Poker Stars Deposit Bonus Question...

Ste05

Just a quicky, I was wondering if anyone knows whether if you deposit into Stars to earn the bonus, (i.e. $600) and then withdraw an amount after this deposit are you still eligible for the bonus. The reason I ask this is because one of the terms of the bonus is the following:

If you cash out any amount from your PokerStars account during the Bonus Period, but prior to making a qualifying deposit, you are ineligible for the deposit bonus.

Cheers in advance...

Cheers, I thought that'd be the case, but I was too lazy to do a search, hopefully someone will have an definite answer by the time I'm back from the pub...

I think I saw that if you cash out, and the redeposit you can't avail of the bonus. Not 100% but I read something about it on the 2+2 bonus forum.

I'm pretty sure you're fine to do this Ste05 though you do know you have to actually earn the bonus by getting 7 fpp's per $ bonus, meaning for $120 you will need to play enough to earn 840 fpp's, which is extremely easy. Your pending bonus lasts at least a while and maybe forever so you can take out the $600 and earn the bonus later on if you want.
Stars are wonderful they have me so conditioned to not expecting rakeback or free money that I never even bother with their deposit bonuses when they do have them and I play there all the time.

As I understand it:

if you have the money in Stars, you withdraw it, and redeposit it, you don't get the bonus.

if you deposit 600, then withdraw it, you do get the bonus.

at least I remember doing something like this on Stars.

Yep, you're right Roundtower
