Losing access to Prima poker rooms is pretty much a minor issue to me. The traffic for full ring limit games has always been really lousy from 2/4 up. I grant you that it *could* improve, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

As long as they don't ban players from states that ban poker entirely (I've never seen a site ban people from states that ban all poker, just the ones that only ban online poker), I'll be fine.

Quote: Yo Ho,
UNLAWFUL INTERNET GAMBLING ENFORCEMENT ACT
As you may have noticed, there has been extensive Media coverage concerning the new Gaming Legislation in the US and the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA).
Pending the signing of new laws in congress, we may have to block play from states in which online gambling is deemed to be illegal, with effect from 13 October 2006.

| Posted by: Sigurd at August 10, 2006, 7:03 pm | | Topic: Golden Riviera Forum: Bonus Whores | If you didn't find much information you didn't look very thoroughly. All the info is on Golden Riviera, although it takes a little deciphering to make some sence of. If you want to have any future bonuswhoring, you really have to put more energy into figuring stuff like this out.
There are two reasons for this:
1. If you rely on others to do the thinking for you, you will get burned sooner or later becaus you got some old information or someone didn't give you some crucial piece of information becaus they didn't care/were sloppy becaus it isn't their money on the line.
2. In general it isn't in other peoples best interest to help you, since if more people do a specific bonus, it will disappear faster.
Now, for your question:
It does not say "200% up to 150$" on the Golden Riviera website, it says "200% OR up to 150$".
According to the promotions page they offer the following bonuses:
no deposit gives 10$<----------- 10$ bonus

| Posted by: terrellk11 at April 27, 2006, 1:55 pm | | Topic: Golden Riviera Forum: Bonus Whores | With GR, keep in mind that they have a bonus promotion where you get cash based on how many qualifying raked hands you played during that month. The monthly period runs from the 27th through the 26th with the funds being added to your account before the end of the month.
It isn't much (I think I'm getting like $6 for hands played while earning my bonus), but I'll wait until it is credited before withdrawing. | | Static Link |

| Posted by: mtxed at April 26, 2006, 5:37 pm | | Topic: Golden Riviera Forum: Bonus Whores | I had no problems with Golden Riviera. Finished the bonus last week and the money appeared in my Neteller few days later. Same with Spin City & Wild Jacks. No problems with Primas so far .

| Posted by: tom218 at April 26, 2006, 5:30 pm | | Topic: Golden Riviera Forum: Bonus Whores | Others have reported problems cashing out all of account at once. I have had no problems but I cashed out in increments $50 - $125 at a shot. There was a thread about this a few months ago right after the BET 365 snafu and when Golden Riviera stopped doing weekly deposit boni. I'm too lazy to search for the details but if you're real worried I'd try to search for that thread.

| Posted by: shebang at August 6, 2005, 8:54 am | | Topic: Golden Riviera Forum: Bonus Whores | London,
I would consider GR one of the better prima sites in terms of reliability and decent customer service. Btw, i have never been asked for my id at any of them, not even at Crazy Poker. And yes, i got screwed at CityPoker as well, so i know what you mean.
On the thread referred to and started by Elric, there is a post by Dokoko on page 24 that lists the current deal on GR weekend bonus.
Yes, it was rather unnecessary to start a new thread on GR. However, we are all entitled to an occasional mistake. One of the reasons i like the BW site is that it has been largely a good exchange of information. No pumping oneself up by some poker "genius", no berating of other players. Let's keep the forums in that friendly, cooperative spirit. | | Static Link |

that post is 24 pages, i thought it was 3... ok you guys are right i am an idiot... i dont know how i didnt see the remaining 21 pages... but to my credit at the end of page 3 it was only february so it was outdated and i didnt see anything about id's...this was the post that i was refering to, but i dont understand how my retardedness didnt see the last 21 pages of posts.... anyways, i still dont see how you guys are being helpful or productive members of the forum by speaking down to me and berating me...

i obviously dont have as much time on my hands as you guys...i am so confused.... anyways, what im saying is that i did do my research but i wanted some clarification because i dont really trust any prima with the status of their bonuses...so if you get off calling people "goat fuckers" then i guess that's your problem...

I think it is you who need to lighten up some. The very first answer you got even directed you to a thread that was hardly hidden deep in the recesses of advanced search - it was right there on the first page. The most recent post was made only hours before you made yours, so it was current alright. There was a post there from less than two weeks ago, summarizing the current offer.
What more could you have asked for when you started this thread? If information is that easily available to you, be prepared to take the sarcastic remarks. You still got presented with a link to the information you were after.
