Apparently, this is hand history night...

After I busted out of a $6 turbo 45 player SNG in 16th, I decided to gather some FPPs at Stars. When I made my deposit for the 45 SNG Challenge, I got a 20% deposit bonus so I figured I would play some $25 NLHE ring to work it off.

I did well. I basically doubled my buy-in on 2 hands. Here they are:

On this one, I played with perfection, er, I totally sucked out. But, it was his fault. He slow played me and got smoked.

On this one, the other big stack had been playing tight but I had to call his pre-flop raise and see what happened. From there, I only tested him after the flop with the raise. From there, I thought I was ahead but didn't want to get too aggressive with TPTK. I guess I could have taken more.

Soooooo, I had a good session for me. I only gathered like 6 FPPs but I made back my entry fee for the 45 SNG Challenge, which is good because I don't have a chance in that one.

Drew - I just asked this question on my site as well...

How hard is it to clear the reload bonus at PokerStars? How many FPPs do you need to earn per dollar of bonus? And how many FPPs do you get for a raked hand?

Oh - one last question since I can't access Bonus Whores or any other site that discusses bonuses: How long would I have to clear the reload bonus?

I had to earn 100 for a $20 bonus for 5 FPPs per dollar. I don't remember what the timeframe was. I know that the Party money that they gave me ($35) for free yesterday has to be cleared in about 2 weeks, but I cleared 100 of the 350 (10/dollar on party) last night while playing on Stars at the same time.

I was up about $7 on Party too. Good way to start a bankroll on there I guess. Free money, cool beans.
