Hi,
i´ve been starting three month ago at bigbetpoker the bankrollbuilder with $10 and have now a bankroll of about $180 and 980 points. So far, so good! Now i wanted to know if they have some Cash Bonuses. Cause i like the software, the players and with some nice bonuses i would play a lot more there (the most time i play at fulltilt and partypoker). But i found this: 100.000 points for $100 cash! I have to play 20.000 sngs with a buy in of $5.50 and i will get $100? so i pay a rake of $10.000 and i will get $100? Thats a joke right?! Or did i calculate wrong?! If not - its defenitley the sickest bonus i´ve ever seen!

Actually you would be better off not taking the bonus and depositing yourself. you would be far better off..
These no deposit bonuses are loaded up so heavily you wouldnt ever hope to make serious money from them.
You are better off depositing and taking a rakeback deal

From what I understand from reading the BigBetPoker threads is that in this room, you can do both. Three offers actually, take the NDB, clear that, then clear the deposit bonus, THEN take rakeback. That's what was being offered here before, I assume offer stil stands ?

Ofc it should be alright if BBP would be the only one existing Poker Room in the world... but it is not. When you look for other Rooms u see the bonus offers are much better so why should u be happy about something like that?

Ok! To all "better a bonus like this, than no bonus mimimi" retards: take fulltilt; you pay $10.000 rake and get 27% rakeback = $2.700 further more you got easy the gold status at ironman, wich brings $xxxx more in bonus. Than you got the year end bonus wich brings you about $xxxx. So all over you got (with a very narrow calculation) $4.000 in one year just by bonuses! And this doesn´t includes promotions like "the Biggeest Bonus Ever" and so on..
For sure i will finish the Bankrollbuilder and before i can cash out, i have to make a deposit. So i will take the first deposit bonus and clear it too. And than? Hmmm...let me think about it...$4.000 at fulltilt? Or $100 at Bigbetpoker? Where would you play?!
I like BBP, no question. But after clearing the Bankrollbuilder and the FDB, there would be no reason for me to stay there.

I haven't done the math, and to be honest I didn't bother to request the bonus. I thought I'd blow 10$ too fast too easily. But reading this post I see it may actually be worthwhile...

By the way you put it, it really looks a very sick bonus. But you shouldnt make the counting through the number of SnG's. Although many of us, like me, prefer to play that type of game, bonus are made for those who play a lot of ring, thats why i always end up giving up of geting them.
Sick, of course. By the way better sick than nothing and you were able to earn 170 , so the worst has been gone: you're on the right way to be a millionaire !
