[crosse91]

why do i have twice as much points for the same amount of money? That [censored] sucks.

[MycroftX]

I don't get their system, I cashed out about a week or two ago too, and I was given a code.

I only ever do bonuses, I've done three, and not a single hand extra.

[Swedebubba]

I guess they even seperated the bottom of the sh.it pile. Very Pathetic!

[vabogee]

got the same thing...bye bye party poker. was nice knowing you.

[groo]

lol....425 points for $35.....if my math is correct that is $35 for 2125 raked hands at .5/1 or 1/2, but step up to 2/4 and it's ONLY 1417 raked hands....wow, i should get right on this.

I got 30% to $100.

[OldLearner]

Mine was $135 for 1180 points earned betwen Oct 5 and Oct 30.

I just looked at my bonus point accruals for September and when I deposited $1000 for the Sept Bonus Reload, I was given 1000 Party Points.

I wonder if I can deposit $1000, get the 1000 or so Party points, and have 180 points left to clear to get the $135.

Sounds pretty good if that is the case.

[captain_swing]

Don't think so. "Regular points" are only from cash games and tournies. "Bonus points" are given for deposits.

[crosse91]

is that even possible?

got an offer of $235 for 2200 party points. does anyone know how many raked hands this is for 3/6?

[OldLearner]

Your right. It says 1180 Regular points.

Not so good.

Nope that wont work. You need regular points and depositing gives you bonus points.

Also I got $30 for 900 regular points. So I think that comes out to a 150x playthrough at 1/2.

900 hands / $30 = 30x if it was raked hands. You need 5 raked hands per point at 1/2.
30 * 5 = 150x playthrough.

Is that right?

[BigBiceps]

I wonder what the algorithm is to determine which bonus you get, maybe we could figure it out based on:
1) type of bonus
2) current funds in account
3) hands played over the last month
4) rake generated over the last month
5) limit played

Any other parameters? It would be interesting to see how they are computing it. I am not on my poker computer right now, but I will check when I can.

I wonder if the type of bonus is related to whether your DOOM SWITCH is turned on or off.

[BigBiceps]

For 3/6 you earn 12 points per 20 raked hands in a day. Note, it is regular points so if you get bonus points for playing during certain hours, those don't count.

So that is 3666 raked hands. Note that any fraction of 20 raked hands in a day you don't get any points for those.

I can't find anything to clear it up any further, but if it is what it seems, it is really bad for NL players. NL players get 4 points per 20 raked hands. That means 14350 raked hands for your 550 bucks.

[HoldEmKillah]

I just read on party's site that all NL&PL tables you get 4 pts for every 20 raked hands. So, for me, that's 14,850 RAKED hands needed to clear the $530...no thanks. I'd get $1100 in rakeback from my other skin. They probably threw me this bone since I used to play a ton on party before I moved. Now I only bonus whore there (when it's worth my time).

[jrz1972]

Does anybody else think this is asinine and represents another step toward Party's eventual decline?

Personally, I strongly dislike not knowing whether I'm getting a reload or not (I'm at work) and the suspense of knowing exactly what it'll be.

so no $150 bonuses this time out just different percentages of deposit? BAH

[Swedebubba]

This point bonus has me wondering if they are targeting the points to mainly NL players.

[Torr]

I play limit exclusively from .5/1 to 2/4 mostly full ring with some 6 max thrown in and the occassional $10+1 SNG. 90% of my play during any month at party is during their reload bonus.

I still don't know how they think I am going to do 2170 points for $170. Maybe I owe them a lot of rake?

[OldLearner]

I got the Regular Points email and I am a NL player so the bonus isn't very attractive.

I play Party

- during the deposit bonus periods
- for SNG qualifiers into their big weekend tourneys

I play my rakeback skin (Euro) the rest of the time.

I thought the vig I give them in the SNG satellites would keep me from being labelled a bonuswhore.

Who knows if they used a bonus selection algorithm any more sophisticated than every 3rd account gets this bonus.....

I thought i was unlucky wit the 15% up to $100 7x....until I read everyone elses "bonus."

Knowing the result of the empire raffle, I do beleive that they picked every 3rd account or something like that to get the bonus.

Does this have anything to do with your category (blue, silver, gold).

Is it worth spending 15000 points to become a "silver" player? Or is category a non-factor?

[timprov]

I got the points "offer". I always clear at 2/4 BBJ, so there's no way I'm -MGR.

Needless to say, I'll be skipping this one.

am i right in saying that 1530 points at 1/2 limit means 7650 raked hands?

if i am right, then its been emotional but.....farewell my sweety pie. /images/graemlins/frown.gif /images/graemlins/frown.gif

[jrz1972]

It's 4 points for every 20 raked, right, so you'd need 383 sets of 20 = 7660 raked hands.

