On Poker Stars, if you are working off a deposit bonus and make a withdrawal you lose the remaining unearned portion of the bonus (at least that is my understanding). My question is regarding the effect of transferring cash out to another player. I did a small one ($10) without considering the possible consequences, but it seems I am still getting the bonuses.

Does anyone happen to know the policy on this? I'm thinking about making a purchase via transfer, but I don't want to jeopardize my still tasty first deposit bonus.

Transfers (incoming or outgoing) don't affect bonuses, even the first time deposit bonuses.

Cool, thanks for that info. Seems to provide an easy way to circumvent the no withdrawal policy -- apparently not much of an issue for them. Anyway, gonna put some of my hard-earned freeroll winnings to use on a shiny new SNG Wizzard registration!

If you sign up and could get the $600 bonus you got 3 deposits to deposit the full $600, so if you only deposited $200, they will not give you the remaining deposits if you make a withdrawel. But you will of course still get the bonus from the $200 you depositet. Obv they do this to stop you from withdrawing and depositing the same $200 three times. Same goes for reload bonuses.

Edit: Diden't get the player-player part, but I let my post stay anyways.
