Posted by Administrator: T&C's updated (fixed): "1,000 PKR points from instant deposit bonus + 1,500 PKR points to qualify for gift = 2,500 PKR points in total required to qualify for your gift."
just FYI: the first 1,000pts are just what PKR gives you - anyone signing up to PKR will get 1,000 PKR pts. They don't count towards bonuses or rakeback obviously. Same as any poker room - only points earned through playing real cash games will count towards clearing a bonus / etc.
So the 1,500 required to get the bonus paid I would imagine is completely separate. Because if you say 2,500 total, it's not entirely correct - since a player might opt to spend the 1,000pts straight away, or spend the 1,500 along the way as they earn them.. The important thing is, that you EARN 1,500pts through rake/fees: which is $15.00 in rake, which is pretty awesome considering you get $50.00 return + contribute towards your first deposit bonus.
edit: hope I'm not wrong here / or just confusing the issue. But that would be my understanding of the new terms you have posted.

you know what, when i first started at PKR i won a points breakthough tournament with the 1000 free points and had 6000 points, i then requested my 5000 mobpoints and got them, was a bit suprised but it worked . although i did play quite a bit for a few days. failing that it would ony take a day or two at the action tables all in or folding 10/25c blinds for 1.25 a time to clear them points .

hey admin is there any deadline on when those 1500 pkr points must be earned...i read that 60 days is how long will the bonus be active...does this also apply to 5000 mobpoints gift from the bonus?

As long as the offer is active, that's usually how long you have to clear the points for the 5000 MobPoints bonus. Once an offer is removed, we try very hard to keep honor gift requests made before the end, so they still have time to clear the points and request their gift even after the offer is gone.

This looks really like a nice deal to mobsters, especially with the additional gift offer of 5000 points. Unfortunately I already have an account at PKR, otherwise I would have loved to amke an account through BRM.

OK...I had a rant earlier on, but really folks; PKR is a really cool site. Play it in PKR LITE and its almost like any iother site, but still has a certain coolness to iot that makes it feel different. There are some great tourneys and the Mega Deal is a very GENUINE and worth while offer from which you can make loads of money if you polay your bonuses right. For $10 its not bad....but beware, there used to be a $2.50 charge for any deposit less than $25 so read the small print and depoist $25 if you can! THere are also some great Mobsters there already like Taking Drugs! See you all there.

yeah have to agree with damosk and a few other mobsters- this really looks like a mega +EV offer, here's the plain facts: min deposit is $10- pkr takes $1 charge because deposit is less than $25. this leaves you with $9. PKR gives you $6 worth Minimasters ticket, $10 cash (with some play-through before cashout), $12 ticket for use to any sng/mtt, 100% deposit bonus cleared at usual rate and a bunch of tickets to $300 gtd freerolls, plus 1 ticket to $1000 gtd freeroll....add to this 5000 mobpoints after making 1500 pkr points (by that tie you will clear the deposit bonus for extra $10 + meet all play-through requirements). That's real MEGA offer imo.

I think the offer gets even better if you decide to deposit a bit more than the min 10 dollars asked, after all you have a 100% first deposit bonus in there
It's also good that the offer will be available for those that took it even if it will be removed from the site.
