I'll be the first to admit that when I heard most of the crypto hourly bonuses were changing to this new "mpp" point system, I was very disappointed and had planned on not playing them anymore as at the time I was playing 1/2 Limit 6max and FR and this bonus seemed like it would take way too long at those tables. But after my first extended try at NL100 6max, I'd have to say that these bonuses are still fairly easy to clear. Albeit it did take 66% longer than the old 5 hours to clear. What really sucked about this whole deal is that I paid $66.06 in rake during this period as well so it's too bad I haven't found a rakeback plan for this site yet!
Final stats for my first shot at one of the new crypto raked hands monthly bonus.
8.3 hours
756 "actual" hands played at NL100 6max (91 hands per hour)
201.25 "raked hands", officially called "mpp's"
Bonus released = £25 = $43.53
Profit made at the tables during this time = $255.36 (most profit I've ever made clearing a crypto bonus, but then this is the first time I've ever played NL100 6max for more than one session)
__________________________________________________________
Total = $298.89 for the month. (16.89 PTBB/100 not including the bonus)
Might have been even better had I not got stacked for an $80 buyin once.
