PartyPoker has a reload bonus this week, so I’ll give you the quick rundown on how I collect bonus money. The code is BONUSAPR and it’s 20% up to $100 so you’ll need $500 if you want to collect the maximum. You can deposit using that reload code any time until  midnight of April 27th and frankly you would be crazy not to. They’re giving money away!

You will need to play seven times as many hands as you have bonus dollars within seven days of your reload, so make sure you will have some time to play. You can deposit less than the maximum if you aren't sure you'll have enough time to get the hands played within a week. You can even take money out of your Party account today and put it back in tomorrow. I do it all the time and as long as you use the code you still get the bonus, but you can only use each code once. 

You should be able to collect the $100 in bonus money in a single day playing three tables of $25 buy-in No Limit Hold Em. I usually get about 50 raked hands per hour per table, so if I do the math… err… carry the two… ummm… you should be able to do it in less than four hours. Stay tight as a drum when you’re playing that many tables unless you’re really used to it. You can actually fold every hand if you like, you’ll still make a significant profit on the bonus.

In the Party lobby you can click "my account / go to my account (website)" and click on Bonus Account Details to see how many more hands you need to play and the date you need to play them by.

Don’t get sucked in by all the reload offers around, a lot of sites dish out the bonus dollars so slowly that it takes forever to collect them and they simply aren’t worth it. If you already play at a site like UltimateBet then by all means take them up on their reload bonuses, but they come in so slowly that I wouldn’t waste time on them if you don’t usually play there. I’ll try to let you know whenever a worthwhile bonus pops up.

If you happen to play Pot Limit Omaha8 fairly well you can play Omaha instead of Hold Em and you’ll collect that bonus money at an even faster rate because almost every hand is raked at a PL Omaha8 table.

I’ll see you at the tables on Party in the next few days. Look me up any time, I play under Mr_Fox and I’m always looking for company while I’m racking up the hands for that bonus money.

See you at the final table,
Fox
