Welcome Back Bonuses

If we didn't have bonuses, we wouldn't have had anybody working for us.
-Drexel Burnham Lambert spokesperson


Yesterday, I was wondering where to go to play poker while I wait for my casino bonus cash out. There were no bonuses to be had and I had almost pulled the trigger on going to UB when I get this email from Poker Room with a reload bonus of 30% up to $300. Yahoo! Back in business.

Not an hour later a get an email from Absolute Poker giving a 25% reload on Wednesday (Today) only. So now I have a lot of bonus to work off and 60 days to do it!

Got back to back emails from Starluck Casino saying they are reviewing my cashout and then they are processing, not sure what everyone was saying.....2 hours it was in my Neteller account!

Intertops also has a reload going but haven't signed up the first time yet! Was going to, got side tracked, went to Starluck instead and now to busy!

Have to give props to Ship It Poker that is great stuff that Matt Dean, Lloyd McGuire and Taylor Caby are writting over there. I even peeped in on Taylor playing heads up Limit $3/$6 at Ultimate Bet the other night. Heads up is such a different game! Hyper aggressive!

Guess I have a lot of poker to play and will have to push the next casino bonus back some but will try to get to it next week.

Till Next Time!

'Atta way! Bonuses are such a beautiful, beautiful thing, and yet so few of us truly understand how critically important they are for building your 'roll and advancing up the ladder. Are the games on PokerRoom any good?

The bonus is a little slow...you get 1 point for every $1 raked and 1/2 point for every rake .50 to a $1. 7 points equal $1 bonus. You just need to be sitting to get points.

I find the games to be tight passive. Very beatable. Not hard to find a game in the $1/$2 - $2/$4 range.

Thanks for comment!
