One of the easiest, quickest and most often used ways to distinguish between poker bonuses is simply looking at their amount.  For this reason I felt it was best to be the first comparison of poker bonuses done by us here at comparepokerbonuses.com.

For this comparison we are looking at the maximum possible bonus the poker rooms are offering to you.  That is if you were to deposit a large enough sum to earn the entire bonus available.  The size of the bonus is of the most importance to high roller players who can get through the clearing requirements easily and have the available cash to deposit a large amount into their account with their first deposit.

Biggest Poker Bonus Amount goes to PKR.  At PKR you have the option to choose from 4 different deposit bonus options and the highroller option, which is a 100% matching bonus up to $2K gives the biggest bonus available on the internet today.  There is a specific PKR bonus code for each different bonus.

Smallest Poker Bonus Amount goes to PokerStars who is still only giving a $50 initial deposit bonus to new players.  PokerStars obviously does not feel they need to give a larger bonus and players are proving this as PokerStars continues to be the biggest poker room online and it shows no signs of slowing down.

Most Poker rooms will offer about a $500 first deposit bonus.  This is true with two of our featured rooms, CD Poker and Cake Poker.  Full Tilt, our other featured room, is close to this amount, offering up to $600 as an initial deposit bonus.

**I want to stress that the size of the bonus should not be the only factor when looking at poker bonus offers.  The truth is very few new players will deposit enough to take advantage of the entire bonus anyways, so this comparison should really only be of help to the big money players.  In the future we will look at clearing requirements and matching percentages, which will be of more use to the typical player.
