What in the world is PartyGaming portfolio? Is it a subsidiary of IGM? Come on, this is the zoo, speculate!

I just read 30%, 200 dollars and then zoned out.

This is good news. I know a lot of people were using PokerNow for rakeback, but you only need one skin for that, and those people will make new arrangements.

It is good to have as many Party skins throwing off reloads as possible, and if Party, Empire, and PokerNow each do this monthly or bi-monthly, there will be a lot of happy bonus whores, and we should appreciate that frequency of reloads. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

got the email as well.

cant seem to see if its 5x, 7x or 10x anywhere.

anyone know?

I will speculate then...The new management at PokerNow has been watching Absolute Poker, and Poker Now will begin offering reloads "Absolute Style." You know, $400 reload to celebrate Thursday, a $350 reload to celebrate Friday, and etc, etc. Hey it's a nice dream at least..

There was a post at casion affiliate website from IGM about rake back.

They said it is going away for all the skins. I cant find the email from my affiliate. They canceled my rakeback.


The post said they were going to do away with listing players MGR. How can they do rakeback with no MGR.

This sucks, but what can you do?

If they did this, they could kill a lot of smaller sites. Why do Crypto if you have nearly unlimited PokerNow? Or any of the other sites with either tight games or crappy software.

Of course, if all the whores leave those sites, they may become soft again. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

If I create an account at PokerNOW would I be able to have both the 20% up to 100 new player and this reload?

Has anyone tried this? Are they stackable?

Thanks.

This is more of a wet dream than speculation. Still after reading this I will have to stay seated for a few minutes.

There is really no chance that Party would allow this. Multiple monthly reloads (not to mention daily like AP) would kill the other skins.

Sweet!

I believe that IGM is/has changed their official name to PartyGaming in connection with their IPO.
