They never gave me a deposit bonus, not sure what I was supposed to get, but I never bothered to pursue it too hard. I e-mailed support, but they didn't reply. figured it was a scam site to not even reply. Since I busted out, and they didn't reply, I didn't reload.
I absolutely DO NOT want to play a tourney that lasts over 3 hours unless it is a big buyin with a big pay off. I never had any desire to re-deposit due to the lol 3 hour late registration, then they let you rebuy after the registration for awhile also, what a joke. maybe chainsaw thinks tourneys should last forever, but I don't think that is a good structure, definitely not for rec players.
A poker tourney doesn't really start until the rebuy period ends. wtf, you expect me to play on a site where you have to play for hours before the real tourney starts. sure I could enter late, but I don't want to enter a tourney late with <10 big blinds.
Betoline's (BOL) software sucks, but at least they have decent sized fields in many of the evening tourneys. Usually several with over $1K GT, and they usually end in about 3 hours, including the 1 hr rebuy period.
I might take a look at ACR again if what your saying is true, that they getting rid of the 3-4 hr rebuy periods. No Omaha tourneys on BOL.
