I don't see any terms and conditions regarding any rollover amount. From what I've read it's a straight up bet....you win, you can cash out...no roll over requirements at all.

Is there a link to the conditons you refer to?

In their normal T&C it gives the GENERAL details of "Bonus" money, which several people seem to think this will fall under.

Hope I am wrong and this is just a huge draw for them, expensive, but probably still worth it in the long run.

Couldn't they have done the same promotion for a smaller amount and still got the same reaction, or more considering some people wouldn't put up a grand just in case?

I got a couple people looking into this right now and will post again when I hear anything.

What does it say in these T&C's exactly about bonus money, which this will be considered? I'm asking, I honestly don't know.

I can't find a definition of bonus money. After years of whoring poker bonuses, I must say this looks like the shit .

Without hearing from anyone I know, and been down the road of shaky bonuses in the past I have to say I honestly don't see anything that looks out of line here.

FWIW
