Default Re: PokerPlex retracts 300 played hand monthly bonus...

You dont think Party revokes bonuses?? They are the kings of revoking bonuses. (not to mention most of the time they dont even have a reload bonus)

The problem is eCash and the crypto sites have a business who's only real business model is they give out bonuses.

Because of that they mainly draw customers that are only there to get the bonuses (they are not their to play or just have fun like many people do on Party), so to protect their profit margin they have to walk this fine line between still giving out the bonuses (otherwise they will lose their entire customer base) but not giving out so much that they dont make money.

PokerPlex because they had one of the easist bonuses to clear was in the worst position because you could spend very little time there collect a decent bonus and then there is no real reason to play there afterwards (after all if you REALLY wanted to play on crypto, how could you not go to another site to collect yet another bonus). So they were probally not doing as well as say Carribean Sun (or whatever they want to be called now) or LittleWoods.

The Crypto sites at the beginning of this year were pretty decent but they slowly became more or less full of mostly bonus whores as the year went by. Especially once they cranked out the $1 raked hand rule since only a break even player who is playing 2/4 or better has even a shot at clearing that.

So depending on what you are talking about I would tend to agree with you, the games at Party are far more enjoyable especially if you are a good player.
