Don't play at Party, find a better option (like Prima i.e.) with a nice and legal rakeback deal.

Unless you are a highroller that needs action on the big tables, prima is not that less fishie, that a nice rakeback deal won't compansate for that - way and beyond.

You are confused - of course you are, thats what they are trying to do.

Look at big banks or major phone companies.

They have thousands of scemes, insurances, do this do that to get a lower rent, air fare rebate, when most ordenary people only want to know what interest they have to pay/phonebill pr/ minute, etc. so they can make a sound comparisen/jugdement.

What you want to know is, what % of my rake do get back - end of story. Bonuspoints : It's laughable.
Play 15000 hands from february 4th to february 19th, between 2pm to 0630pm, when the sun shines.

What if you cant play or you kid gets sick, or you find an occasional nice new little site you wanna play before the fish die out, etc.?? You have a problem. The want to control your playing habits, not with being the best or having the best deal - but with thier rigid point system - that can't even compete with the worst of rakebackdeals.

Granted they got fish, but other rooms has too on small/mid tables incl. SNG's, all where the rake is huge.

They want to make you slaves - only play at party all the time.

In about 2 years the probably sell you a good car-insurance if you play enough.

They are so focussed on growth that they forget to treat the loyal players right.

I you are a resonable small/mid player raking 500$ a month, you sould at least get 25% in rake back, no matter how many fish.

If you buy 2 cars for 10.000 a piece, you don't buy 2000 cars for 9950 a piece, but mayby 7500.

Party doesn't get that, and are gonna get burned unless they change.

They will loose the smart (not loyal) players, of whom they should live, long term. Lesser people will recommend them, before there was only Party, now its: Party is good BUT, no rakeback, messing with small affiliates etc.

For the love of good (until they make a resonable rakeback-deal)

Boykot the PARTY!!!

Other sites can get just as big as party - think about the massive loss they would have if 30 of 2+2'ers closed their account.

For small mid tables and SNG's rakes are huge, and PartyPoints are redicolous compared to rakeback - off course they are - thats way they arfe giving them instead of rakeback - and with all the high IQ people in here are still trying to figure out the system.

There is nothing to figure out.

Don't let them piss on you - cause that's exactly what they are doing.