And that's only if you don't have any "spare" raked hands in any session. Remember that you don't get partial points for playing, say, 30 raked hands; those extra 10 hands go down the memory hole. So unless you time your play extremely well, it's probably much more than either of us are estimating.

I was just offered $215 for 4500 points. At that rate I will have to play somewhere along the lines of 15000 raked hands five or take. Yeah right thats going to happen. Oh well. Anyone know if the BONUSOCT code works for everyone?

I think it may be how often you play on the site and what stakes. They seem to attract people who play less with the % deposit, and people who played there semi-regularly with the stupid point system. Also, it looks like the higher-stakes players got worse bonuses. The silver member who got like 4.5k to clear $160, and I wonder what stakes the guy who got 7.5k to clear $185 plays.

[BigBrother]

I've been playing only on Party (Yes, I'm a moron) and I was offered 9235 points for $755 in cash.

I ran my PT numbers from last month thru PokerGrapher RB calculator and basically it works out to they are offering me about 24-25% RB if I exceed last month's number by about 10%.

That doesn't seem bad to me, considering Party has always been 100% reliable with instant Neteller cashouts on demand, and Neteller to my checking account is reliably 2 days or less.

Since it's important to me right now to keep my bankroll tiny and accessible, this looks like a reasonable alternative to tying up a bunch of cash at Eurobet (where I've heard cashouts can be a hassle) and the uncertainty of an affiliate for RB payout.

And then there's the whole BBJ tables thing...

I'll probably try it out this month.

I don't know if the bubble's about to burst. People who actively look for reload bonuses (or use them for that matter) are very few. It might actually make Party a bigger fishfest, as bonuswhores won't be clogging it up.

I definetly know none of my friends look for bonuses, they just play on party, so getting that "140000 points for $40" will look like a great deal to them.

[jrz1972]

I got the worst offer I've seen so far: $35 for 1275 points.

I'm kind of ticked about this, so I sent Party the following email:

[ QUOTE ]
This month I received an offer to get $35 in exchange for earning 1275 Party Points. I normally do not earn this many points in a month, so this offer is worthless to me.

However, it has come to my attention that many other PartyPoker customers received regular reloads instead (using the TAKEIT or BONUSOCT codes). This year, I have played approximately 70,000 hands at your site, making me a loyal customer. I would like to know why I wasn't offered a reload bonus and whether there will be a general reload offer later this month.

Thank you.

Sounds pretty good if that is the case.

I just looked at my bonus point accruals for September and when I deposited $1000 for the Sept Bonus Reload, I was given 1000 Party Points.

I wonder if I can deposit $1000, get the 1000 or so Party points, and have 180 points left to clear to get the $135.

Sounds pretty good if that is the case.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think that will work. Actually, you should get 1000 points for each deposit 500 or above according to there website /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[/ QUOTE ]

Those are bonus points you get. You need "regular points" to clear this. Much harder.

[ QUOTE ]
This point bonus has me wondering if they are targeting the points to mainly NL players.

[/ QUOTE ]

I play mostly NL and have also gotten a crappy deal, $335 for something like 3500 points, which would translate to more hand than I play in a month by far.

[ QUOTE ]
It looks like the effects of Party going public have taken root. Im really startin to like the Cryptos and Prima. I was excited about getting home and seeing if I got a bonus offer, but after reading this thread, Im almost dreading it. I wonder if these bonuses were based on peoples winrates. The more successful players given less appealing deals, while less successful players getting easier bonuses. Just a thought, I could see the business sense in them doing something like that.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, I'll admit that on the main party skin (which I only bwhore on), I think I am ever so slightly in the red (not counting bonuses).

[ QUOTE ]
I got the worst offer I've seen so far: $35 for 1275 points.

I'm kind of ticked about this, so I sent Party the following email:

[ QUOTE ]
This month I received an offer to get $35 in exchange for earning 1275 Party Points. I normally do not earn this many points in a month, so this offer is worthless to me.

However, it has come to my attention that many other PartyPoker customers received regular reloads instead (using the TAKEIT or BONUSOCT codes). This year, I have played approximately 70,000 hands at your site, making me a loyal customer. I would like to know why I wasn't offered a reload bonus and whether there will be a general reload offer later this month.

Thank you.

[/ QUOTE ]

I know this won't achieve anything, but I thought I'd post it here anyway. I will update this tomorrow with whatever broken-English response I get. Should be good for a laugh. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Party reply: Dear Thank You,

Cashouts are processed on a daily term when received thereto and are usually required 24 hours to complete cashout process. If you do not see your cash within 24 hours you will be contacted me back feel free.

In the meantime, we hope you continually to enjoy the games offered from Party Poker.

