Just wondering how the tables are compared to the other major sites and if you have any success. Thanks in advance

apparantly none of us are playing there....i saw they had a monster sign up bonus, up to 600 free, but i guess clearing it takes a ridiculous amount of time

Yes, i was checking it out last night and the action there is really weak. Although they have a wide variety of NL tables (.10-.20, .50-1.00, 1.00-2.00, 3-6), there are few if any full tables, and some of these have pros playing on them. I am thinking it's good for the bonus, but at the moment not much else. They also have a good bonus system that lets you build up points and use them for tourneys or to use in their store, similiar to Ultimate Bet.

A buddy of mine earned the full $600.... He told me it took him over 10,000 hands to get tere (and he is not a low stakes player). Just a little FYI. I signed up a while ago, but have yet to give it a try.

Do most of you find that no matter what any site says about clearing a bonus, that it always seems to take significantly longer?

Not really, Party is not that bad, it only takes a few hours at most.

I have cleared bonuses for a number of sites in one night. See my site reviews for details, but off the top of my head, , , and were fast and easy:


Just checked my notes.... I cleared all three of those bonuses in about 8 or 9 hours of play in TOTAL. Talk about eay money!

If they have an affiliate program, please put it up on your site reviews. I've been thinking about giving full tilt a try for a while, especially if that bonus is clearable

Default Maybe not so clearable.

G'luck if you try out FT. Generally, I like the software, but there is not enough people for me to deposit money. (If they wanna give me free money like Mirabelle, then I'll gladly play!) I REALLY like the fact that you can "move" your seat with the click of a button. It helps when multitabling, I'm sure.

I have heard some horror stories from people trying to clear their bonus. There were a few threads awhile ago on Rec.Gambling.Poker (), maybe do a search and see what other people have said.

Post a report if you decide on it.

Default Not Party?

TP:

I haven't tried any of those sites - but I find it hard to believe that Party wouldn't be included in your list. ANY raked hand counts toward your total. I think that's an incredibly easy requirement to meet.

I'm assuming Empire is the same way - correct?

Your thoughts?

FTP Poker has a lot of tight players right now, but will soon be full of fishies, i think they are expanding quite well, and within 1 year, should be flying!
