Well I got my mansion bonus 2 days ago. Currently I have almost tripled the up front $50, collected over 600 points towards the first $10 bonus release, and have found a comfortable groove 4 tabling the nl .05/.10 tables.
I have until January to clear the $100 bonus that requires 10,000 points. So my goal is to try and clear the bonus before I go back to university in September. I hope to continue my solid play and possibly be playing .25/.50 by this point.
I know this will be a challenge that will require discipline and dedication. So good luck to all my fellow players and I will let you know how it goes.

Full ring and the low limits are pretty fishy on mansion from what I have seen. I average between 250-300 points a day at these limits. I figure if I can continue to build and move up the limits I should have no problem maintaining this average or higher.

You get a certain extra %age points boost per month depending on what vip level you reach. The pro level takes 2000 points to reach. If you get 2000 points for the month you get a 50% points boost applied after the month.
I don't know if this boost is applied to the bonus offer. I will probably write support to find out because if I keep up my play I may actually reach elite level in a month (8000 points) and that would get me a 150% point boost which would be more than enough to clear the bonus.
Also if you manage to maintain your vip level for 3 months they will give you extra points too.

10000 points is a might effort if you can doit,some good bankroll management,some skills,and a little luck and you can make it.good luck with your mission.
10.000 points are a lot. But if you continue to make 300 points a day it will be double. Its really a lot i think whitout a big holy lucj they cant reach it, without another deposit...thats my opinion

I should have the first 1,000 points by the end of the day. This will put me 10% of the way there in the first 4 days.
Hit a little bit of a downswing at about $120, but I seem to have pulled through it and have leveled out again at 105, after having been down to 90 at one point. I am still 4 tabling $.05/.10 nl and yes I know my roll is still a little low for this limit but I am comfortable here and the buy in is 5% of my total bankroll. I will and did move down a limit when my total was below $100.
My goal for the moment is to be at $150 by the end of the weekend and I should be somewhere around 1500 points by that point. To achieve this I need an increase of $35+$10 for the first bonus release.
Good luck all ad I will update on Sunday evening with my progress.

well done, you have already trippled up your initial 50$, you can shift limits if you feel comfortable at them, just follow strict bankroll management and you'll get 10,000 points you need.

trippled up de $50? very well done... i'm new around here, and just started my journey on Mansion poker as well.. i'm 100 point away from my first $10, and i've just noticed that on the "Bonuses" menu in the "My account" screen, there's nothing about this bonus information, is that right? you guys got the bonus anyway?

the boost is not applied to clear the bonus, to clear bonus you have to "rake" those 10.000 points, I saw it in my account on mansion so I'm sure.
