I have a party account but have not played it seriously in a bout 6-months, since I got my skins account.

I keep about $500 in it and try to play 800-1500 hands of PLO8 a month,just to keep it in good standing.

I have not done a reload there in a couple months.

Just now my cell phone rang, with a recorded message from Mike Sexton, telling me to check my e-mail for an amazing one of a kind offer from PP.

I am away from my other e-mail right now.

Anyone know what this is?

I got the same thing, but nothing in my email or anything. Don't really know what it was about, but it woke me up from a perfectly good nap. Damn you Mike Sexton!

My wife just called to tell me we got the same call!

Nothing in my e-mail.

Can't login from work, but I loggeed into the website...nothing there either.

Like you, I play on skins and haven't played on party for more than a month...

Anyone know what this is?

i got the same phone message but no email so i logged on and checked my bonus is absolute junk and am pissed off they wasted my cell minutes for it.

I get a 135$ bonus for clearing 2050 regular party poker points this month. Which at 1/2 equals just over 10000 raked hands which is roughly 76 raked hands for every dollar of bonus released.

Yeah won't be playing at party anytime soon.

Yes, it's probably the Party Points bonus (crappy).

I got the same call and an offer of $220 for earning 2660 points this month. Both an email and a pop-up at Party.

Almost as amazing as their .50 rake at $5.00 pots. Mike told me in chat that this was to fund their new amazing promotions. He actually said to me that this rake increase was going to be paid back many times over in new promotions.

Lets see, now we have crappy or no reload offers, no free rolls, no rakeback. He's right its all amazing.

Yeah I got one of these dealios. Like $225 for 2700 points or so. Which actually seems like it will be incredibly easy to clear (IMO). Just depositing $500 gets 1000 points and then one could play like a couple dozen $33 STTs and be done.

I'm confused as to why everyone is saying it's a bad bonus....seems like 2 nights of easy work to me.

because its regular points only not bonus points you get from deposit bonuses raked days and refering friends.

regular points only come from playing raked hands and tournaments.

Oh....my bad. Well then I guess it's 3 nights (for me) of work.

Still seems pretty good IMO (*especially* since most Party skin sites don't count STTs towards normal bonuses). It will still take fewer than 50 $33s I believe and not many more $22s to work it off.....which is like only 10 or so hours of playing.

Mine works out to 3617 raked hands at 2-4 for $100. Hell, for 383 more raked hands Multi will give me $200. That's how bad this sucks.
