Well the title says it all. I am playing Husngs on stars and i want to try bonus whoring. I was thinking about PKR - they have 30% rakeback and 125% deposit bonus. But i am unsure about traffic and software ( the whole 3D thing..). Does anyone have any experience? ( Or is there any better site for Husngs?) Thx for replies.

I've just started playing PRK (only for playmoney just now, highrollin'!) - the software's a bit annoying - you need to keep clicking on your cards to check them again and stuff like that.

Apparently the opponents are soft and I can imagine that being the case cause of the 3D software. HUSNG rake is pretty high, however - over 7% for the $6 games etc. Traffic when I checked it wasnt great but that was at like 2 am your time

The opponents will be fishier, but be aware that you won't be able to put in anywhere near the same amount of volume in on PKR as you can on Stars due to the traffic being way lower.

Traffic shouldn't be a major issue at the lower levels like $6. It's really when you get into $20/30 and beyond that sites like PokerStars, Ipoker and Merge really begin to show their superior traffic. And once you hit $100, PokerStars becomes by far the biggest volume advantage place to play.

I would also consider Ongame, Ipoker, IPN for playing low stakes husngs, they combine some decent traffic at lower levels, and in the case of Ipoker and IPN, lower rake (even considering bonuses/rakeback and/or VIP), with soft games.

What is total rb with first depo?

As far as I know all bonuses on PKR are deducted from the MGR before rakeback.

So say you get $800 in bonus dollars and rake $500 your return will look a little something like this.

Amount Cleared from Bonus (Roughly 25%, PKR have a few bonuses and I think it's changed again recently): $125
New Rake Figure: $375
30% Rakeback: $375 * .3 = $112.50
Total Return: $237.50 or 47.5%

The moral of the story for those who like to bonus whore, is to sign up to rooms where the deposit bonus isn't deducted.

Poker rooms tend to be a lot more savvy now and I think life for out and out bonus whores has become quite tough.

Hope this helps anyway,

Jamie

PKR is awful, no traffic above $1 stakes :/

Been there and tried it!

Dang.

I don't know for sure, but I wouldn't be suprised if the action was good for that kind of thing on IGT.

Anyone tried it?
