Entered 2 $11 SnG's and threw the other $2 on red. 3rd in both SnG's and hit for $8 on one of my red bets. Did it all completely plastered.
Up to $48. Will try for more tommorrow night, that was fun.

if you didn't play poker than how did you do this, because I thought maybe you might of had a real good run at BJ but I just tried to play that with this $15 and there was no money there only a few pennies, but it would let me sit down with $15 at the poker tables.
I think you have to restart the client after your claim of the $15 to be able to play blackjack with the money. | | Static Link |

Thank you for contacting us.
I do not see your account eligible for the 2006JUNE25 bonus. That is the reason, this bonus was not issued to your account by the system. We did offer this bonus to a few players but unfortunately, you were not one among them. On the contrary, you were one of those select players who were offered a cashout restricted bonus (no deposit required bonus) worth 15.00 (JUNECASH15).
Not all the players are eligible for all the bonuses all the time. Our marketing team selects a different set of players each time and offers them bonuses and promotional offers. Therefore, it is quite possible that you might not have been offered this bonus.
However, we do keep coming up with various bonus offers every now and then, an... | | Read Entire Entry |

That's exactly what I am doing. Unfortunately I lost the first SNG so I have $9.
What is the highest limit that you are allowed to buy in for only $9 with? I thought I saw 25NL had a minumum of $10 buyin.
$5 is minimum.
Was leading or thereabouts in SnG but just got creamed by FH vs flush. Down to 7th.
Ah well - was fun while it lasted. Sng was no-go. $9.0 to PL NL. 33 wouldn't fold so $6 left. 50 seat SnG. Early doors QQ, standard raise, with a minimal raiser behind. AQrag flop. All in to ward off AK AQ KK etc., plus not wasting too much time unless I think I can money. Only AA to worry about. AA takes me down.
Cya Empire.

Same thing for me, except after I claimed the bonus, I also deposited. Then after playing a while there was no restriction on the 15 bucks, and also no reference on the bonus page.
So I withdrew, but I'm pretty sure I didn't play 150 RH.
The great thing about a $15 CRB is that CRBs bust when their balance goes below $10. And you always play with the CRB first. So all you have to do is lose $5.01 and the rest is yours free and clear.
I didn't know that, but it makes the argument for playing an $11 SNG even stronger.
Yeah, I'm doing it with $6 Stud/8 SnGs when I don't want to play real poker. It's not really enough to be worth depositing to sticky it up in cash games. | | Static Link |

If you make a deposit of at least 50 USD before 23:59 ET on July 6, 2006, using bonus code 2006JUNE15, you'll get 15% extra, up to a maximum of 75 USD.
So I guess I won't bother with the $200 upgrade as these seem account specific and I should really be doing Hollywood or PokerRoom instead.

Dear xxxxxx,
Thank you for contacting us.
We regret to inform you that your account is not eligible for the bonus that you
are referring to. The promotion you are referring to is only for a few players
selected randomly by the marketing department. Each player gets one or the other
bonus at a particular point of time apart from the regular bonuses we have
However, we value you as a player and issued 20% bonus (maximum up to $100) on
your deposit amount.

I wouldnt usually mess with this but something odd happened. I was at work so for fun.
1] I played 40 raked hands (out of the 150) at ring ..
2] Got low i.e $6... geeze down $9.. bad beats or what.
3] Bought into a $6 SnG - came second - who said I was crap at poker.. bad beat story - the guy hit a 26 outer on the fl0p to take first
BUT more importantly... The money cleared into my main account - I could withdraw (well I could if I put $50 in- wd limits) - no more raked hands left...
If you're feeling frisky with your $15 - you might try the same trick.. | | Static Link |

The bonus needs a play-through, but the profit is yours. So you can SnG it, and take the profits and forget the bonus part.

It said "Get 15 dollars extra in your real account. Go to new bonus offer of your PartyAccount to claim your bonus. You will have to play 150 Raked Hands within 10 days from the date of award to cashout this amount."
I think this is a typo between Party and Empire. The $15 was in my EMPIRE account, not my PARTY account, despite what the popup said.
I doubt it would work, but in case anyone is bored and wants to try it, it said the bonus code was JUNECASH15 when it awarded it to me.
Can confirm this. Just checked my Empire account - have the $15 too - pop-up gave the above message. The PartyAccount thing is a bit misleading - just check your bonus offers in your Empire account - guess they haven't changed all the wordings to be Empire-specific!

The lady said that the system must have givin it to me by mistake (though it was givin to me manually by support). They gave me a compbonus to shut me up, so I'm happy with the bonus I shouldn't have gotton as well as a comp bonus. At any rate, have a nice day guys. Best of luck.
