Party Poker Reload

[mojobluesman]

I haven't seen a Party Poker reload bonus in over a month. Have they discontinued them?

You missed it. The bonus is now dead.

Many people are also getting a pop up along the lines of: 'Earn x Party Points by a certain date, and get $y,' so if you haven't logged into your Party account for a while, it may be worth checking.

Standard disclaimer: I'm not trying to be rude since I answered your question, but many people would appreciate it if you used the search function before you asked question like this. The Party bonus I linked you to is discussed in 4 or 5 thread in the first few pages of the Internet Bonuses forum.

Can you maybee use an '?' in your subject line?

My account says "earn 220 Regular Party Points" for $10 and 450 for $30.

What is the formula for earnings Regular Party Point?

20 raked hands equals ONE point

Are you saying I have to play 4400 rakes hands for $10?

That can't be right....can it?

The rate depends on the stakes you play, and details are on Party's website. 20 hands of 3/6 or 5/10 gives you 12 points, while 20 hands of 2/4 gives you 8 points. I think 1/2 gives 4 points for 20 hands, but don't really know.

Here is the list straight from Party:

All No Limit and Pot Limit Tables 4 PP for every 20 raked hands
All $.5/$1 and $1/$2 Tables 4 PP for every 20 raked hands
All $2/$4 Tables 6 PP for every 20 raked hands
All $3/$6 and $5/$10 Non Jackpot Tables 12 PP for every 20 raked hands
All $3/$6 and $5/$10 Jackpot Tables 15 PP for every 20 raked hands
All $10/$20, $15/$30, $20/$40 and $30/$60 Non Jackpot Tables 18 PP for every 20 raked hands
All $10/$20 and $15/$30 Jackpot Tables 24 PP for every 20 raked hands
All $50/$100 and $100/$200 Non Jackpot Table 28 PP for every 20 raked hands

So, if you play 1/2, that's 220/4*20 = 1100 raked hands for $10. At 2/4, that would be 733 hands. Silver level earns points 1.5 times faster, gold 2x.

Obviously, the big bump occuurs at 3/6. If you can play that level, it's 366 hands, at silver it's 244 hands. Still not great, sucky even, but you can see it's really geared for 3/6 and above, and people who have played a lot of hands. Or made a lot of deposits, as others have detailed.

I don't know, but if you're interested (I have been in the past), I remember it being very easy to find from the 'My Account' screen.

One thing the other posters haven't mentioned is that I think they give out double points during certain hours (kind of like happy hour), and that they give you a bonus if you have 5 (I think) raked days within one week. I think this bonus may be about 200 points or so, so that would go a long ways towards your bonus. Look into it. There's also a monthly thing for 20 (again IIRC) raked days in a month, but that probably won't affect your bonus since you won't have that much time. I think you just need to contribute ANY amount of rake for it to count as a raked day.

Those are bonus points, not regular points. Regular points only to get the bonus. Bonus points will get you an increase in level, however, which can increase your regular point earning rate.
