pad the rake we're paying.

Dont focus on clearing your bonuses, focus on playing solid poker. The bonuses will come over time, just multi table a few games and don't make decisions based on the chance that you could hit and get points.

with rush poker on full tilt i cleared my july bonus within 2 days. I usually play 25nl or 10nl...anything lower and you are just going to get frustrated with the calls people make, but you have a chance to make some decent money when they miss.

i also try to play heads up to try to clear bonuses. a lot of people in the micro stakes on full tilt are pretty bad

The only Bonus that clear in his time was in Stars, used the Double Up S&G´s. 5-10 tables in $2buyins, easy to get even in those, the win was the bonus.

I'm not doing anything special to clear my $100 bonus on Full Tilt.

I'm just playing like I normally would and treating it like, well..... a bonus.

:D

not bother with the bonusses,
just play your game as you are comfortible with.

bonus is just bonus and should not influence your game.

i got loads of bonusses but clear less than half of them .

its just an extra for 10-25nl players :)

Just play your games and consider the bonus money just extra. Chasing bonusses is a sure way to lose more than the bonus money.

Just play ur own game don't worry too much about the bonus. But im currently playing NL10 4-6 tables playing a few hours a day and i've allready cleared $22 of my $100 bonus. I'd say i've only played 3.5k hands at NL10 full ring.
