Party gets even sweeter

[2Tone]

After wading through 2+2, it looks like Pshabi's offer was one of the best. Other players have the chance to earn much more cash, but the number of points required would require playing multiple tables of 5/10 and up for 30+ plus hours a week, which basically rules out anybody but full-time online pros.

Not surprisingly, your target is based on how much you've played previously. While it's clear why Party would do this, it does screw some of their fairly high-volume players, who basically would have to go full time to hit their bonus, while the lower end of VIP spectrum have more realistic targets to hit. Looking at it this way, Party is in effect punishing their biggest customers.

And of course, if you are not VIP, you get nothing. If Party gave me a lower-tier offer – say 300 points and a $20 offer (1/3rd the number of hands and ¼ the bonus Pshabi received), I'd jump on it.

The first week I cleared my bonus plus 30% for $104. The last two weeks, I maxed it out at $160. $324! Nice

If the trend continues, which it will, it will mean another $800 + the $320 bonus at the end for 8 weeks of success. $1444 in bonii for two months play. That along with my other "unmentionables" and I'm looking at an avg of $1200 a month in party "incentives."

Shabi wants to party all the time, party all the time, party all the time!!!!!!!!!

That's pretty sweet.

I wonder if I should close my account and open a new one... my current account seems to have 0 VIP benefits.

You can get it just as well on either account, you just need to crank it up and grind it out old school for a month. Come back home TP.
