I know ... TBH I was starting to cross my games over and wanted to up limits so I could keep a steady game NL25 would have done. PLaying like a NL4 player on NL100 does not go untoticed and playing NL100 on NL4 no one cares. If it was not for this thread think id of done it a while back rather than grind. So theres still a lession for the folk out there, play over your limits at your own discretion but dont be upset when it goes wrong. Best of luck to all you grinders...keep the thread alive.

As far as i remember the BRB is 83%RB and deposit bonus is also 83%RB so dont think it matters, RB alone seams the worse deal here as I dont think you can take it with bonus, but could be wrong John would be your best bet. No more posting in this thread predobar will rip my head off and any outhers who subscribe..

John has stated that he'll happily give anyone rakeback who clears the bonus or deposits some $$$

Yes but the site is tax related for me so I wont build a fortune on BBP. My regular tables run for the money, BBP run for the fun of it. I do it mostly for the challenge....fighting against variance to get out of the start hole. Now that the BBP roll is launched I don't know how far I will take it
UPDATE:
Played a "marathon" session where I had 2 BBP tables running too. They gave a really good profit ~5-6BI @ NL25.
But.....I also played a short 45 min session drunk with a couple of friends. We played über aggro and within 10-15 min we made 2-3 BI's and within 30 min we lost them again +3-4BI more It wasn't an ooops drunken session, I was only semidrunk and so was my friends, one of them wanted to play so I sacrificed BBP for the fun of it. He promised to win but it was sooted
I hate being lower than peak so I will probably grind a litlle bit tonight to get it back.

Another update Having a bad run on the $2 bountys stt, getting some really bad beats so tried a couple of cash sessions ............... so sat at the 2c 4c tables managed to make back most of what i lost on the $2 bountys ................ but have to say the play on these tables is really really loose for example raised to 46c with A,A and got called won the hand and next hand got A,A and raised the same got called again and won again...............now I wouldnt normally raise this big for such small stakes but usually about 14 to20 tops but these types of raises are being called by nearly all at the table in fact in one hand i had A,Q in the big blind everyone limped in I raised to 14 EVERYONE CALLED except the small blind who pushed all in for his last 34c so i pushed all in for $2 that cleared the lot and i was heads up against K,4 suited ............he hit a King but i lost no more on that hand. anyway now down to $46 and have 87 points but feeling good just not getting enough time to play more but still determined to complete this.
