| Posted by: Somescum at February 16, 2006, 11:41 pm | | Topic: New Party Poker Look - Possibly New Bonus Forum: Bonus Whores | I don't like the new lobby. Tacky. Also, why won't any site make their lobby resizable? Why cram all that stuff in there in fixed 800*600? I don't get it.
Also, you can only play four PLO8-tables and they aren't resizable. That's just for holdem see... Pathetic.
And they've grouped PLO and PLO8 toghether now. Stupid, I only want PLO8. | | Static Link |

Party buys Empire, Empire gives bonuses, Party changes software.
Are Empire profits locked in to go to Party now? Good time to change s/w if so - if everyone hates it and goes to Empire, who cares in the next Board meeting?

Why does party take 10% rake when everyone else only takes like 5%?!!!
Or am I just seeing this wrong.
Because they're not losing customers cuz of it.

You now also have to click on a table and then click the buttons to fold / call / etc which is really annoying.
Then they made their cashier like poker room so you have to add your "in play" and your "current balance" to see how much money you really have.
The filters are nice but other then that it was an uneeded upgrade. | | Static Link |

Did you check whether that was a jackpot table? They expanded the number of those. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: EZ at February 16, 2006, 4:17 pm | | Topic: New Party Poker Look - Possibly New Bonus Forum: Bonus Whores | not of fan of the new look. you would think the ad wizards that came up with this would've had the new players club merchandise at the same time.
can't figure out the table filter feature...not sure if you can still look for a very specific table....... ie .... 5 players (at 6 max) with pot between blank and blank | | Static Link |
| Posted by: pluntzky at February 16, 2006, 4:10 pm | | Topic: New Party Poker Look - Possibly New Bonus Forum: Bonus Whores | The software is not the old beta, ive been running the beta for quite some time i had to upgrade, its a totally new look actually, althou its still party-style.
When i tried to login the cashier functions was not fully up and running so they might still have som mainteance left.

Now you can change the size of the tables which I love.
It says I have a 15% up to 75 bonus in the main lobby but when I look at the new bonus window it's not there. I guess they are launching a whole new marketing campaign for all the changes so we might be seeing this bonus or others.

I guess I could be not so lazy and install the new software, but I'm wondering if it's just the beta that's been available for a couple of months (allows resizing...which is nice...but it's not a new look per se.) | | Static Link |
