Poker site sign up questions

1. I see lots of offers of 100% sign up bonuses. Is that money I can then take out of my account at any time? Like what is to stop me signing up to a site I never intend to use and doubling up on my money?

2. Can I remove my initial sign up money and just play with the bonus?

3. How hard is it to sign up with a second account on a site at a later date? Like to get a rakeback bonus I missed the first time.

1. No it isn't . You will have to play a LOT, and the bonus will be released a little at a time.

2. No - see answer 1.

3. You can't do this without lying/cheating.

^^^ +1

Also worth mentioning, in relation to (3) - if (or rather when) they find out, you won't just have the second account closed. You could v easily lose everything you deposited. Don't do it.

I figured the answer would be no for each one, else it all seemed a little too good to be true.

I guess I will now do some research into the different sites and then embark on my quest to turn a tiny deposit into a million bucks.

Re: Poker site sign up questions

You would do better looking for good rakeback deals rather den sign up bonuses.

The benefits of a signup bonus stops as soon as the bonus is cleared or the promo period is over, also keep in mind thet some of theese bonuses are almost impossible to clear for a micro/smalstakes player without insane an amount of volume.

A rakeback deal alows you to benifit as long as you play at that site.
