Topic: Empire reload! 15% to $100 Forum: Bonus Whores

Sure you may think you are getting something for nothing, a measly 15%, but you pay them back much much more than that in excessive rake charges.

It's worth it because the games are soft there? I don't think so. Nothing is worth paying those rakes at low limits if you play alot. Say you play 1000 games a day. You win 100 games at the 50./1.00 table. 80 of those games are under 10 bucks or just under 12 bucks. You end up paying them 20 bucks a day in extra rake. 600 per month, 7200 per year. It's a joke for the low limit players. The joke is on you.

You have GOT to be kidding me. MUCH more important than the %age of bonus is the hands played requirement. $100 for 500 hands is as good as it gets, regardless of the rake (within reason.) I have $700 in Neteller to throw at them for a week while I play a bonus, then withdraw upon completing it.

I never play there (or anywhere) if there is not a bonus in the offing, so I can absorb the increase in rake for a while to make the easy bonuses.

If the higher rake = better bonuses, I can handle it. Plus I love the Party/Empire/Intertops software.

The joke is on the regular players there who absorb the rake all the time, without a bonus.
