Diary of an I-Poker Reg

Having won the €2,000 Dirty Dozen SnG Jackpot my bankroll across a few I-Poker skins is pretty comfortable. I'd be rolled for €10 games but not €20 but it's the latter where I really want to be. I have accounts on PaddyPower, Betfair (30% rakeback) but it's William Hill I play a lot on. I think I've discovered a way to make more money in value back than you actually pay in rake each month. It does however mean playing a certain amount of games and raking a certain amount each month to get full value. William Hill have some decent promotions. You have to rake 1,000 player points per fortnight and you also need a Betfair or betdaq account to maximise your profit. For 1k in points you get: £15 free bet. I use this site to find and lay off the £15 bet giving me a risk free bet. From this I can achieve roughly £12 clear profit. Next comes a €7 workable bonus. This will only come into effect in your 2nd month but free money is free money. Take whatever you can from the site. The Gift Treat Final is one of the best value games on the site. I've valued the buy in to be worth €11. Combined with low numbers it requires 35 player points per day over 10 days. This is equivalent to 4 x Dirty Dozen Jackpot SnGs which really isn't that much volume. The Free bet freeroll is another gem. I actually improved this unintentionally by lowering the numbers when I told WH I was just transfering fuinds between my sportsbook and poker site to play the game. They made it a requirement that you had to earn 10 player points also but this cut the field by 2/3rds. Again any money won can be used for matched betting. I've valued this freeroll as a €2.50 buy in. The Facebook freeroll is hit and miss whether you play it. I still play it but I've calculated it's only worth 50c of value. It's whale filled and easy to cash if you can avoid the bad beats. It pays out in tournament tickets but again these have value. If you've no money, this is one of the better freerolls out there. The €150 Club Status freeroll isn't great value but if your playing the site, take what you can from it. I've valued it as a 50c buy in. Monthly Madness is a great promo. I've valued it as a combined promotion of €15 worth of buy ins per month. Prizes are paid out in tourney tickets but as I stated above these tickets have value. Monthly special is tied to the Monthly Madness and has a value of €2. The combined value of all of these promotions is around €63. If you pay €58 in rake you can get all this. I haven't included rake races as you are not generating enough points to make any leaderboard but you should also check out WH's Facebook and Twitter as they give away a lot of free tickets for participating. It all mounts up. I play WH to achieve this then move to PaddyPower and Betfair and avail of certain promotions they run. I've a 30% rakeback deal on Betfair but I think there is more value looking elsewhere. I'll take up a Pokerstrategy offer for an I-Poker skin some time in the future and take up the start up bonus. Of all forms of gambling, poker is the only one that rewards you for being as winner &diams;

Break even week but highly profitable month (Not as good as July and August).

I'm not table selecting but I feel table selection is vital. There's one reg who I think is a bot, I've reported him but I don't expect any results, unlike Pokerstars where I've been right on every occasion.
