1000$ PokerRoom bonus???
 

Just got an e-mail from PokerRoom since I haven't logged in there in..well..forever.

They say they've put 1000$ in my account, and all I have to do is play off 4000 player points by December 4th.

I play 3/6 and 5/10SH. Is this possible? How many hours is this? Did anyone else get this e-mail?

Re: 1000$ PokerRoom bonus???
 

without doing any math I'm 99.99% certain you will pay well over $1k in rake doing this. But hey, free $ (with bonus restrictions) is free $ (with bonus restrictions)

Re: 1000$ PokerRoom bonus???
 

I just got it too.

What's the easiest legal way (not chip dumping) to clear this real fast?. I was thinking playing as a poker sticky?.

Homer are you there?.

Not by a whole lot though: if you're playing full 5-max tables, $1k in rake is 3500 points. It requires substantially less than $1k in full ring.

I hope they send me one of these.

damn...account specific and I'm not one of the chosen

Re: 1000$ PokerRoom bonus???
 

I don't see the $1000 anywhere in my account, after receiving the email. This may be a scam of some sort.

I received it today, but find at my account only $100. Interesting joke.

Re: 1000$ PokerRoom bonus???
 

Hmm a poker sticky. It would be fun to take that $1000 and play some high stakes to see if you could run it up a bit.

Somehow I have a feeling it doesn't work like that.

And who cares if you'll pay $1000 in rake? It would be like playing WITHOUT rake.

STOP!

These e-mails are the unfortunate result of a “division by 100” error in an e-mail template. The numbers (both the dollar amount and the Player Points) in all of these e-mails should be divided by 100. As I’m typing this a correction and apology e-mail is in the works.

So, to summarize:
- $10, not $1,000
- 40 Player Points, not 4,000 Player Points.
- Small promotion, not totally enormous promotion.

Oh, and it’s now 4 days left.

Mistakes are OK.

What I like is that this is a 4X bonus. This is good, considering how ridiculous your new rake structure is for low limits. I might play there some if you continue some of these 4x bonuses, but your 7x or 10x bonuses will never again be touched by me (the rake kills any value they might have had).

I laugh cause Rod and Todd are mods there

hahaha "Rod, Todd, this is God"

Re: 1000$ PokerRoom bonus???
 

I love when a site rep stops by and posts something pertinent to one situation they get gang raped for 400 other problems or gripes about their site.

Of course everyone who posts is always right, and the sites in question who post, well just suck.

The reps should just be Todd & NimRod.

Like seriously, would it be asking too much for Todd, Nimrod and company to at least read the email they write before they send it out? I don't see why an email template has caused a division error. What division do you have to do? You write 2 or 3 numbers. $10, 40 points, Nov xx. What kind of template do you need for this? You arent kidding anyone where you needed anything besides some goof-off who can type 3 consecutive sentences. This isnt a number problem or anything thats user specific like how Party botched the $12560 for 180 points thing.

Your goal was to send out an email simply enticing people to get $10. You can't even get that right. There is no excuse for such an email. Good job Nimrod.

Give me one of these and I'll come back* to PokerRoom.






And by "come back" I mean I'll run the ten bucks up to some absurd amount and cash out again. But you'll get well more than $10 in rake out of it.

Re: 1000$ PokerRoom bonus???
 

Seeing as you seem to know all the ins and out at PR, Is there any reson to play there as opposed to one of the skins?
