Empire > Party?
 
Hey Empire players -- are you getting consistent reload offers? 2+2 reports that get15 works yet again, plus a few other offers here and there. Meanwhile, over at Party, no such luck. Any current players on both who can comment on if Empire is indeed more generous than it's counterpart?

I seem to get a reload offer at about once a month, where it's maybe half as frequently at . The best part of the Empire reloads is that there is no time limit to clear them, where at Party, sometimes you have as little as 7 days (not a problem for me, but for the casual player, I can see how it coul be).

Chalk up another reason to join Empire. Hey anyone notice Party Poker ads are all over.

bothecorgi 11-12-04 04:22 PM

Yes - the elevators at our work have running news stories with ads at the bottom and I see one for Party Poker at least once a day.

2Tone 11-12-04 04:57 PM

Not ALL over ...
 
Not on web sites or TV, at least not for PartyPoker.com directly. Feds cracked down on that.

See below.

Meanwhile, where the heck is my Party Reload offer!?




In a separate contract, dated Oct. 14, Tropical Paradise agreed to pay $350,000 to run advertisements on the Discovery Web site. According to the court papers, filed in federal district court in Maryland, Tropical Paradise paid the amount of the contracts in full, and was told the money would be refunded if the advertisements did not run.

Indeed, only a small portion of the advertisements were broadcast. On Oct. 25, Discovery, after learning of the government's position about advertising of offshore gambling, told Tropical Paradise that it would cease broadcasting the commercials. According to court papers, the parties agreed Discovery would refund the money for commercials that did not run.

But Tropical Paradise never got its money back, and in April it sued Discovery for breach of contract in federal district court in Maryland, asserting that it is owed $3.25 million for the unperformed portion of the two contracts. In response to the lawsuit, Discovery, without challenging Tropical Paradise's right to the money, said it no longer had the money because it had been seized by the United States marshals on April 6.

True - it seems like the ads are for PartyPoker.net but is there really any difference between the 2?

Technicality
 
Party is just barely obeying the letter (though not the spirit) of the law by advertising their get started on playing poker for play money pages, which are at a different domain extension. The upsell to real money comes later.

But if they can get away with it, more power to ‘em. As far as I’m concerned, the more players on Party, the better.

As to why the Empire players get more reload bonuses than Party players … I wish I knew.

Tilter 11-15-04 03:22 PM

So any reload bonuses for Nov? Do they allow you to withdraw, and then redeposit to get the full bonus>?

2Tone 11-15-04 03:27 PM

Nothing for November
 
For me at least, I can confirm Party has offered absolutely nothing for the month of November. Can't comment on Empire.

So if you have extra $ and are looking for bonuses, try TP's list or ,
who are offering 25% first time bonus + 10% rake back.

Hassle
 
I find the reload bonus stuff not worth my time these days. I make more just playing. Yeah. I know it is free money. But not worth it.
