ParadisePoker is not doing what they suppose to do.

Well, I am not bonus shopper but I should get what I suppose to get.

To get the bonus, We have to follow their rules, which is..
For each raked game that you are dealt cards (minimum rake $0.25), you will earn one point.

I did so many hands, ranks whatever you call it. But they are not giving me right point.

I asked them many times about this question, but they are just sending the link of the their website.

Any1 in here play there?

Have you tried calling them?

---FISH---

DDz00 · Mar 7, 2005

Nah.

Hate calling.

lol.

it is not big deal. But i think everyone should know this.
Maybe I am mis calculating.

Check your self.

easy to calculate. just try one or two rank with 25 more.
and check the point.

Personally, I try and keep very close tabs on things such as this with pokerrooms so I know where I sit on bonuses, promos, etc.

Please, give them a call.

DDz00 · Mar 7, 2005

Got it.

Here is the reason why i did't get the bonus point
This is their answer..

"Hi
To earn one point against your pending bonus a $10 pot will give you 1 bonus point. A $5 will earn 0.5 bonus points."

WTF, where did this rules come from?

Never heard this rules..

I have yet to play at a couple giant rooms.........Ultimate and PokerStars.

Having said that, I like playing at virtually all the other ones for one reason or another.

Just joined Bowmans yesterday and like what I see early on.

Have always enjoyed WSEX and their software.

Have not had overly good luck at Partypoker either fwiw.

Truepoker, Pokerworld, and Absolute are some rooms that I like that do not get much publicity.

Have not played at PlanetPoker in months and months.

I will be much better adversed to answer your question later in the year as I am starting to attack all the various rooms.

Poker Stars and UltimateBet both have great software for both tournament and ring games. But the players are nowhere near Party-soft.

The Prima network also has good software. Your Bet365 account will work at their Prima skin, but the best sign-up bonus is at The Gaming Club. Prima lets you have an account at each of their network sites (with the same screen name so you can't end up playing yourself at three or four sites), but you only get one sign-up bonus, An added benefit is the high number of Europeans who play there which means the games are good starting at about noon EST. My experience is that the Europeans (especially the Norwegians) are great NL and PL players. I stick with the structured limit games; I have "learned my place."

The cryptologic sites are also European, with the same benefits and pitfalls.

NICE!!! I love the mentality.

Doyle's Room seems attractive with their nice bonus and decent size, but how can they rationalize their policy(at least they list it on their web site)of making people wait at least 72 hours even for a neteller pay-out when none of the others do that I know of?

wolfie_cr · Mar 7, 2005

That's only the initial withdrawal while all security checks are put in place. Any cardroom that doesn't have proper security checks against fraud will go bust really quickly.

After the first withdrawal is processed withdrawals take about 24 hours.

DDz00 · Mar 7, 2005

Dolyes rooms/Golden Palace Poker HAS a delay cash out problem.

It takes at least 2 days to get to your Neteller account. I do not like to wait but at least they pay. lol Still I don't like it.

Found another problem with Paradise Poker. We can't withdraw cents.
WhY?
Cents are money also. don't like them.

Oh~~ my cents. I won't see my cents again.
:lolBIG:

wolfie_cr · Mar 7, 2005

Doylesroom support and cashouts are completely independent of Golden Palace

Doylesroom also has the added benefit that if you have a problem you just let me know and I will get it taken care off immediately

DDz00 · Mar 7, 2005

Wolfie_cr,

Really? I thought you guys are using same network.

I had a chat with one of managers and saying "i better NOT open an account with Doyle's rooms. Because I already have an account with Golden Palace"

It means, same company like Party Poker and Empire.

Can I have an account at Doyle's? I like the bonus.

Let me know if it is okay.

wolfie_cr · Mar 7, 2005

They are the same network but the management/support team/accounting team is different and separate from victor chandler/golden palace etc

My wife (Who is Doylesroom Support manager) says that you can open a new account but you must use a different username and different email address

Also.....well I am sure I don't need to mention this, I suggest you don't tell some friend of yours to use your account and login from his house and play at the same table as this new account you may open at doylesroom

You would get caught :smoker2:

Lets assemble a list of POKERROOMS under the same umbrella.

That would be nice.

THanks,

Party skins include Empire, MultiPoker, Coral/Eurobet, Intertops Poker, and PokerNow. The skins share ring games but not tournaments, except for PokerNow which I think is a complete clone.

Cryptologic sites that are open to US players are Interpoker, William Hill, Totalbet, UKBetting, PokerPlex, and Carribean Sun. There are two more for non-US players. These sites share ring games but I have no info on tourneys.

Prima includes about 20 rooms and the list is at Primapoker.com.

PokerRoom has one or two skins as well.

Absolute, Poker Stars, UltimateBet, and Paradise are independant as far as I know.

Some good reviews here.....

FWIW- I signed up at ULTIMATE and rolled over my bonus in a few days with alot of success in the 5-10 and 10-20 from about midnight to 6am. I have gotten all of my funds from them now and they were very quick. I will be back w/ them in a few months.
