Not very easy at all.

Games are usually fairly loose though.

If you are first or second one at a table though, it is a bit quicker, but is still more than 10X.

Like how Party reloads are 7X bonus amount in raked hands.

The difference is, on UB there's no time limit on clearing the bonus. You could clear half of it, come back 6 months later, and have the rest left to clear.

Their software is very fast - probably due to their no-frills graphics. Their tourney blind structures are good, and best of all, they have 2-7 Triple Draw.

Yeah, I forgot to mention their bonus doesn't expire, so if you are running dry on bonuses, you could always come back to this one and Stars (if you got one there too).

Now, keep in mind, the only points used to clear the bonus dollars are the ones ON raked hands when you are sitting, and not on the sitngos, hourly point you get for being at a table, etc.

This is exactly what I have done. I play tourneys at UB (love their blind structure), and occasionally I play Triple Draw, Pineapple, etc for fun. I don't play HE cash games there though, because I prefer other sites.
