I had a look here http://www.paddypowerpoker.com/fc_paddypoints.php

and imo the bonus seems pretty tough to clear. Anybody tried it? Shady site? Problems with withdrawing money?

EDIT: I would be 3tabling 50nl

There's another thread on PaddyPower a bit further down that you might want to check.

I haven't done PaddyPower but since it's on the iPoker network it should have good traffic and pretty fishy tables at the lower limits. I cleared the Titan bonus (1250 points) in a reasonable time mostly on the NL20 and NL50 tables, so you shouldn't have a hard time of it on three NL50 tables.

Thanks for the quick reply

I'm planning on doing 4 of the bonuses (everest, pokerroom, titan, paddy?)

I'll report back to the thank you thread if everything goes ok

I just cleared the 1300 points 10 minutes ago. I played only the $10 SNGs. It works out to be 87 SNGs at this level. Very easy to clear if you multi table (I played 5 or 6 at a time).

The site is very soft and the software is better than most sites I've played at.

When you deposit they don't have a problem taking your money, but they freeze your account until you send them alot of personal information. Pretty shady IMO and I'm getting my money off the site ASAP.

Also, I entered the code for their cash bonus and I didn't get a cent.

heh heh... I'd stay away too. Sounds Shady enough...

Best you stick to the more reputable sites like Titan and Everest. They've been around a long time.
Apparently Pokerroom's having a little trouble with their support as well as with players playing 86 $1 SnG - *see post "WARNING: POKERROOM.." But there are other rooms on the Ongame platform if you're still keen on moving along that path.

I won't play on any site that isn't ongame. I win rate per 100,000 hands compared to all other sites is off the hook.

I saw the PokerRoom thread and am shocked they would do this. Has anyone from PokerRoom replied to this thread, I can't seem to find it. There must of been something else that happened to raise suspicion on his player account.

In your opinion what is the best book deal site here? I am new to this forum but see lots of value in it. What is the easiest bonus to clear and get free books? What kind of bonuses do you look for when signing up at a new site?

I'd be very surprised if there's anything shady about PaddyPower's poker site.

In the UK they have an excellent reputation as bookmakers.

Just my $0.02

I'd also be very surprised if there's a site where it's easier to clear the books bonus than Everest. Unless things have changed since I did the bonus there, all you have to do is open an account and deposit. No minimum hand requirement IIRC.

I'm pretty sure you have to play at least one hand on everest to clear the bonus.

Very easy. It took me 2 days to play it through, 10$-50$ sit&go's. Best way to clear it because you make 15 points for each tournament rakedollar, compared to ring game's 8 points per rakedollar.

+you get 10$ bonus after 800 points.

Its not a shady site. iPoker has the 3rd best software, some of the best customer support, and some of the softest low limit games.
