Anyone travel for poker promotions?

I'm curious what the best promos are and how to find out when big progressive bad beats are brewing.
Sometimes a casino will give out a freeroll in a tournament or cash after a certain amount of hours.
I kind of want to put in hours to get high hands and things like this so I don't get destroyed by the rake.
Anyone know what the best e.v. room is?

Ignore promotions and go where the whales are. Game quality is far more important than rake structure. If you go to any casino advertising lower rake or bonuses, you will likely end up in a room full of grinders. You maximize your hourly winrate by finding drunk whales with deep pockets and improving your game.
That said, big jackpots will attract whales.

The rake can be a factor esp. outside the US where you have places with huge rake but I agree with pinkmanns post for the most part. Maybe replace grinders with promo nits. If you think the rake is destroying you in live low-stakes unlimited holding thems you are likely not as good as you think you are and/or playing in the wrong games
