Where do you find the $50 bonus for cashing in the top 18?

If you put "pokercast" in the search filter it should help.

Hey guys

came in the top 18 for the bonus earlier which I'm very grateful for

just wanted to know, if I don't earn the 350 VPPs within 90 days, does the money go from my account? Being a pathetic stakes player could take me a while to earn that many, will be a nice little target to aim for though

Any decent tips on a good way to grind out this many VPPs at the low stakes?

I have some good news for you. You get to keep the amount you won in the tournament. Later in the week (Wed-Thurs) you'll see a $50 bonus in your account. You have to earn 350 VPPs in 90 days to clear that.

Even playing at the lowest stakes you can clear it. Just play like 340ish 1.10$ SNGs. That should be fairly low variance, and be easy to play 4 at a time if you're not a serious multi-tabler.

Double or Nothings used to be a better way to go, but they dropped the VPPs awarded.

did you check pending bonuses. You don't have to clear some VPP's(tree fiddy I think) to release it, as with any PS bonus.

I may actually have a chance to play in the invitational this Sunday. So, how much time would I need to set aside for me to take this thing down?

approx 3 hours. it's a turbo to start, then levels doubles after the first 8 or so.

I've tried several times to find the invitational under the "Private" tab, but it's not there despite assurances that it is. Can you help?

You can only use this link for this week.

The tourney is 'hidden' under the Private tab.

Just now logging in. The tourney is gone? I registered on Friday, but now it's just not there?

EDIT: oh, it's already running and I am blinded out. Daylight Savings time FTW I guess
