Default Re: Empire- \"FREE\" $10????

Ya, this is defnitely a sneaky move by Empire. It is a way to make next weeks reload have more of a playthrough. It obviously isn't a big deal if you are going to play the 300 hands anyhow, but it sure is a sneaky way to do things. Can't complain over a free $10 bucks and can't really complain that they want to make you really play at their site to give you free money. I just wish they didn't get so clever [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

ooh. good question. also, it says that if we aren't done by the 11th we lose it. so... wait til the last day (10th) to do the april reload. don't play til the 12th at all, and you'll be fine- with 4-5 days still to clear the good one.
unless they get sneaky and extend the $10 one. possible?

This would not work. The bonus would still appear in your bonus account.

FWIW I signed up at Empire over two years ago and the only time I have played there is during reload periods and I did not get an extra $10 put in my account. So I guess I'm good to go for the reload next week. Don't hate [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I'm in the same position. I think they lost my e-mail address.

This is mathematically very similar to the Interpoker reload changes for this month. 300 hands can be played in 1.5 hrs. You're going to play anyway, right? It's not like this is going to take you away from another bonus for long enough to prevent you from getting it. It's overlay, albeit only ~$6.50 an hour at 200 hands/hr and you're playing at the biggest aquarium of them all.

I don't get all the complaining about bonuses.

Go forth and play.

Edit: Oh yeah, for what it's worth I didn't get it and I would be happy to.

well, some of us do other things beyond poker and therefore only play maybe 20 hrs/week. i could play more if i wasn't constantly reading this forum. oh well. so you can only do so many bonuses in 80 hrs. when your computer can't handle more than 4 tabling. we'd rather do other bonuses than a 30x one.
