I have an account at Mybet on the Ipoker network,I received the no deposit bonus from BRM a few months ago.The terms of the bonus are quite strict,max buyin for tournaments is $2,no rebuy tournaments,have to rake $100 to lift restrictions and on cash tables you can play storm or 2c/4c and no heads up. I have got over $50 and on this site I have been playing turbo SnGs,DYMs and the occasional twister tournament but the variance in those mean that it is quite difficult to get into bankroll trouble if you play decent poker. I have been playing poker for a while now and I tend to do OK but the problem is I do not have the time to play 100s of low stakes SnGs daily so how do I clear the $100 rake requirements?I think I can just deposit to lift most of the restrictions but I have got stubborn now and want to try and do it the hard way!! Usually I don't play cash but today I decided to look at the cash tables but to my surprise I had the choice of only 3 tables,I realised that half seemed to be playing all 3 tables so probably regs and the others probably new/inexperienced.The table dynamics seemed to be 1 or 2 aggro players and the rest fairly tight/passive/poor. One thing I should say is cash tables are in Euros so $50=€37 So a couple of questions for you cash playing guys; 1- Is $50/€37 enough to be playing on these tables? 2- What strategy would you play against the regs at the table? 3- Should I only play one table? 4- Any other tips? 5- Have you cleared this bonus?
Quite a long post I know but any thoughts on the subject would be appreciated as I am starting to get bored with turbo tournaments.Thanks.

The thing that really matters is, if there is a time limit to clear the bonus. If there is not, then you dont want to rush yourself to a higher level, one that you dont feel comfortable enough of playing. At least thats what im getting of your post
