William Hill Promotional Code 2012

William Hill Promotional Code

REVIEW:

William Hill Poker is a member of the iPoker network of poker sites which consistently ranks as the 3rd largest online poker room.

William Hill Poker offers a generous new poker player welcome bonus of up to £1250/$2000.

The details of achieving the new player bonus cash can be somewhat complicated, but we will explain the procedures to you in simple terms.

First off, create your new account with the William Hill Promotional Code “1250FREE” as seen below:

You are required to deposit £625 or $1,000 to qualify for the maximum 200% matching bonus of £1250 or $2,000.

The bonus money is then given to players based on WH Points achieved while participating in the real-money cash games and tournaments and SnG’s at WilliamHill.com. WH Points are collected according to the amount of rake collected at each poker hand. WHPoints are also earned when tourney fees are paid by the player. You must be part of the hand in the ring game (by calling the hand, etc) or buy in to a tournament to achieve any WH points.

The amount of rake taken at ring games or the buy-in of the poker tournaments or Sit-n-Go’s established the amount of WH Points given to players.

You need to achieve 350 William Hill player points to be awarded a $5 bonus. Since WilliamHill.com explains its bonus in $USD, we’ll stick with that currency for our examples.

The William Hill bonus is paid out in $5 increments, up to the upper limit of $2,000. So you can earn 400 individual payments of $5 each, therefore you would have to achieve a total 140,000 William Hill points to earn the complete $2,000 or £1250 bonus.

You have 60 days to cash out as much of the bonus as possible. Or all of it. It’s all up to you!

So exactly how are the points earned?

In terms of tourney play, 45 points are awarded for each £1 of tournament fee paid. See the table below for all currencies:

With regards to cash games, William Hill points are distributed according to the Rake Range at a particular ring game and the WHPoints chart becomes much more convoluted. You can see the full chart at http://www.poker-bonuscode.eu/william-hill-promotional-code/. But to give you an idea, you earn 1.5 WHPoints if the rake is £0.20, 9 points if the rake is £1.00, and 36 points if the rake is £3.00.

Most players ask, how many hours do I need to play to achieve my free £1250? Of course, this all depends on the table stakes, the number of players at the table, the average pot size, etc.

But we can estimate the number of hours by adopting the following scenario of playing the £200 NL, £1-£2 blinds 10 player table. We will assume an average pot size of £20.00 which is pretty typical for these stakes. Under this scenario, the rake would be £0.05 for every £1.00 in the pot, so if the pot size is £20.00, the rake would be £1.00.

This means the poker player has achieved 9 William Hill poker points for participating in the hand with a £1.00 rake. Typical online poker players can play about 70 hands/hour, so the player could possibly collect 630 WH Points per hour playing this particular table. Achieving the mandatory 140,000 William Hill poker points to receive the full £1250 bonus would require about 222 hours of playing poker!

222 hours of poker play sounds like a lot but it isn’t that bad once you start multi-tabling. William Hill allows you to play up to 16 tables at the same time. And don’t forget William Hill Poker provides the new player a 60-day timeframe to achieve as much of the welcome bonus as possible!

When comparing the details of this bonus to other online poker welcome bonuses, it ranks as EXCELLENT. To earn $1 in bonus, you would have to collect 70 William Hill poker points, or spend $2.33 in tournament fees. Both PokerStars and Party Poker have a ratio of 3:1, or you must spend $3.00 in tournaments fee to earn $1 in bonus money, so the new player bonus at William Hill is much easier to earn.

William Hill also offers various other advantages such as freerolls for new depositors, a VIP club that can reward even more cash bonuses, and much more.
