Bet365 gets 2 thumbs up!!
 
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.

lightfungus 09-27-05 09:52 AM

On other sites?

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

Reel Deal 09-28-05 03:29 PM

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.

nutbag 09-28-05 04:56 PM

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 09-28-05 05:00 PM

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

Reel Deal 09-28-05 11:33 PM

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

Reel Deal 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!!

lightfungus 09-29-05 10:36 PM

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 09-30-05 05:02 PM

OK, thanks for the heads-up.

eddo31 10-02-05 11:37 PM

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 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 10-03-05 01:15 PM

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

Reel Deal 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 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 10-04-05 02:24 PM

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

Talking Poker 10-04-05 02:31 PM

I certainly do:


Thanks.

Reel Deal 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 10-04-05 02:35 PM

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

Reel Deal 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 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. :D I'll let you know when I get a response.

Talking Poker 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...

Reel Deal 10-04-05 05:48 PM

Memo to self:


Gordogg 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?

omahilo 10-05-05 12:46 PM


Gordogg 10-05-05 12:49 PM

Thanks omahilo.

Talking Poker 10-05-05 01:58 PM

You've been here since December and never found that page? Maybe I need to redesign this place! LOL...

Those are most of my affiliate codes (they can also be found on the main page of the site), but for future reference - I can usually get signed up for new ones in a matter of minutes.

Thanks guys.

Reel Deal 10-05-05 02:53 PM

And you need to update it to include bet365!! Pretty sure I did look there first but when it wasn't there I just went directly to the site.

Gordogg 10-05-05 04:11 PM

I have the forum bookmarked to bring me straight to the forum. I forgot about that main page, lol. I'll be bonus whoring so if I can't find the site I'm interested in on your list I'll PM you beforehand to give you a chance to create an affiliate link.

Talking Poker 10-05-05 06:36 PM

Much appreciated.

Gordogg 10-05-05 10:26 PM

Do you have to email support when you hit the 250 raked hands for the $50 bonus? Or do they automatically credit your account?

Argh, Prima network. Watch out for those wacky Scandinavians, at least you can rack up raked hands watching them throw their money around. :D

Reel Deal 10-06-05 02:46 PM

Cleared the free $50... went quick. Just wish I wasn't getting cold decked the last few times there, so many loose maniacs just begging to give away their $$, unfortunately I had to watch them give most of it away to someone else.

Oh well, on to the next bonus.

Gordogg 10-06-05 04:48 PM

How did you get the money? I cleared it earlier today but I don't see it in my account yet. I emailed them, no response yet.

Reel Deal 10-06-05 05:26 PM

I'm in the same boat... waiting on their response to my email.

Reel Deal 10-07-05 02:25 PM

OK these blokes are starting to get on my nerves... first, I think it's completely bush league to require that you email them to claim your bonus. Second, it's ridiculous that it's been over 24 hours and I have still not heard from them. Cough-up my bonus damn it!! :mad:

omahilo 10-07-05 02:33 PM

this is why I have a very hard time putting my money into sites other than stars and party.

You will get your money eventually but Im just so used to stars and party, they are legit and give the bonus money instantly after you clear it.

Gordogg 10-07-05 04:05 PM

No shit. I'm still waiting as well.

Doyle's Room's bonus is pretty cool. Pretty easy to clear, no bullshit. I've cashed out with them and it took three days to neteller, not bad. The bonus was credited the next day. They have live help as well, which I love. The bonus is $135 if you deposit at least $400 with neteller. That's 35%. It's a 25% bonus if you use another payment option. You can choose the money for 13, 500 action points to clear or Super System 2 for 10, 000 action points to clear. I chose the money and cleared it in about four days playing 1/2 and 2/4 limit. I played a little NL as well and the action points accumulated faster. You accumulate them based on how much money you invest in a given pot. NL means you wager more per pot, all in etc... The games are pretty soft as well, I profited a shitload not including the bonus.

Reel Deal 10-10-05 11:26 AM

Well, finally got my email from them and my $$... on top of the $50 bonus I also cleared another $20 from their monthly deal. Jumping threw hoops and taking long to respond is annoying, but I'm happy with my free $70. I'll probably play a bit more there during October to grab some of that extra monthly cash and will then clear out.

Reel Deal 10-18-05 05:30 PM

Cleared the $50 deposit bonus and the $100 free for October at bet635, pretty nice to deposit $100 about 20 days ago and now have over $300 (even after blowing some of it on MTT buy-ins). Not a big fan of the site, will pull most of the cash out and head to either Doyle's Room or Full Tilt next (through TPs links of course) and bonus whore over there... bye, bye Euros.

GeoffM 11-06-05 06:23 PM

The $100, 5x raked monthly bonus can be cleared at 0.20/0.40 PL :D .

lightfungus 11-06-05 08:22 PM

No way! Wish I had the roll right now.

Reel Deal 11-07-05 12:09 AM

Thanks for the tip... the way I've been running I might head there!

Tony Cheval 11-08-05 07:34 PM

Argh, I tried this, ended up having to go to a .25/50 PL table instead, and after a while (and hopefully a ton of raked hands) busted. Honestly, how do you get a wheel on the turn and LOSE money? :eek: :rolleyes:
