offshore bonus question

drpugilist · Mar 6, 2015

so, ive never made a bet online before. i decided to put some money in a place to play some online poker with my friends. i deposited 200 dollars to a place that offers a "50% Bonus Bet bonus up to 250 dollars". i assume at some point i should receive 100 dollars at some pt right? if so, when do i get it? after so many hours of play?

any info or help on how these bonuses work would be appreciated. thanks.

Poker bonuses work totally different than sportsbook bonuses.

With poker, typically you have to rake "x" amount to earn "x" amount of your bonus. It doesn't matter how long you play, but how much you pay in rake.

Without knowing the specifics it would be conjecture at this point to tell you how much you need to pay in rake or be part of a raked hand to earn your bonus.

It's always best to read the T&C of the bonus first before jumping in. As others have said, e-mail their support to get the details.
