PokerStars Sunday Million

I am sure that if you have been playing poker for a while you must have heard of the PokerStars Sunday Million tournament. This tournament is played every sunday and have a buy in of $200+15. Many of us cant afford to pay the $215 just to play a single tournament a week but there are a couple of other ways for you to get to this tournament for a cheaper price.

You can qualify to this tournament in one of the many satellites that are running every week. The buy ins for these satellites start from $1, or you can even quilify by using some of the frequent player points that you have earned by plaing at PokerStars.

If you do not yet have an account here i suggest you use the PokerStars Marketing Code PAWSUB465 when creating your account. This will give you a $50
poker bonus when you make your first deposit. You will also be invited to play in freerolls that are restricted to players using this marketing code.

Full Tilt Poker - The Sunday Brawl

A while ago Full Tilt Poker introduced a new tournament called The Sunday Brawl. This poker tournament has a really different payout schedule than other tournament and thats what makes it so much fun to play in it.

Let me tell you what makes it so special...
You pay a buy in of $240+16 to enter this tournament. If you think this is too much to pay for a tournament i suggest you try qualifiying through one of the many satellites for this event.
Ot of these $240 Full Tilt will take $40 and put in a special "Bounty prize pool". Every time you knock another player out of the tournament you will get $40 credited to your account instantly. So this is not like the regular bounty tournaments where only a few players have a bounty on their head. In the Sunday Brawl every single player has a $40 bounty on their head so it really pays of for you to knock out other players. And of course the remaining $200 will be added to the regular prize pool so there is a decent amount to be won in the tournament as well.

I think this is a really fun tournament to play in because of the structure they have made.

If you do not have an account here yet i would suggest you create one with the Full Tilt Poker referral code EASYTILT. This code will give you the start that you need with a $600 bonus on your first deposit.

How To Clear a Poker Bonus

Before you even start playing Poker you should always look for the best possible poker bonus. The best bonus is not always the one with the highest amount of dollars offered. You also have to check at what rate the bonus is clearing and how it is released.

If you for example get a $1000 bonus but have to generate 100 000 player points within 30 days in order to clear it you might as well play without any bonus at all since most players have no chance of clearing that bonus. In this case you would have been better of playing with rakeback. But that is a whole other story.

If we look at the Cake Poker bonus for exanple. Here you get a 100% bonus up to $500 on your first deposit. The good thing about this bonus is that it is released in increments of $10. So even if you dont manage to clear the full bonus amount you will still get something. The more you play, the more of these $10 bonuses you will receive.

Hopefully this will help some of you out there to think a bit extra and check the details of the poker bonus before you sign up and start playing.

Why play poker with Rakeback?

The biggest reason why you should be playing with Poker Rakeback is that you will be getting a percentage of the rake that you pay to the poker rooms back to your account every month. So instead of the poker room keeping all of the rake you generate the pay you back for example 33% of your rake during the month which is the case if you are playing with Cake Poker Rakeback for example. All you need to do in order to get rakeback at Cake Poker is to use the signup code 33BACK when you create your account. After you have done that you will automatically get 33% of the rake you pay every month back to your poker account. So if you are generating $1000 in rake during a month for example you will be getting $333 back to your account at the start of the next month. If you are playing without rakeback you will get $0 back and the poker room will keep all of the rake that you generate.

Once you have created an account at a poker room you can not create a second account so make sure that you create an account that will give you rakeback from the beginning.

Most of the poker rooms that offer rakeback will also let you clear the intial Poker Bonus at the same time as you are earning rakeback.

Poker Bonus and Rakeback

It is not always easy to find a good Poker Bonus that will suit your needs perfectly. Some bonuses are have really hard play through requirements and most of the times you will just end up without getting any bonus.

Thats you it is a great idea to combine Poker Rakeback with a poker bonus and then you have all bases covered. If you do not manage to clear the bonus amount you will still get paid your rakeback. In this way you will make sure that you never walk away empty handed.

A good example of a bonus that is a bit harder to clear is the Full Tilt Poker bonus. When you enter the bonus code EASYTILT you will get a $600 bonus that is fairly difficult to clear.

An example of a poker bonus that is easy to clear is the PokerStars Marketing Bonus. When you sign up using the Marketing code PAWSUB465 you will get a $50 bonus when you make your first deposit. This bonus is very easy to clear, especially if you are a tournament player.
