If this is the first time you have signed up for a poker room then you will be glad to hear that you will receive a sign-up bonus from every single poker room. The size of the bonus you receive will be solely reflective of the poker room you decide to play in. Some poker rooms have really large bonuses for players that are stretched out over multiple deposits, whereas other poker rooms will offer a one-time match bonus.

One thing that you need to know is that you won’t receive your bonus money instantly into your account. It’s typically credited to your account in $5/$10 intervals as you earn enough player points in your account from playing poker. Below I’m going to share some tips with you on how to clear bonuses in your poker account.

The best way to clear a bonus is by multi-tabling micro limit poker tables as you will be able to earn a lot of player points quickly. The micro limit games will allow you to play for pennies and the competition is also really weak. You should be able to win a small amount of money while you’re working on clearing your bonus at these tables.

One misconception that a lot of poker players have is that they believe playing a high stakes tables is going to help them clear there bonus. This is the worst thing to do because you will be risking your starting bankroll. For instance, if you deposit $300 and you begin playing on a $1/$2 table, you could lose your money within minutes potentially.

If you don’t want to multi-table the low limit tables then the best thing to do is just play the limits that your bankroll allows. This way you don’t even need to think about your bonus and before you know it you will have your money credited to your account.

You will be able to receive multiple bonuses from different poker rooms as long as it’s the first time you’re joining that poker room. A lot of new poker players will join multiple poker rooms so that they can clear the bonuses and earn a fair sized bankroll. Once they’re done clearing the bonuses they will be able to choose which poker room they want to play in with their entire bankroll that they have accumulated while clearing the bonuses.