Did anyone get a 5x bonus? Mine was MKMYDAY or something like (30% to $100) that but I can't connect to the "bonus account" webpage. Upon emailing them, their reply to me waas that i needed to play 500 raked hands to clear the $100.

[boose_bagina]

i don't understand why I recieve that same amount of PP points for playing on 1000NL as I would on 25NL.

I worked out my bonus and it comes to $16 / 8 hr session 4-tabling. oh my.

I am a silver and got an offer of $45 for 1380 regular points,So I would say it is not worth it.

Oh Well back to Multi and only 28000 hands to go!

anyone figure out the rate to clear these in SNGs?

[Freudian]

Got nothing. After two years of bonus whoring I think they have given up on me. As they should because I dislike Party with intensity and will never play there without a juicy bonus.

Since I don't enjoy cash games all that much I don't mind not having to do bonuses but I am going to miss the satisfaction of knowing that I am a -MGR player for them each month.

From Wednesday, October 5 through Monday, October 31, 2005, you can earn 2995 Regular Party Points and receive 120 dollars in cash! You won’t have to sweat it out as this is less play than what you have done before at PartyPoker.com. /images/graemlins/mad.gif

[/ QUOTE ]

Not usually, nope. 1275 points = 319 sets of 20 raked hands = 6380 raked hands. At my level, that would be about 13,000 total hands. (Technically, it would be a few thousand more than that, because I'd invariably waste some raked hands by not playing them exactly in increments of 20).

If I played every single hand this month exclusively at Party, I *might* be able to play that many hands. For $35 I'm not really interested in finding out.

I think "marketing department" = "random number generator."

$95 for 840 points.

Not the worst (not even close), but probably not enough to make me want to do it.

edit: at 3/6 BBJ, the highest level I've ever played at Party, that'd be about a 12x playthrough.

[ QUOTE ]

I recieved an reply E-mail this morning from you at party poker in reguards to my
request:

In response to your e-mail, we would like to inform you that currently we do not
have any bonus promotions on our site.

This is false! and bad business!

Why would I be told no bonuses are on yor site after I have told you several of
my peers have shared their experinaces with me.

Here they are:

Use the Bonus Code "BONUSOCT" when you make your next deposit before 12-OCT-05
23:59 EST and get 20% extra (Max $100) in your bonus account. Restrictions
apply.


Use the Bonus Code "MKMYDAY" when you make your next deposit before 12-OCT-05
23:59 EST and get 30% extra (Max $100) in your bonus account. Restrictions
apply.

Use the Bonus Code "TAKEIT" when you make your next deposit before 12-OCT-05
23:59 EST and get 25% extra (Max $200) in your bonus account. Restrictions
apply.

In fact here is a url link to the bonus you are offering
http://www.partypoker.com/offers/deposit_25_100_bonus_takeit.htm

"YOURCHANCE" for 15% up to $100


This I find very upsetting. Not so much as to the fact as I didn't recieve a
bonus promotion but to the fact Party Poker contacts me with dribble claiming
there is no bonuses on their site after I have presented facts thus explaing my
inqurey.

So again If possible would really enjoy a bonus PROMOTION! THAT YOU HAVE
GOING ON THIS MONTH!

If I none of these several promotions party poker has going for many costomers
will apply to my account then I guess we can just go ahead and cancel my account
with party poker.

[ QUOTE ]
Dear Player,

Thank you for contacting us.

I understand your concern and apologize for the inconvenience faced by you.
However, would like to inform you that these bonus promotions have been offered
to select players chosen by our marketing team. PartyPoker.com offers special
promotions to different sets of players from time to time. You will be informed
of any promotion available to you via email.

You are a valuable player for us and we would like you to continue playing at
our site. We would like to offer you a 20% bonus upto a maximum of $100.00 on
your next deposit. This would be a release restricted bonus.

You are required to play certain number of raked hands for the bonus to be
released to your Real Money account. Once you make your next deposit please feel
free to get back to us, so that we can issue the bonus to your bonus account.

You can always check the status of your bonus and how many raked hands you have
played by clicking on the 'Cashier' option on our Lobby, and then on 'Bonus
Account'.

A raked hand is any hand in which a rake (house drop) is taken out of the pot. A
player is considered to have played a raked hand if he or she has contributed 1
cent or more in rake in that hand.

To accumulate raked hands, just participate in hands (any live game, any limit)
where a rake is taken. The buy-in' for tournaments does not contribute to your
accumulated raked hands. Furthermore, as there is no rake taken in tournament
hands, you cannot obtain raked hands through tournaments. The amount of rake
collected appears as a small chip stack next to the dealer tray.

For more information about our rake structure please check out the following URL
from our website:

http://www.partypoker.com/games/rake.html

Note: Please do not disclose your password to any individual/organization
claiming to represent us. We will never ask you for the password to your
account. If you receive any email or phone call from anyone requesting you to
provide your password please report it to us immediately.

