what would you say the quickest way is to clear a poker bonus with relatively low risk?

SNGs and MTTs are high variance, so possibly not the best option?

Micro stakes cash would require a ridiculous amount of tables and/or hours, am I correct?

High stakes cash is full of amazing players and rake is capped at the same level as about 50NL, am I correct?

So does that just leave small stakes no limit cash games as the best way to clear a bonus, assuming you're at least a break even player? Or are there better ways of clearing it?

not really,if you are good at the game then you will be in plenty of biggish pots but rarely doing worse than chopping those pots.

I think the safest way to clear a FDB, with low varince is NL Holdem (9max).

But i am not 100% sure, but 9max NL holdem is low varaince

Do any of you know if bonus hustling is still a reasonable option for someone with very little cash to build a roll? This is how I started out in 2005ish, and just want to know if it's still a viable strategy, since I'm explaining how to do it to a buddy. No clue whether it's still viable in 2013, though, especially in the US - are there enough small sites available that pay out reliably to make this a reasonable way to build a small roll? (not sure if Interpoker, William Hill, etc, still exist - I assume they haven't for years!). Any good threads on bonus whoring?
