Big thanks goes out to my friend Glenn, who runs his own poker blog at Weekly Poker Show (you should give it a visit!). He’s helping me hosting this blog as Bonus Hound doesn’t want anything to do with the blog anymore and doesn’t want to host it either.

World Series of Poker satellites start Saturday, March 11. This year PokerStars is giving away more than $5 Million in free WSOP prize packages and running more cash satellites than ever before.

From now through March 13, PokerStars is offering its players 20% up to $120 in free cash on their next deposit.

Deposit up to $600 during the qualifying period and you’ll receive a 20% bonus. Deposits over $600 will be eligible for the maximum $120 bonus. To earn the deposit bonus, you must earn an additional number of FPPs equal to five times the bonus amount. For instance, a $500 deposit ($100 bonus attached) requires you to earn 500 FPPs (5 x 100) to release the bonus.

Check the PokerStars website for more information.

Make your first deposit at PokerRoom.com and receive not only 40% up to $200 in first deposit bonus, but also a free ticket to the $2 Shark Cage real money beginners’ tournament! The minimum deposit is only $10. You do not need to enter a deposit code to get your standard 40% First Deposit Bonus.

The Shark Cage is an invitational tournament accessible for new depositing players on PokerRoom.com. This enables players to take it easy, get used to how a tournament works and learn to play without having to deal with seasoned PokerRoom.com players.

To get the deposit bonus you need to collect enough player points within 60 days of the initial deposit. A bonus requires 7 player points for every dollar. For example, a deposit bonus of $20 will require 140 player points. As soon as you have collected the points needed, your bonus will automatically be credited to your PokerRoom account.

The bonus is easy to earn: 0.07 Player Points are awarded for every $0.10 paid in rake. So a rake of $3 will award all players in the hand 2.1 Player Points. 5 player points are awarded for every paid dollar in tournament entry fees.

Top 6 new-player perks available at Party Poker:

1. Choice of Bonus: Many new players don’t know you have a choice of bonus at Party Poker. Use bonus code BONUSBLOG to get an extra 20% on your first deposit up to $100.
