Bet365 gets 2 thumbs up!!

lightfungus · #1 09-26-05, 09:12 PM

Bet365 is ok, they have a nice bonus thats easy to clear for newcomers. 50 bucks for 250 raked hands where anything raked counts as raked, thats on anything you deposit. Plus you can get a deposit bonus on top of that. They accept neteller but then you have to withdraw through neteller using neteller and the transfer funds from merchant function.

BUT the best thing.....they gave me my change!!!! I hate sites that dont give me my .37 cents. What the hell, its practically stealing, there is no way it actually causes them problems to transfer noninteger amounts. So cheers to Bet365 mate!

I made a fortune playing at these tables. The 0.20/0.40 PL and NL tables are capped at a $0.30 rake, which is awesome considering I would frequently see these pots exceed $50. Players are weak.

Fungus, they round your cashout up or down, depending on how much you have. If you had another $0.13, they would have given you an extra $0.50 to make it an even cashout.

On other sites?

On bet365 they gave me what I had to the penny.

Tried to open an account there today but am having some trouble... every time I try to log in the screen goes blank (grey). I was able to register and make a deposit, but this happens (screen going blank) when I try to load a table. This is a Party skin, right? If that's the case do I have to have the same log-in name/password as my Party account? Could that be the problem?

I've emailed their customer support but wondered if anyone here knows what might be wrong while I wait for their response.

Thanks.

It's not a party skin, i think it's prima but it should be whatever name you created when you set up the account.

Do you have some sort of firewall/pop up blocker running?

Reel Deal · #6 09-28-05, 05:00 PM

Nope, no firewall or pop-up blocker on my laptop.

Reel Deal · #7 09-28-05, 11:33 PM

Got it working now... don't know what hte problem was.

Reel Deal · #8 09-29-05, 02:44 PM

Thank you fungus!!

Did about an hour's worth of multi-tabling at a couple of the .25/.50 NL tables at bet365 during lunch today and walked off with $37 and 75 raked hands towards the 250 and the $50 bonus. Very nice!!

Your welcome

, oh but you have to do a weird thing to cashout, just to warn you. Make sure your email address with bet365 is the same as yorus with netelle before you try to cashout. And you have to call to get the merchant code, the one they gave me was bet34725, try it otherwise call them.

Reel Deal · #10 09-30-05, 05:02 PM

OK, thanks for the heads-up.

what is the availability of low limit holdem and o8 games there? how many players usually are on the site?

i only like to sign up for accounts if they actually have a good number of games available, as working off any sort of bonus is usually a chore when you have limited options for play.

Reel Deal · #12 10-03-05, 10:36 AM

Lots of games, lots of limits and lots of players. On Saturday night there were so many on that most of the $50NL tables had 8-10 players on the wait list!! So, my only complant is there are times were there are too many players and the site doesn't increse the number of tables available.

lightfungus · #13 10-03-05, 01:15 PM

Yeah, they do have a problem with not increasing number of tables.

Reel Deal · #14 10-03-05, 01:43 PM

I think it's mostly European players so if you hit it during off-peak Euro hours then it's not going to be as crowded.

omahilo · #15 10-04-05, 02:21 PM

TP do you have a affiliate link for this site?

I was thinking of giving this site a shot, let me know.

omahilo · #16 10-04-05, 02:24 PM

Does anyone know if they are still giving a $50 bonus for 250 raked hands played?

Talking Poker · #17 10-04-05, 02:31 PM

I certainly do:

Thanks.

Reel Deal · #18 10-04-05, 02:34 PM

Not sure, but I think so.

Also, during October for every 50 qualifying raked hands you play they credit you with $10 up to a max of $100. Raked hands have to be played at a minimum $0.50/$1.00 PL or NL tables or at $1/$2 Limit tables. Pretty good deal.

omahilo · #19 10-04-05, 02:35 PM

How much rake do you need to generate or is it any raked hands?

Reel Deal · #20 10-04-05, 02:36 PM

Crud, sorry TP, I didn't know you had one... otherwise I would have gone through your link.

Reel Deal · #21 10-04-05, 02:39 PM

Not sure, but I just shot their customer support an email to find out b/c I'd like to know too.

I'll let you know when I get a response.

Talking Poker · #22 10-04-05, 03:29 PM

When in doubt, ask me. If I don't have one, I can usually set one up fast enough...

Memo to self:

Gordogg · #24 10-05-05, 12:34 PM

Sorry I did this deal as well, but didn't sign up through you TP. Do you have a list of all your current affiliate sites?
