I just got an E-Mail from Party promising me a hat if I play 100 raked hands.

I don't wear hats.

My dirty blond hair is to beautiful to cover up.

How about a bonus? /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I gotta play 600 to get a hat and a denim shirt. I wish it was a regular t-shirt or somethin. Who wears denim shirts?

I've got to play 500 hands for a cap and a t-shirt. Didn't realize these things weren't all the same!

For 1000 hands I get:

a hat
a t-shirt
a denim shirt

Is this the full gift package?

Sheriff Fatman

So,

Cap = 100 hands
T-shirt = 400 hands
Denim shirt = 500 hands

Anybody else got any different contents in the 'hamper'?

Nope, I got the 100 hands for a cap offer. Is this the end of the Party reload (cash) bonuses?

Well, mine is a free Party Poker hat and T-shirt for playing 400 raked hands by August 8th.

Looks like you've gone and ruined the formula!!

I get an extra 3 days to play the additional 100 hands for the same gift.

Perhaps it is as complicated as Empire's VIP formula after all.

This is the offer I got. Is there any method to the madness here? Why do we all get different offers? Heres my situation:

I regularly play tourneys there, sometimes up to 5 or 6 MTTs a day. Just recently I've started multitabling PL Omaha hi/lo 8 ring games...I easily cleared my 400 hands in one day. So, to the people who got the full offer: Do you usually play a ton? How about the people that only got the 100 offer?

That's the same package I got.

Only 100 hands to get a cap? You are lucky---I had to play 150 hands for the same thing...

Funny sh*t here from Party.

I get a hat and denim shirt for 600 hands. That denim shirt should work good when I go to Gilley's to ride the bull.

It appears like they are not putting this on your bonus page, so you won't have instant updates on how many hands played. Does anyone know how best to keep track?

Wow, I actually got this email, I feel so loved. I need to play 400 raked hands by the 11th to get a hat and tshirt.

It's a win-win for Party. No bonuses being given out plus almost free advertising whenever the "winners" wear the stuff.

NO, NO, NO. We only want offers for cash. A reload available to everyone. If I want a hat, I'll use that cash to buy one.

Just a hat for me too. /images/graemlins/frown.gif

I also don't wear hats.

Come on Party, you can do better than that.

I'm tempted to stay on Paradise for another month instead of going back to Party as I had planned for August.

Should I play 4 tables of .50/1 with the tiny bankroll I left there, just to clear my stupid hat? Or is there a better chance of getting a September reload if I pass up on this generous offer.

if you go to their website and log in, it'll tell you...either way, it shouldn't take long to clear at all, and they'll notify you and ask you of your shirt size when you reach it.

"

mine is good till aug 11.. odd how they are all so different. but i also dont understand why its called a hamper deal, but no hamper.. that does sound like it woulda been the best part...
..and denim shirts suck..

So I get to win *another* hat (they just sent me one last month) while other people get shirts?

As an experiment in 4 tabling with my new monitors, I won the hat and $25 in 1 hour.

4 tabling seemed much tougher than 3, which I had been playing comfortably for months, although at .50/1 I get to play lots of hands and the play seems quicker. Because of this I'm much more likely to be faced with several decisions at once.

The hats are going for as much as $10 on Ebay. If I could win and sell a hat every time I played 100 raked .50/1 hands, my effective BB/100 would be in the double digits. It still wouldn't be worth it.

Ask and yea shall recieve,or how to be a proper redneck.


I ignored the 100 for a hat offer.


Now the popups on party say 20% bonus up to $100,also the hat offer.

Maybe I need to drive some pegs into my wall and start a hat collection. /images/graemlins/cool.gif

No offense to other Rednecks such as myself!

My wife was offered the hat and shirt for 400 hands! And she already has won the Shaina desk calander. Funny, although I have my own account, I've never gotten these offers. I guess that's because I'm the one usuually playing on our computer.
