| Posted by: iceberg8888 at August 1, 2006, 11:06 pm | | Topic: Party Poker Summer Sizzle Forum: Bonus Whores | Whether as a whore or as a normal player of party poker, I simply can't get myself to play pp after their monster promotion that they are running and now this. The reason that I play at pp is for the fishes and the bonus, the monster tables take away from the normal cash tables the fishes and the bonus simply sucks

Party does run concurrent raked hand promos along with deposit reloads. The Magic Card promo in May, Scratch Off cards and the Football questions are examples. Also, they did this Aug joke of a promotion last year and still gave a reload. The person who said to take it or leave it doesnt have a clue what he's talking about or he's just saying it to get a rise out of us. Stupid Bonuswhore Rookie could be another reason. | | Static Link |

And this opinion is based on...... ?
on the fact that they have reduced number of reloads and since there already is a promotion that lasts whole month why would they be double paying for raked hands?

Once upon a time, I used to be a Golden Boy, but I still don't think the bonus points awarded for Gold members are counted for this promo. Maybe I'm wrong... | | Static Link |

Thanks for the response.
I don't think "bonus" party points are counted for this promo, only "earned" points. | | Static Link |

Heel, what do you mean by "180 raked..."?
100PP per day = 500 raked hands per day = about 3 or 3.5 hours per day 4-tabling ($1/2 limit). | | Static Link |

Nothing against you, I got the email too. I would have just preferred a 20% up to 100$ with 7 times the raked hands. Like the old monthlies used to be

Definitely only good if you play there all the time. I'm tempted to try for the 300, but I know there will be days this month where I won't have time to play. Screw them

| Posted by: jackaho at July 31, 2006, 5:07 pm | | Topic: Party Poker Summer Sizzle Forum: Bonus Whores | | The problem is you have to overshoot every single day if you're chasing the bonus or $300 turns into $150. Not like it matters much since the bonus is worthless. Who wants to gamble that Party's stats are accurate for 30 straight days? | | Static Link |
| Posted by: guppy at July 31, 2006, 3:23 pm | | Topic: Party Poker Summer Sizzle Forum: Bonus Whores | | The formula for calculating points is pretty straightforward, so if you keep track of raked hands with Pokertracker, or by some other method, it doesn't sound too difficult to make sure you are done. Of course, I've never actually done this, so I can't say firsthand how annoying it would be. But if you are serious about chasing this, you probably want to overshoot a bit in case you make a mistake.Probably makes sense to overshoot by a bit. | | Static Link |

Excellent point and one that gives me pause when considering these PP points promos. How in the hell can you be sure that you have fulfulled the 100 point requirement each day?
Of course, the players they are trying to reward with this promo aren't the type to obsess over it as any whore would.

Have non-poker life get in the way for one day, and get just $150 instead, for perhaps a 35x bonus. Play on low limit NL tables instead for 500 raked hands/day and get a 52x bonus.
Or skip poker and play in the casino instead to put in over $75k in action for a $300 bonus.
I think this is probably a great promotion for them-- a nice reward for their best/most frequent players without being much of an incentive for anyone just chasing bonus money.
I pass. I have a lot of B2B chasing to do this month. Even if Party comes out with a nice reload this month clearing it wouldn't put much of a dent into getting the 10-day $30 bonus. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: ruestm at July 31, 2006, 10:06 am | | Topic: Party Poker Summer Sizzle Forum: Bonus Whores | hmmm 5000 raked hands for $30...
for those who play there anyways.. its a bonus..... but i`ll pass the 166.66x
its probably better to do the 15500 hands for $300.... that would be a 51.6x
But that would be alot of pounding....
Where are those 10x offer.... shoot its not Thursday yet... | | Static Link |
