Current Bonus Code - none required
If the first time you deposit and play your deposit is $50 or more, then you will earn a first time deposit bonus of 150% of your first deposit up to a maximum of $1,000 bonus. This is a one time bonus for first depositors only.

Our full updated review can be found on our main Alternate Poker site : Bugsy's Club Poker Review



Extra Information :
To get your deposit bonus, you must first collect 100 Bugsys Bonus Points (BBP) for every $10 of Bonus awarded. You can earn Bugsys Bonus Points in both Ring Games and Tournament play. You can see how many points you have left to earn by checking on the cashier page.

Anyone who receives a 'First Deposit' Bonus is not eligible to receive any other type of deposit bonus currently running.

The deposit bonus is released $10 at a time automatically into your real money account each time you reach the required bonus conditions. ie deposit $667 and get $1,000 in your bonus account. As soon as you earn 100 BBPs then $10 is released automatically from your bonus account to your real money account.

Minimum deposit is $25 but you must deposit a minimum of $50 for the deposit bonus.

i'm currently talking to Bugsy's about the possibilities for us to continue with another season of the HORSE league there. I hope that we can but i can't guarantee it right now so you may want to wait a week or so until i know more.

Update :

There's been a major overhaul of the Bugsy's Club look with a much cooler colour combinations and feel to both the website and client.

I noticed last night that they have restarted their freeroll BBP games again which are a great way to unlock your bonus.

Hi

It  seems like bugsys  keeps updateing themself.. but   I see more and more less people..  they need to do something  to attract people .. I  like it but the traffic keeps  getting lower... I guess with all these other sites   bugsys needs  to something  way out  and take a chance..     its  one of the older  poker rooms  still around....

I have played at bugsys for 5-6 years.  I started with nothing and steadily cashed out over $6k a year for the last 2 years.  No, some of their rules have changed, so it is a little harder to start from scratch there...but it is not a bad site.

It is very small, comparatively, but that allows you the ability to learn the players and for them to learn you.  The better players on the site are very good.  However, there are a lot a of young players in terms of experience.  This does give itself to a lot of fish and 'bad beat' of online poker are very visible here.  

Because of the softness of this site...a very very ABC poker game is necessary to be very successful.  But you have to be paitent.  The variance is a little larger because of the softness as well.

Good luck to anyone who goes there.  It has been good to me over the years, and I am unfortunately liquidating all of my assets there to move to Pokerstars and Fulltilt.  This is all part of my contining growth in the game, and not a reflection of the site.

I would be very interested in teh HORSE league if it were on Bugsys....even the NLHE League as well.

just wondering how much longer it will last?

Update

Just a little back-up on all this.

I've transfered my money without any problems at all to my PokerStars account - it took about 2 days i think. At least they have finished up in an hourable way for the players.

...more than can be said for some.
