I'm about to embark on one of those new account bonus offers that I reckon will require me to play 30K+ hands over 60 days.

Notwithstanding the arguably greater skill set required the shorter handed the game, which format is best in terms of maximising loyalty points based on rake earned? I appreciate I'd also have to factor in the fact that I can only single table HU games, whereas I'm comfortable 3-tabling 6 Max and probably 5/6-tabling FR.

I know I should be able to calculate this, but tbh it's really hot and humid where I am and I feel really lethargic

Remember, although the bonus is enticing, what you're asking is "What is the quickest way to pay the most rake?"

Play the games you're best at, and you'll end up with the most money.

Also, the site and network plays a big role in this. Different networks calculate their points in different ways and different skins within each network may also calculate the bonuses differently.

Both replies valid, and I ought to have stated in my OP that I am seeking the additional rewards that accompany clearing the bonus, namely a £100 live tourney entry and 2x1 hour coaching sessions...

For clarification, the bonus offer is redeemed in multiples of $50 for every 3000 points gained, with 10 points accrued for every $1 rake earned...

Should have stated my intention was to either play 50PLO HU or 100PLO 6Max or Full Ring, and I have occasionally managed to achieve the sort of volume required here before...

Accepting that a bonus is no good if playing beyond my bankroll or stamina limitations, I expect it is obvious to some 2+2ers, which way is the best to go to clear the bonus..
