Does anyone here actually still play on Party Poker?
 
I see people still refering to rakeback on Party, but now that it's gone and only available on the skins (Empire, Eurobet, etc.) does anyone even bother playing at Party rather than the skins for anything other than bonuses? If so, why?

Because some of us still haven't set up accounts with rakeback [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img].

I never played with rakeback before. I still don't play with rakeback. I see no reason to leave.

Wait, so you play on the party network without rakeback?

Why would you not play with rakeback? It's basically free money.

To get rakeback? It's really pretty foolish not to.

I did PM someone about rakeback and after a while they got back to me, but I really haven't responded to them. Honestly, I am lazy as they come and haven't found time in my 60 hour work week to deal with it. Maybe when September rolls around and I'm playing seriously I'll do something about it.

I dunno if you know who Elektrik is/was, but I'd like to quote him.

"You are an idiot for not having rakeback."

I'll probably get it eventually, just not immediately.

You're too busy to spend a half an hour to set that up so you just give away a few hundred dollars?

Good plan.

I still haven't seen the definitive posts/info on rakeback being 'gone' from Party. Can someone provide a link? Does this mean if some affiliate says they can give rakeback, they are essentially lying?

I'm sorry. Where in my post did I imply I was an intelligent human being?

You can still get it from the skins. That I know for sure.

Re: Does anyone here actually still play on Party Poker?
 
just wondering if this 23% rakeback I got from an affiliate is good or bogus. I usually play at empire and use Party when I go over 4 tables, but to date have only played a handful.

Re: Does anyone here actually still play on Party Poker?
 
23 seems low. I'm with a 25% affiliate, but I've seen a bunch of other people say they get 27%

Re: Does anyone here actually still play on Party Poker?
 
when all these skins came out i was a bit of a bonuswhore and set up accounts with them immeadiately. so i have accounts with party, empire, intertops, multi, and eurobet. i have been under the impression that i am not eligible for rakeback unless i'm willing to do something fraudulent like setting up an account under a name other than my own. is this correct? i've always been scared to do anything that would be considered fraud against a company that can confiscate a large portion of my money and leave me SOL.

so anyway, yeah i still play at party.

Re: Does anyone here actually still play on Party Poker?
 
I'm getting 30% on empire and I am very happy about it.

Meatmaw 06-17-2005 03:38 PM

Re: Does anyone here actually still play on Party Poker?
 
It's the best i could get from party, where I hear the affiliates get 25% back at most. I get 29% from empire, but can't see how someone gets 30% (like one of the posters in the thread) if the amt they pay the affiliate is 30%. Maybe I don't understand the affiliate deals enough.

I sent to empire an email. They answered me they do not offer any rakeback ...

Re: Does anyone here actually still play on Party Poker?
 
I get 30 as well, without a sweat. Just look around for prodfessional sites, don't even trust anyone just by PMs/IMs.

Re: Does anyone here actually still play on Party Poker?
 
I play $1/$2 LHE on Party almost every day for 2-3 hours - say 15 hours a week - and I usually three table. I do NOT have a rakeback deal because I had not heard of rakeback when I signed up. Can someone tell me approx how much I could make in rakeback? I know I should do it but what's it really worth?

TheTimeIsUp 06-17-2005 08:05 PM

Re: Does anyone here actually still play on Party Poker?
 
250 a month about.
