If you know the game then Omaha is a great way to build your point up. Either Omaha Hi/Lo or just Hi the game is a blast..... but do get your stratergy straight before you get to involved with it as its a very very VERY crule game if you dont understand it propperly. MAKE SURE YOU KNOW THE RULES.....defo that you "have to use 2 cards from your hand" that catch's a lot of new players out. A lot of people find the DoNs are a great way to build the points and clear bonuses....(but i dont like them) Anyway good luck
------------ Oh yeah and please dont try and go up the levels to get extra points....its oftern a very costly mistake. Use solid bankroll managment ...no good getting your bonus cleared just to find you have only a few $$ left.

I'm afraid you'll have to quit cash games and stick to sitngos to start earning points quicker if you multi table a lot... if not you'll take ages at those cash games... that's my opinion.

I would suggest Double or nothing SNGs: if you like them and get yourself a solid strategy youo can easily multitable (as the correct strategy IMHO is to be extremely tight) and make points and money remember always to respect Bankroll management good luck

I dont think points come to easy on PP, so play for money . When it gets a bit closer to the date, then thats when you should start multi tabling like mad. By then hopefuly you earnd a little $ and the points should come a little quicker.

The DoNs at Party Poker start at $5 stakes level and as you get $50 upfront for the NDB there to play then it's gonna be a bad idea to start playing them... as you said "always to respect Bankroll Management"

I'd go for the micro double or nothing SnGs. You can fire up, say, 10 sngs and just wait it out for the big hands while the other guys just bust out on stupid hands. Happens a lot...you can get a decent win rate and slowly build up your bankroll while clearing the bouns.

Posted by beth86: cheers for the info,
but i only got $25 bonus got to earn 150 points to get the other cash
It is doable in nl he cashtables also, at first you just need to do a lot of grinding in lower limits. Just focus and play your game, at first dont think about the points you need to collect, because that does not help you lol.
I did recently a huge climb in cashgames in one new poker site im playing about a little over 3 weeks I think for now and Ive got there close to 1900 points witch is even harder or equal to earn as in Party Poker.
Will post you a 2 screenshots to encourage you a little

i am quite shore about the crule fact that less than 10 players out of 200 do succeed in accomplishing the releasing requirements of this peticular NDB! IN FACT I AM 101% CERTAIN REGARDING THIS MATTER

So true, but if you manage to win about $80-100 from freerolls and SnGs then u don't need to worry much about clearing it... cause even if the time comes and you've not collected the 150pp, you're just gonna lose the starting $25... leaving you with a pretty decent bankroll to go on, eh? I think the starting NDB is more of a helper in creating a Real Money account on PartyPoker without depositing, and keep your pace at your favorite playing level from that point on...
