Absolute Poker is one of the most well known poker rooms. They offer a really great 100% first deposit bonus. The bonus amount will automatically be added to your pending bonus account where it will be held and automatically released to your cash account based on the following easy requirements: For each raked hand (minimum rake of $0.50) you play and reach the flop you will receive 1 point.

The Bonus
Absolute Poker has just reduced the amount of points needed to convert bonus cash into real cash. Now, players earn $5 for every 20 points. Use the bonus code AP500 during your first deposit to receive your sign-up bonus. The maximum initial deposit bonus is $500. The Bonus Amount will automatically be added to your Pending Bonus account where it will be held and automatically released to your cash account based on the following easy requirements: For each raked hand (minimum rake of $0.50) you play and reach the flop you will receive 1 point. You will also receive 1 point for each $1 of tournament buy-in fee. Please note that the tournament fee is now collected as 9% of the total of the prize pool and that pending points will be based on the fee collected, rounded up to the closest whole number. For example a $10 tourney will generate $0.90 in fees and will earn 1 point. This new system from Absolute Poker makes this bonus very easy to clear.

Software and Graphic
The software is very good and very stable. The graphic is ok although it's not that entertaining, more basic. All the basic features are there like player notes and hand history. There is also a very good "find a player" feature. The lobby is very well structured and it's easy to navigate.
