Requirements for GET15 bonus
 

Here's the email response I got:

Dear Dave,

Thank you for contacting us.

With reference to your email, to get this GET15bonus make your next deposit
before 25th DEC 2005 to get the bonus in to your bonus account, you are required
to play raked hands 5 times the bonus amount, with in 30 days. To get bonus
released into your real money account.

However, 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 (service fee) is taken out of the pot.
A player is considered to have played a raked hand when cards have been dealt
and the hand has generated at least $0.01 in rake for that player.

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

Thank you for choosing us as your online gaming site!

It's definitely account specific.

The game selection at Empire began to fall apart last summer as the Party split occurred. It really does stink, both in number of tables and tightness, IMHO.

So is it worth the time?

At 5x raked hands I dont see how it ever could be a waste of time

Re: Empire Bonus
 

Yes, at 5X it's worth it.

I have a 50 % bonus up to $100 as pop up.
No clue what I need to play to get that bonus though. Maybe it's 10000000 raked hands.

Just deposited $200 and got my $100 bonus pending.
Need to play 500 hands and the games are very soft.
Easiest bonus to clear ever!

Re: Empire Bonus
 

i just tried the max100 code to no avail. i'll wait a night to see if it comes in later....

Re: Empire Bonus
 

Has anyone ever tried entering the code that didn't get the pop up? Or is that taboo?

Re: Empire Bonus
 

Not really taboo...if you don't qualify, you just won't get it.

What may work better is an email to info@empirepoker.com asking them to give you the bonus. They've gotta be hurting based on the player base they've lost!

Just a thought...