I got the same one. One day after I'd made my first Party deposit in months. I wrote back and asked if there was any chance I could get the bonus credited to that deposit, but no answer. I've withdrawn to go play elsewhere; is it possible to redeposit in a few days and get the bonus, or am I screwed on this one?

-Mike

[JerseyTom]

I got an offer of $125 for 1450 points. I'm pretty much just a low-limit player, so this means at a minimum:

@ .5/1 or 1/2
(1450 points) * (20 hands/4 points) ~= 7250 raked hands

@ 2/4
(1450 points) * (20 hands/6 points) ~= 4835 raked hands

So even in the best case, I'm looking at 2.58 cents per raked hand. No thanks.

Maybe I'll complain via email and see if they cave and give me a more "traditional" bonus...

Party is looking at regular players' past history over the last few months and basically offering you a rakeback of somewhere between 20-25% if you reach a target level of activity that is similar to what you have done in the past.

Your number is higher because you have played more at Party than most who post here. Most who post here play on a skin with RB and only whore the Party reload bonus, or they just don't play much on the Party network (AND whore the Party reload bonus).

For someone who plays a lot at Party already, this month's bonus is a good deal if you are going to play that much anyway. You can estimate how many hands it will take by looking at the party points section of the Party Account site:

Obviously this sucks compared to the free $100 or $200 for a couple thousand hands, but it looks like good marketing sense from Party: A loyalty rewards program that actually rewards customers proportional to their value, AND incentivizes customers to reach a target level.

And I wasn't going to say it, but it probably only applies to a few players and they'll probably do the math anyway: The high volume 'semi-pro' players might want to look into the BBJ tables and see if it makes sense to regularly do a few hands at Paaaarty BBJ and get the Rewards bonus to offset their loss in RB.

I havent played more than 200 hands on party in the last 6 months, I play at empire.

[BigBrother]

ummm, in that case don't know what to say. I've been playing there a lot and my offer was similar to yours.

Perhaps back when you DID play at Party you played a lot (your number looks like about 15-20K hands of $2/4) and they are trying to entice you to come back.

Either that or they got you confused with someone else?

I got the Octbonus code for 20% up to 100$

I haven't played there in a couple of months and when I did I just whored and left.

Seems odd

How are people crunching the numbers to compare it to rakeback. Everyway I do, it comes up almost even. I need 7250 to get 420. I play 3/6 6max.

If you think earning 4275 points for $120 = 20-25% rb, you are delusional.

4275 points / 9 points per 20 raked hands (at 2/4 level for me) * 20 raked hands = 9500 raked hands

I never said I thought that and I am not delusional.

I did say that 5630 points for $640, and that my personal offer for $755 worked out to about that.

To know for sure what % you are getting you need to figure if you are earning points at the blue, silver, or gold rate.

If 4000+ points for 120 is your personal offer and you are at the blue rate then I'd say Party screwed up and you might get some satisfaction if you emailed them. Seems like I saw further up in this thread that somebody got a standard 20% up to $100 bonus in response to his complaint.

Holy [censored], I own all of you guys!!!

Has anyone figured out how they assign the bonus amounts because they are offering me $1400. Has anyone else been offered this much?

I'm only at the blue level, and the most I usually play is 2 tables of 2/4, and I'll have it cleared in a week easily.

Can anybody confirm that none of these bonuses work unless you were given the popup for the bonus?

I initally didn't receive an offer. So I sent an e-mail about how they need to offer incentives to their high volume players to keep them. I explained that I have accounts at many other sites where I can get bonuses, and I can make an extra $10/hr from these, so Party should offer me something if they want me to play there.

Today I got the YOURCHANCE bonus code offer.

They seem to be staggering their offers (which I completely approve of - keep the tables loose).

So your bonus is probably not due to your e-mail.

[Escape]

No thx party. Rake back alone is worth more than their crappy bonus.

Alright, this sucks:

From Wednesday, October 5 through Monday, October 31, 2005, you can earn 18380 Regular Party Points and receive 595 dollars in cash! You won’t have to sweat it out as this is less play than what you have done before at PartyPoker.com.

Look at it this way: you're gonna be set with flip-flops for life!

Got the 25% upto $100 bonus, and I haven't played on Party since their last reload, holding a whole $0.61 in my account. Seems I got lucky! Another hour or two multi-tabling and it'll be cleared. Lovely.

[sexdrugsmoney]

Does anyone know if you complete one bonus like TAKEIT, what happens if you make another deposit using MKMYDAY? (do you get another bonus?)

It's interesting. They seem to be tiering their client base. Which we already knew with the color codes.

I'm 0 for 2 with bonuses.

They just don't want me.
