Question about Absolute ??

busguy · #1 07-15-2004, 02:07 AM

I am looking to take advantage of the 35% deposit bonus they have going on. When I checked the "terms and conditions" on their web-site it talks about deposit + bonus money having to stay in the account for 30 days after the bonus has been cleared before it can be withdrawn. It specifically says that this restriction applies to deposits and bonuses earned prior to June 14,2004.

My question is whether this restriction is currently applicable as well. I checked with customer service but got the standard vague responce without any further clarification.

Anyone have any insight ?? MicroBob ??

goodness...people are asking for me by name now.

i am guessing you are looking at some old portion of their website that hasn't been updated (or maybe you went to their website previously and it you are going back to an old page by revisiting because of some cookie-something-or-other and it wasnt updated).

anyway...this is the OLD way that they USED to do it. they don't do it that way anymore.

the bonus is cleared just like paradise.

you have to wait 48 hours after you deposit before you are allowed to cash-out....after that their cash-outs are really quick. you are allowed to cash-out before you even play 1 hand of the bonus.

definitely take advantage of the July 1st-deposit offer.

You know bob, I dunno if I would go off telling people to play at absolute.

I deposited 100 bucks there a couple days ago and it took me almost a week, today actually to clear the bonus. I actually ended up down 50.00 by the time I cleared the bonus.

The site, and the bonus kinda suck in my opinion.

What was the problem. Tight tables ?. Lack of players ? What limits ??

Thanks for any input.

I played 1/2 limit holdem. The problem, is that there are hardly any games going. You really only have a few tables of each limit going so table section kinda sucks.

Also, there are a few fish there, but a lot of decent players as well. I dunno I just did not like it at all. The software seemed slow and bulky plus the graphics were poor. Furthermore, the bonus is tough to clear compared to party/empire's policy.
