What is the catch?
You usually have to play a few hundred raked hands to get
your bonus. This goes for all online poker sites. The bonus
codes you use to get that extra cash will require you to play
hundreds of raked hands in order to receive the bonus. The
bigger the bonus the higher the amount of raked hands. These
poker rooms are really risking nothing by giving you a bonus
because the only way you get the bonus is by playing enough
hands to generate an equal or greater amount of profit for
the poker room. Some poker rooms take the bonus money out
of the affiliates check that referred you to the site. It
is a win-win situation for the poker site.
What are raked hands?
Raked hands are hands in which the poker room takes a small
portion of the pot. Some poker rooms only take rakes from
certain sized pots. Other poker rooms may count seeing the
flop as a raked hand, the turn as a raked hand, and the river
as a raked hand. Not all hands are raked hands. Keep in mind
that playing a few hundred raked hands with only $50 can be
tough. Especially if you are getting bad cards
