Why I Love Absolute Poker

The free money. Besides $2400 (or more) in monthly bonuses they just called and a host put $35 into my immediate account because they like me.

So Empire who closed my $50 account can bite me.

Absolute Poker is really beginning to worry Party I think. As the numbers grow at Absolute and players are becoming aware of the constant reloads and available legal rakeback which can be used together with no penalty, Party is having a hard time eliminating their monthly reloads as they wish to.

Party's answer to this was then to sneak in a new rake increase without announcement.

Hmmmm, makes you wonder if Party wants ALL of our money in the end before we bust out?

Pleeease send me some of what you smoked before posting this.

Did you read the big thread on Party's profits? $391 million last year. Absolute offers more bonuses than anyone here can clear and their total REVENUE isn't a third of that. The only site capable of worrying Party is Stars.

Just before Paradise Poker lost its lead, people were saying how the games at Paradise had really tightened up. I see people saying the same things about Party right now. The grinders started to leave Paradise just as they are starting to leave Party. They are going to places like Absolute or Pokerroom, and helping them achieve critical mass.

Its a fast changing industry. Three or Four years from now, who knows whats going to happen. Its possible PokerMountain might be number 1.

How are the games at Absolute? If their Neteller is fast and they don't ask for SS or anything I'll give it a shot.

You should give it a shot. I personally do better there than at most of the sites I play.

Getting rake back and earning a bonus at the same time is very nice also. Be sure to find an affiliate for the rake back before you join.

They have some nice promotions also.

I have been getting paid to Neteller in less than 24 hours.

I have never heard of them asking for any type of ID to cash out.

What's the best affiliate? pm me.

Just check the ads to the right of you here. Theres one that says rake review preview or something that lists many of the rake backers.

I know you can get at least 27.5% back from Absolute, on top of the bonus you'll be working off.

I'm getting interested...

350$ sign-up bonus + 500$ neteller bonus + rakeback = [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Unfortunately I signed up before I knew about rakeback and now I don't think I can do it. But they give away so much $$ it may not matter. (Thoough I would have liked rakeback [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img])
