Completely untrue. I have generated over 150K party points over the last year and a half just by depositing $3K in $500 incremenents every 8 days.

Hello, thank you for your quick reply. I do often cash out after purchasing,
though I try to wait at least a week or so. I play poker for a living, and I
try to keep my funds available as much as possible. I have no problem
keeping the money in there for whatever specified time you desire. I was
just unaware that there was a specific length required. For future
reference, how long should I wait before I am able to cash out?

Once again, I appreciate your quick and courteous reply,

I stand corrected. Maybe its because I play at least an orbit of limit each day for the 200 pts per week/500 pts per month thing, but I rarely play 25% of my deposits worth.

I didn't know that they would do this.

Regardless, I have been 'recycling' the same money back and forth every 8 days for several months now (sometimes with limited play...sometimes with more).

My biggest obstacle is that I don't want to fax them my ID stuff...thus I'm limited to $3k per week and $10k per month.
But even maxing-out my weekly and monthly ($500 at a time...all on the same day of course) still is decent for an extra 6k points per week approximately (1k points for each $500 deposit).

I've never had any problems with them for doing this.
