Default I\'m going to try a site that doesn\'t charge me to deposit

I've been meaning to try a new site since this whole break of partypoker.com. Unfortunately, my state (Maryland) has this whole problem where Neteller is not doing business in my state. So I'm looking to deposit on some new site which will not cost me a penny to deposit.

Firepay costs me $3.99, I'd rather not =\

Default Charge you to deposit ? Hell, We\'ll give you a bonus too

Truepoker picks up the Visa or Mastercard cost of your deposit. We are also offering a first time deposit bonus. (Neither offer makes us unique among sites, but we are always looking for new business from folks who believe the Party Is Over for them.)

At the risk of being accused of spamming I will answer your direct question; Truepoker offers an everyday 30% first time bonus, no bonus code required, paid at $10 per hundred raked hands played. (Micro limits, where the rake is less than $1.00, are counted as fractional raked hands.)

Thanks for the info, I'll have to look at the website, our bonus should be prominently featured so everyone can see it.

I have always liked Truepoker's unique approach. You know if you just simply came out with a high volume players club, where for example say after so many hands a month you get so much of your rake back you would win alot of customers, or if you offered frequent bonuses like Absolute or a bonus with every deposit like some sites are doing now I am sure you would get some more players and generate more profits.

We first looked at a high volume program when we were trying out ODoyle's WSOP effort. We are concentrating on building a player base, beginning with micro-limits and up. We can then look to "feed" enough high volume players to support such a program.

We do welcome players of all volumes of course and will accomodate high volume players on an ad hoc basis. If you need something, email me at management@truepoker.com.

While we are at it, there is also a problem with the 4 free Newbie SitnGo's. The welcome email says you get 4. After playing one the software told me I was unable to register for another as I had used all of my entries. This happened to others I know as well.

Thanks,
Dave

Not to kill the buzz of TruePoker, but i have playing at PacificPoker.com. There is no charge for a deposit there. I deposit via my checking account and never get charged extra. I agree though, that PartyPoker is over. Hate the site.
