yeah i understand. but some sites, they let u have it and if u play a certain amount of hands, it’s all urs…for some sites, they let u work the rakes, THEN u receive the bonus money…
if they give me $180, it gives me more to work with and be less scared of losing it…hit me back Rickstah with more info. thanks
Rakeback isn’t entirely dead. Even on Party, rakeback is SORT OF back. Only some affiliates are allowed to offer it, which is random and more than a little unfair. But you should expect that in all business dealings with Party. They’ll probably do what they did last March/April and randomly yank it one month, but for now they need the high volume affiliates to keep their (slim) lead over Stars so they’ll allow it for now.
But for most other major networks you can still be getting rakeback. Cryptos, PR network, Absolute, etc.
For a shady trick involving rakeback, if you have a rakeback Eurobet account, deposit for their $600 bonus and clear off 99% of it this month. This’ll boost your MGR up and you’ll get paid for that play, then next month clear off the last few points and you’ll get the bonus. It’s pretty much an extra $150-$200 bucks depending on your affiliate in completely free money.
PT just hit 100k hands for limit games. Full database is slightly over 120k factoring in NL games also. Strangely (or not so, depending on your point of view), over those extra 20k hands, I’ve made way more money than I have over the 100k in limit. So either I just suck in limit or it’s true that money is way easier to make at low limit NL than at low limit limit. http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3759/620/1600/100kPT.jpg

you can get ghetto rakeback if you sign up through a friend who signs up to be an affiliate and just have him give you all the money hes supposed to earn. never really tried it, but it seems like it works. theres a payment plan for like 20% i believe
I had to make a new account tape, I’m pretty sure there isn’t a rakeback offer for existing accounts…just ask to close your party account, but don’t say why.
Will my affiliate get screwed for my negative MGR in January tho? I did this, but I just thought he might have to pay for my negative MGR - not sure how that works. Or if I have negative MGR does he just get $0 and not have to pay
Good luck trying to get another neteller, it’s pretty much impossible.
anyone got any good stories of playing well known players. i was playing heads up against jesus and jen harman a while back. harman stomped me with trips, i had j-4, my now unlucky hand. i’m crap at poker any of you guys ever beaten well known people?
so with the Holiday Season/New year rapidly approching…anyone making any 2006 Poker resolutions?
For me, Since afaik NL is now basically approved at our casino,:lovin:
I am going to try to come out ahead at 1/2 and 2/4 NL:sweat: , I know “ahead” is a loose term and its not the largest thing going but it will be new here and if its just the same player base…I think my reads will make it worth my while. I can always play limit safely so I have a place I can drop back to if needed without going broke
Play more online. reading Viscants blog only makes me foam here, net bonuses/free money for smart play, more players, lots of places to play its a big sea out there and I want to improve my game and max my money with the bank roll I have. I think its totally possible.
More improvement, I think this never gets old here
any other suggestions I’m totally open to and would like advice on, you guys probably are way ahead of me all around:sweat:
I’m pretty sure Eurobet affiliates can’t run a negative MGR, although I’m not 100% sure on that. I know that on Party, you can run a negative MGR with the blackjack/sidebet thing. If you’re paid on a percentage and your players go on a hot streak you may end up owing them money. Not really a concern for me since I’m on the $75/new signup plan, but I’ve heard some horror stories.
But yeah as near as I can tell for Eurobet they’ll just run a 0 for MGR in January and the only side getting screwed here is Eurobet themselves.
My resolution for poker in 2006 is to earn 100k. I know this sounds insanely ambitious and borderline stupid, but I’ve been reading a new website called the 100K project (http://www.100kproject.com/ ), and I figure if they can do it, I can also. I already have a head start from playing professionally for a year now, so if they can take some schmoe and do it, why not me?
Of course this means upping my bankroll significantly, but it’s a nice goal to shoot for right now. I’ll have to see exactly how they do it for LabRat, but if anyone can do it, why not me?
Any tips for whoring bonuses? I just don’t understand how bounuses work…
Say i deposit $100 at Bayou poker. Now they say they give 100 percent bounus. Does that mean i can just deposit my 100 and make an easy 100 in the process?
If so, what are the rules? Can i just cash out right away or what?
