Default Can I do this

Could I cash out all my chips, uninstall my poker room software, sign up under a new name and get a bonus for a first time deposit using the same software, reinstalled?

Default Not a good idea!

Hi Arrrif:

When signing up to play poker online it is expected that you are using your true name so using a name different then your own isn't the right thing to do. If you get caught as one of the bonus hounds you could be banned from the card room. I suggest you find another poker room offering an excellent bonus and sign up there to take advantage of their bonus offer as well you might find you like the new poker room better.

It isn't uncommon for players to have several online poker accounts at various rooms.

Below I have listed a few rooms that offer decent bonuses.

ABSOLUTE POKER 100% SIGN UP BONUS TO A MAXIUMUM OF $500.00


FULLTILT POKER 100% SIGN UP BONUS TO $500.00

Why don't you try joining a room like Absolute or Party Poker where they are constantly offering reload bonuses? Also, if you're on one of the 'network' sites, you can join another room on the network and get the sign-up bonus for that particular room (good with Prima sites).As for uninstalling, I think the poker sites are wised up to people doing that and you could risk having your account suspended if you use the same email or deposit method. There's no reason why you can't sign up under a family or friends name though.Check out this I've already collected a couple of them and am workng my way down the list - it's also good for trying out new rooms.

This answer depends on which poker room you are playing through. Some (full tilt poker), you can actually cash out your money, and without having to uninstall the software, just create another account and receive the initial first time deposit bonus of $600. Of course, you have to use a different email address than you used to sign up for your first account.
