| Posted by: jimpo at September 1, 2006, 11:40 pm | | Topic: It's Thursday, PARTY Bonus time!!! Forum: Bonus Whores | I am doing my Party reload now, and once again I am reminded why I usually do not play at Party
- games at 0.5/1 are much worse than for example Prima 1/2
- no way of knowing the flop% of the table when selecting
- ADHD players. Usually I can play for about 10 minutes before the table breaks
I pity those "I only play at Party" fools.... | | Static Link |

Judging from the bonus I rec'd, and a bunch of others too, 12x is not far off. I'd like to think the next one will be 10x but not holding my breath. | | Static Link |

CRBs are "cleared" in one of two ways:
1) By meeting the raked hands requirement.
2) By losing enough money on the CRB so that the balance goes below $5.
I'm going to guess you placed ITM in the first SNG you played, but not in the second. The loss of $11 would take the balance to $4, below the $5 threshold, and thus the bonus is cleared off of your page.
(So no, deposit bonuses can't be cleared in SNGs.) | | Static Link |

Forum: Bonus Whores | | Is it possible to clear reloads via sit'n go's? party says no but that free 15$ (150 hands required) was cleared when you played two $11 SNG's. This might mean that since you always pay there 1$ rake, it might be worth 100 raked hands ( one raked hand = $0.01 rake / player ) although you don't get more raked hands when the pot is bigger. Does this only work for that free money or has anyone tried this with reloads? so a 75$ (750 hands) reload would only require 8x 11$ SNG's? That would be great but I think that only works when you get free money to play with. There it works for sure though. | | Static Link |

Sorry. For some reason I thought the rake was 5%, not 10%.
Is there anywhere on their site that they specify the rake in BG games? I don't see it.
At low limits it looks like it might be even worse; I just played a 50-cent play money game, and got 87 cents for winning, so risking 50 cents to win just 37 cents. You had better be REALLY good to beat that kind of rake. | | Static Link |

If it's still wager $3500, $175 in rake for $100 bonus, so if you don't know anything about BG, bad idea. (If you do know something about BG, still pretty lame.)
The $175 rake is shared between 2 players, so this would be slightly +Ev if you are just as good as the players you play against. If you are good at backgammon and play against idiots it might be OK.

Forum: Bonus Whores | No Party bonus for me in a couple of months - after all the money I've donated to the Monster in the last few weeks you'd think they would throw me a bone...

I got no love at Party, and only a $20 CRB at empire....
But on the plus side Empire "relaunched" it's VIP club, and after 3 years of playing there, I am HALF way to qualifying for it

Use the Bonus Code "AUG06RELOAD20" when you make your next deposit before 31-AUG-06 23:59 hrs EDT and get 20% extra (Max $100) in your bonus account. You will have to play Raked Hands = 10 times the bonus amount on Poker OR Wagering = 25 times the bonus amount on Casino within 7 days from the date of award to cashout this amount. Release restrictions apply.

At the bottom of the right hand pop up I found AUG06REL75 15% up to $75 at 12x. I guess I'll do the 900 hands after I finish the 15% up to $75 10x Empire bonus I found earlier today.
However, as the other poster said it kind of sucks it's gone up to 12x. | | Static Link |

Not great, but I feel obliged to steal more cash from Party as a matter of principle.

My wife got AUG06RELOAD75 %15 to $75 at 10x.
If you get the box that pops up on the left hand side when you lot in, you have to scroll down to see the offer.
12x on that one kinda sucks, these have went from 5x to 7x to 10x and now to 12x for me | | Static Link |

| Posted by: ChowFan at August 25, 2006, 2:05 am | | Topic: It's Thursday, PARTY Bonus time!!! Forum: Bonus Whores | Well, seeing that no one else got this, first thing I did this morning was to log back on to Party to make sure I wasn't dreaming. Sure enough, it's still there. Let's just hope it's still there when I deposit next week.
According to the accompanying email I got, I also get one of those Monster weekly freeroll things (assuming I depost before the 4th)
What's funny is I got 2 emails, one on 22nd and one on 24th -
22nd - We haven’t seen you around in awhile and wanted to offer you a reason to come back…Free Money!
24th - We haven’t seen you around for awhile and wanted to offer you a reason to come back…A deposit bonus and a free entry in a 100,000 USD Monster Weekly Freeroll!
Must be my lucky week. To be sure, while working on the $30 bonus, I got AA on my 2nd hand, and 3 AAs in just over 100 raked hands (0.5/1 limit) | | Static Link |
| Posted by: BoboFett at August 24, 2006, 11:57 pm | | Topic: It's Thursday, PARTY Bonus time!!! Forum: Bonus Whores | | No bonus here either...nor did I get the welcome back bonus. But, happy to see they still haven't touched my $2.15 or my 400 Party Points (quickly ordered a book earleir this week in case they took them) despite getting my money out from the Gammon fiasco. Maybe I'll get through that unscathed... | | Static Link |
