Hilton App spree

Hey Guys,

Looking for a little advice on my next app spree coming the next few weeks. I am looking to really attack Hilton points. Here is what I have on tap, could you all let me know if I can do what I am going to try and do?

2 x Citi Hilton 50,000 points after $1500 spend in 6 months (two browser trick).
BoA Hawaiian Airlines 35,000 miles after $1000.00 spend in 4 months
BoH Hawaiian Airlines 35,000 miles after $1000.00 spend in 4 months
(Do I need to do two browser trick for BoA and BoH?)
American Express Hilton 50,000 points after $750.00 spend in 3 months.

It has been about 70 days since my last Citi app. It has been about 6 months since my last BoA app. It has been about 4 years since my last Amex app. Not considering credit score, any reason I wouldn't get approved? As in, will BoA approve two apps on the same day? Can I get all three Hilton cards on the same day? If my calculations are correct, this should net me 290,000 Hilton points? Should I go for the Virgin Airlines over one of the BoA apps? I was also thinking of throwing in the Chase Hyatt Card since I just got the platinum status but was also thinking about holding out for the 90 days to see if anything better comes along, if not, app before the end of my status trial. Initially, I was planning on getting the Ink Bold, but now with the 10k spend requirement, that is out the window. I will have to wait and see if they bring back the 5k spend.
