Hard to understand your logic considering that if your playing poker; then your playing to win anyways and how long you have to keep money alive shouldnt be a issue if your winning anyways. Seems like when people bet on sports or even put money in on poker, their doing so with the thought process of already losing that amount ? I play to win so keeping and building these bankrolls do not bother me

I see where you are coming from but still cant agree. Lets put it this way: Its the same with sportsbetting as it is with poker, your main goal should be to maximise your income. When sportsbetting you can achieve this goal by shopping lines and get the best value for your wager. In poker it is to make the most money out of your play, and when you take these free bankrolls you just dont do this. On average you have to generate about 200-250 USD in rake to be able to withdraw your 50$. When using kickback bonuses, for your 200 USD in rake you could make as much as:
Full Tilt: 100 USD Kickback +20 USD bonus for roughly 70 USD in rake
EuroPoker: 100 USD + 60 USD bonus for roughly 100 USD in rake
Betfair: 80 USD + 20 USD bonus for 50 USD in rake..
When I sum this up you get 380 USD for the same amount of rake, I know you see this different but to me the whole game is about maximising my income and therefore it makes much more sense to me doing it this way.
And to the other point, of cause I play to win money anyway, but why not taking the money you get in addition too?
