    Bonus Wh0ring Q..

    Hello there,

    I wanted to ask if you can confirm me that Poker bonus wh0ring is OK from the companies (that's what I read) and if anyone is doing it build up a bank or to withdraw it?

    Thanks!

    Just make sure you read the requirements ahead of time.

    Most sites release the bonus in small increments as you reach the bonus rake requirements, example Doyles Room releases $10 of bonus per 100 "qualified raked hands" -- pretty much participating in pots reaching a total rake of $100.

    All sites are different but you'll have to be at least a decent player to collect first time player deposit bonuses on poker sites.

    They are usually a long grind.

    Pokerbonuses are just a form of rakeback, if you really want to build a bankroll you should start looking at sportsbook bonuses. Higher expected value.

    Rakeback is mainly if you are interested to play for a long time and bonuses if you just want to grab the bonus and move on (or am I mistaken here?).

    But it seems like it can take a LONG time to grab the bonus and if you are not that good you can even loose your own money too :P Unless I missed something xD

    Download and read this PDF. It basically outlines bonus whoring and examines the various methods you go about evaluating deals.
    Beating The Rake PDF

    The basic whoring sites are
    http: //www.boogster.com
    http: //www.pokersavvy.com
    http: //www.pokersource.com
    http: //www.regalospoker.com

    Two good sites for comparing deals:
    http: //www.rakeaway.com
    http: //www.kickbackbonus.com

    For sportsbetting barring a deal with an affiliate to get a % of loss back SBR is the best kickback scheme I have come across. The caveat to that statement is it depends on how you use SBR. In some ways it is great but if you go about it wrong it can cost you money. I'm not going to stir the pot but suffice to stay your affiliate tag is worth more than you think.

    What I meant is that a pokerbonus is just a way to get back the money that you already payed. Bonus wh0ring usually refers to finding a bonus with positive expected value and use it. A pokerbonus expected value is dependent on your skill, which casino and sportsbonuses usually are not.
