On a side note, I went to play some of those $3.40 turbo sngs and realized they are $3 + $.40... for whatever reason I thought they were a better deal rake wise than that (3.1 +.3 or something like that), so I'm going to avoid those and stick to the $6 + .5 sngs.

I believe the $6.50's actually give 3 vpp anyway so they're a much better deal rake wise and vpp wise. I'm comfortable playing the $6.50's anyway.

Poker bankroll: About $2000 -- I would not be crushed if I went busto, but it would really suck. (Have a friend that would stake me but I don't want this.)

I'm mainly wanting to play $6.50 and $3.40 turbo STTs. (9 max for $6.50, 10 max for $3.40)

and 1/2 6 max Limit HE.


I'm currently gold star and have a bit over 7000 fpps. It's very unlikely that I'll make platinum star this month. However, it is very likely that I will make it to plat next month. (fwiw, I spent the other points on entry into the million turbo takedown)

Doing some math I realized that the 25k fpp cash bonus (the gold star one for $285) is 14% better than the silver star (5k for $50) and the platinum star (50k fpp for $650) is 30% better than the silver star bonus (or about 14% better than the gold bonus)

I would feel comfortable playing higher than I am now (I have done so in the past when I had a larger roll, before I stopped playing to not be distracted at college and started vacuuming money out for living expenses)

However, I don't really want to play higher until I grow my roll some more.


So my question is:

Is it worth it to take the $50 bonus now so that I can play higher sooner more comfortably, or should I wait and go for a better fpp value bonus?
