Party Bonus

[astarck]

I've heard from a few places that Party has a bonus 'BONUS4U' which is $25 free/no raked hand requirements. I recently made a deposit using this bonus code and nothing happened at all.

Has anyone tried this bonus code and gotten it to work?

Hmmm...Not good news for me.

Even though I don't really need the bonus money (its more that I want it) maybe I'll try emailing the excellent party support begging them for $25, just so I can get a standard 5-second-took-to-reply email.

This might be helpful to those looking for this bonus. Following is the response:

In order to avail the bonus, you need to use the bonus code as BONUS4U while creating your account but not while making your deposit. And also I see that you have already received a sign up bonus(INSTANT) and as such we will not be able to issue the bonus in this regard as all players are eligible for only one sign up bonus.

So, when Party finds out about all these non-UK whores signing up for the bonus, they're probably going to cancel it, right?

[DogRockets]

Got mine...still working!

Worked for me BUT,
first I got an error saying that Neteller was not a deposit option for me.

So I called party / paypro support and they put me on hold for a while.
Then they said that there had been a problem with my Empire account which was closed last week and it had prevented my using Neteller at Party.
I did talk to vp support at Empire after my account was closed last week btw and since then done a withdrawal from Pokernow through Neteller.

Anyway the paypro guy wanted me to do the deposit with him on the phone, I told him I'd do it a bit later, as I had second thoughts about claiming another bonus, but he insisted saying that I'd have to probably call paypro again when I deposit.

I did the deposit with him on the phone and got the POKERACENOW bonus - he said "thank you William"
and that was that.
I just hope I don't have to get paypro approval for all my deposits now.
I have been doing exclusivly bonus's at all party skins lately.

[JoshuaD]

Damn I owned the [censored] out of that bonus. +180$, on top of the bonus, at 6max. Took me like 3 hours.

[splashpot]

cha-ching

[Wyers]

So when Party finds out... they're probably going to cancel it, right?

There is a good chance. Especially when this swarm of North American accounts starts hitting the bonus.

I think I'll let it sit in my account until the weekend. If they don't take it away by then I'll assume we're good and start clearing.

[nsdjoe]

Still working

I'm already cleared and the withdrawl has already been approved.

[jakea6]

Someone should call customer support and ask if this is OK to do, I want to clear it but don't want to risk a freeze to my account or something else that's unwanted.

I just now used POKERACENOW bonus when depositing $700 into Empire (from Neteller) and it DID NOT WORK. This IS for Empire and not Party right? Did it not work for anyone else?

[spacemonkey57]

It just worked for me (non-UK). It'll take me a while to get started on it so hopefully it doesn't get taken away.

[obsidian]

Worked for me. Damn, now I've got $300 at UB to clear, $25 at Eurobet to clear, and $100 at PP to clear. Another good month.

[SoftcoreRevolt]

I'm hoping this isn't true, since their website says nothing about it being UK only. God Party, I came upon this part of your website accidently and thought you were giving me a bonus! What, you don't love me and my massively negative MGR anymore?!?!

12:16 CDT -- Worked!!

[BradleyT]

So of course I try it 3 times and get the "you can't use this deposit method" message and call support and she confirms who I am and then says "what's the exact message you're getting?". Then I try the deposit/bonus again and it works.

Then she does the "we'll send you a preferred player application and give you $10" spiel.

This network is whack. Banned on empire two weeks ago.

[BluEsiNsOuL]

Does it work on all party skins or just for a particular one of them? I read 30 more replys but didn't find a clue.

[HesseJam]

worked here too

[Onaflag]

Like we need yet another "It Worked!" reply since it is all too obvious by now, but it just worked for me. West Coast, 11pm fwiw.

[Synergistic Explosions]

And if I have to play against people like this, then all the better! UTG and UTG+1 have < 5BB going into the hand.

Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (10 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+2 with K/images/graemlins/heart.gif, A/images/graemlins/heart.gif.

<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, CO calls, Hero calls.
Player's note: with the Turn raise I put MP1 on a set turned into a boat/quads on the turn, and sought to call down.

Final Pot: 35.75 BB

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
Hero has Kh Ah (flush, ace high).
MP1 has Ts 6s (full house, sixes full of tens). Who cold-calls T6s preflop twice? Buddy listed.
CO has 5d 8s (straight, eight high) - 0% equity on the flop unless 8h 9h hit runner-runner, leading to a split pot. So very buddy-listed...
Outcome: MP1 wins 35.75 BB.
Hero is still up 35BB after 300 raked hands.
Awwwwwwww yeah.</font>

Cleared the bonus in five hours, up $108 at 1/2.

[LALDAAS]

I withdrew some 500 from paridise before I went to work. I am hoping it hit neteller before I get home tonight 9pm.

100 added to my BR before I go on vaca would be cool. /images/graemlins/cool.gif

[MrBig30]

Yep still on - as of 11.30 am ET

[astarck]

So everyone who has gotten the email has either still been able to clear the bonus and/or keep their already cleared bonus money?

I don't feel like clearing something I have no chance to keep.

Same boat here, I withdrew $400 yesterday from Paradise around 7:00pm and am patiently waiting and checking...still nothing. Hopefully by the time I get home from work in 8 hours it will be there and they won't have shut down this bonus code.

[Rockfish]

Deposited from work yesterday just to see. Lo and behold, had to leave early to go home and clear it.

+50BB at 1/2 6-max and the cashout has already hit neteller.

I was +120 at about 300 hands, and now I started another session after dinner... with 140 hands left, I'm down 70 and the bonus will get barely get me back into profit... sigh...

Imagine finding the fishiest poker tables... but the catch is that all the fish have horseshoes stuck up their asses...

With my luck, Party Poker will remove my bonus at 693 hands.

Wow I hit a bad run at $25NL, more than twice losing my entire buyin to runner, runner. My personal favorite was:

HERO in MP: A /images/graemlins/spade.gif Q /images/graemlins/club.gif raise to 4XBB
BUTTON calls
BB calls
everyone else folds
Flop: 5 /images/graemlins/heart.gif 2 /images/graemlins/club.gif Q /images/graemlins/spade.gif
BB checks
HERO: pushes (I know, not the smartest play)
BUTTON: folds
BB calls (has me covered)
Turn: 6 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
River: 9 /images/graemlins/heart.gif
HERO: Pair of Q's
BB: shows 7 /images/graemlins/heart.gif 8 /images/graemlins/heart.gif wins pot with a straight 5 to 9

His comment was "I hate folding when a smaller stack tries to push me around." I hope to find this guy at my table every game.

FINAL RESULTS:
Lost $3 + $100 bonus = $97 profit
