So, suppose you two-table 2/4 for an hour, equals 130 hands of which 70 are raked, making an average rake of 80 cents a game. You contribute to 20 pots, of which, say, 12 are raked at an average of $1.50. That gives you about 13 points an hour, making 385 hours of play required in 90 days.
Achievable, but not easy and not really worth it.
Comparisons: Party Poker 2-tabling at 2/4 gets you an average of 50 raked hands an hour, which would mean you would have to play 70 hours for the bonus.
Stars is the best of the lot. You would knock off $480 of the bonus in just, er, about 55 hours, I reckon.
Ultimate, the previous yardstick for bonus suckability, would require 130 hours two-tabling 2/4 play to get to the $500. So the Coral offer is three times worse than that.
Looks at another way, you would probably pay $1500 or more in rake to get the $500 bonus. It's a rakeback, and not even a proportional one. Avoid.
