is there any interest in poker Bonus

Being an an online poker player, you have probably heard of "no deposit poker bonus." Most poker sites will tell you they offer these kinds of poker bonus, but will reveal few information about them. It is as if they expect you to know what it means already.

So what  does a "no deposit poker bonus" mean ?

In very simple terms, a "no deposit poker bonus" is free money. Online poker can be played with real or play money, but this kind of bonus gives you real money to play poker with. It is absolutely free. No deposit means you don’t have to shell out your own money in order to earn free money. There are some sites which also offer "deposit poker bonus," which means you have to deposit some of your money in order to get the free money. No deposit is the opposite of that.
For example, when you sign up for a "no deposit poker bonus" in a poker site, your account will be credited which you can use to play poker. If you do win, the money is still yours.. It is as simple as that. Some poker sites have some specific rules and it is best to check the terms and conditions of the bonus to get a better understanding of the peculiarity of each site.
Some sites have restrictions on withdrawing your winnings using the "no deposit poker bonus" you received from them. On casino sites there is always a cap on the amount you can withdraw. For example, you can only withdraw a maximum 0 after completing the requirements . Poker sites , however, do not have a cap and you can withdraw everything you won. Another restriction for some poker sites is that you may have to deposit a token amount in order to withdraw your winnings, partially or wholly.
It is important that you should check the terms and conditions of the no deposit poker bonus before availing these feature in order to clear up questions in your head.

Now, you ask, why are these sites offering free money? There are actually several reasons.

There is no better way to invite a person to play poker online than to offer him free money.. A no deposit poker bonus will take away most of those jitters as the player is given a preview of the credibility of the poker site and the security of their credit details.
In playing poker, it ‘s always good advice to choose the one that has proven itself credible .

QQ in a tough spot

Villain is a nit who I think is taking a shot in these games as I was playing with him at 6nl and 10nl a couple of days ago. I had only just sat down but already had ~200 hands on him and he plays 11/6 with 4% 3b (2/54), 75% fold to 3b (only 3/4 though) and 0% 4b (0/4).

I am viewed as 16/12 with 5% 3b, 75% fold to 3b.

Pre is definitely not standard and I 3b QQ most of the time especially otb, probably to like -2.50, villain knows this.

Flop makes me jizz my pants as this is my first ever orbit of 20nl and I flop the stones. Anyway is raising>flatting here?

I think my turn raise looks kinda bluffy and makes my range look really polarised. In hindsight I think flatting>raising here because he's such a nit. But if we flat he probs just c/f river so...

not much dynamics between us, at the time i figured if i make a small raise on the flop it looks like im FOS, and get them to jam over the top. I dont know how much I like it tho, looks like were make them play pretty well vs us, when we raise.
