I think not, because as i understand, you get action points for every rake amount :S? Like for instance in B2B there must be like 10€ in the pot for a VIP and if u have 5x that means 5x0.31=1.55€ per each euro in bonus and every dollar u put in a pot that is under 10€ would be wasted so the amount would be even higher.
And it seems to me like its the best bonus for tournament play except bodog if u have a major bankroll and perhaps pokerstars.
you only get action points for contributed raked hands. the amount of points you earn is proportional to the amount of your money which is in the pot at the end of the hand.
most of the tribeca skins do not allow tourney fees to count towards clearing bonus. VC does, but GP and Doyle's only give points towards future freerolls and merch.

Forum: Bonus Whores | | I played a lot of tourneys on Doyle's last year and the Action points really do add up quick. There are tons of just pure gamblers (mostly asian I think) and you quickly start to see the same sharks over and over and over. I agree you will see massive variance but it is a fun place to play. | | Static Link |

| Posted by: ed209 at April 18, 2005, 12:13 pm | | Topic: does golden palace have any skins? Forum: Bonus Whores | you can probably get the same mediocre players at iPoker and Action Poker networks, and the bonuses pay much better there.
didn't you just get here last month? where is all this sudden wide experience about soft players coming from? this site is about bonuses and you want to play on one of the crappiest bonus networks in the entire industry because you happened to get lucky on a couple of early sessions at GP.
the fact that you want to pursue more Tribeca sites with only 80% rakeback on contributed hands, while calling the (up to) 800% TGC bonus "tiring", that shows you have absolutely no concept of rake/bonus structure in online poker.
play wherever you think will make you the most money, but don't act like this is some unchartered bonus crusade. it's just you chasing lucky hands and getting a lot less back for your rake action than virtually everyone else on this board. | | Static Link |

| Posted by: ed209 at April 17, 2005, 4:05 pm | | Topic: does golden palace have any skins? Forum: Bonus Whores | you obviously don't heed my suggestion, oh well.
yes I believe you can get the "bonus" at almost all the Tribeca skins, though not necessarily all of them have a bonus to begin with. I know Victor Chandler doesn't accept US players, and you should check the T&C for any foreign site in general before signing up. also note that some sites are duplicate skins for the Doyle Brunson network, like Platinum Poker, Multibet and Crazy Parrot (Crazy Parrot?!). same deal with Poker Blasters network. so in reality you may only have access to about 4-5 different "real" tribeca skins in total.
you can check the network affiliation of each site by looking at the logo on the home page, or the fine print on the bottom.
again, I think Tribeca/Apex sucks ass, but if you really are doing well against those players I'm obviously not going to stop you. the bonus is garbage unless maybe you play high limit shorthanded on a normal basis. | | Static Link |

its amazing just how many poker sites there are.
is it possible to play and recieve bonuses on each of these skins?
I found golden palace to be a dream site. would love to hit all of them, or those that allow americans. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: ed209 at April 17, 2005, 1:02 pm | | Topic: does golden palace have any skins? Forum: Bonus Whores | GP is on the Tribeca (formerly Apex) poker network:
http://www.tribecatables.com/current_brands.php
skins include
Doyle's Room/Platinum Poker
Victor Chandler
Poker Daddy
Aspinalls
a whole bunch of other no name sites
the players are pretty bad on Tribeca, but the "Action Points" bonuses suck as well. All of them. You can do Golden Palace for PSO or Boogster points, but I would forget about the rest unless you're really kicking ass in actual play to offset the crap whoring rate. | | Static Link |
