OMG!! great bonus code on Empire right now! (thanks AEKDBet )

[MrGo]

It would be funny if this was all legit, but they left out that you had to play 2,500 hands on tables $15/$30 +

LOL

Because I don't want to eat the Neteller charge if I'm not gonna have that ginormous bonus waiting for me. I know, penny-pinching, but I'm in college and $500 is a good amount for me. I just don't want to throw my money into a new account unless I'm sure that it's gonna be profitable.

Neteller charges you? They don't charge me. Weird.

Anyways, that said, if you're a winning player then playing 5,000~ hands or so is +EV anyways.

Look, I appreciate that $500 is a lot of money, but the play is virtually risk free and these people sending emails are threatening the deal for others.

And by the way, Neteller shouldn't be charging you to move money between Party and Empire.

Something odd is going on here so I sent them this email to check and see if this is all kosher.

Dear Empire Poker Suport,

It appears as if there is a really large bonus under the code MATCHBONUSEP. It matches 100% up to $500! I didn't get an email or a popup but everyone is going crazy on the boards about this and I wanted to double check with you to make sure this is working as intended. Its not even a signup bonus either it works as a reload too. Please let me know so that I can reload under this code. Thanks,

Mario.

I tryed the code on my first deposit to empire, and nothing showed up in my account. Here is their response to my e-mail:

Thank you for contacting us.

I decided to follow up with them:

Pradeep,

I don't think you understand. It's like you are giving away a free $500 to pretty much anyone. Is this how it's supposed to work? Can I deposit twice under this code? Or do I have to make a fake Empire account under my dog's name? I'd really like to take advantage of this excellent bonus. Thanks!

Mario.

You people have no common sense - you are costing others money

[ElSapo]

I'm assuming this is a joke, and that you didn't actually email this.
