PartyForFree

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ May 26, 2007 -> 10:00 PM) Did I need to register at pokersourceonline before signing up at Absolute Poker or does it matter? You need to use the Bonus Code (PSOCASH) from PSO to get your Instant Bankroll. As long as you used that, it should be fine.

QUOTE(JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ May 17, 2007 -> 09:33 PM) how do i know the status of my promotion? I don't see anything under the promotions tab that tells me anything other than other available promotions, I'm confused. You need to log in at pokersourceonline. Click the Absolute Poker link below to get to the site. Login, then click on "My PSO" and the "Promotions" section. You're probably logging in at Absolute Poker, right? PSO makes your first $50 deposit, so you need to check in there first.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ May 17, 2007 -> 08:11 PM) So I registered and for the $2,000 play money as well. How do I know everything is good to go? Just wait the 3-5 days? I noticed it only asked me if I was 18, not 21 (but I did enter my birthday.) Yes, now we wait. Once PSO verifies your info with Absolute Poker, they send you an email telling you to launch their chat application. Then they call you to verify that you're a real person, then it takes a couple of days and they deposit the money. Double-check your PSO account to check the status of your promotion, just in case your spam filter grabs their email.

QUOTE(vandy125 @ May 17, 2007 -> 10:51 AM) Didn't we go through this last year? Isn't this illegal for us U.S. citizens? Party Poker has closed it doors to the U.S.. Absolute Poker in one of the few sites left that takes U.S. players. It's not illegal to play online poker, but the U.S. congress passed a law making it illegal for financial institutions to process payments for online gaming sites. Your cashout options at Absolute Poker are a good old-fashioned paper check, and ePassporte. Absolute Poker has grown quite a bit since Party Poker shut down.Please note that this promotion takes about a week to process. You sign up, use the Bonus Code, PSO verifies that you signed up correctly, then you have to contact them and they verify your information, then it takes a couple more days for the money to be deposited in your account. While you wait, blow $5 at Wingows. It's a bit of a goofy site but it's free so I figured it couldn't hurt...

Hello Soxtalk! I found a couple more Free Bankrolls that I thought you might be interested in. There is NO DEPOSIT REQUIRED. You must set up your account using your real information, but you don't have to make a deposit to start playing for Real Money. I have personally participated in both of these promotions, and would be happy to answer any questions. Absolute Poker - $100 Free, No Deposit Required - U.S. Players Welcome!

Terms and conditions: You must be at least 21 years old to qualify for this promotion. You must be a FIRST TIME REAL MONEY PLAYER. If you have EVER had an active Absolute Poker REAL money account, you do not qualify. If you have EVER downloaded the Absolute Poker software in the past you do not qualify for this offer. Only one account per person and/or street address. DO NOT sign up for anyone else. Misrepresentation is prohibited. Only one Instant Bankroll promotion per person and/or street address.

The whole process can take about 3-5 days, but it's real money and it's FREE! While you're waiting for your Free $100 at Absolute Poker, try Wingows Poker!

After registering and validating your email address, your account will be credited with $5 within 24 hours. Have fun and good luck!

As you may or may not be aware, the U.S. government just passed some BS anti-online gambling legislation by tacking it on to their Port Security Bill. Party Poker may close it's doors to U.S. players within the very near future. If your Party Poker account is registered to a U.S. address, I would advise withdrawing your money immediately. Obviously, this will significantly affect our promotion...

QUOTE(DePloderer @ Sep 29, 2006 -> 05:19 AM) Thank you, my cash has arrived, lets see how long I can hold onto it. We should run a sweep on who cashes out with the most money, or more likely who lasts the longest. PartyForFree any chance of a similar deal with Backgammon? Now there's a game I can play. I think you can use that money at PartyGammon. Your PartyGaming account works at all their sites. I have no idea how to play backgammon...

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 27, 2006 -> 07:04 PM) I haven't got my money yet, nah. Check again. Good luck!

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 27, 2006 -> 04:40 PM) You're kinda being a jerk for someone hawking his wares here... We all know that you aren't just "giving" away money, and that odds are there people who get hooked will end up depositing way more than that $75 you are "giving away", who will by far out weight the freebies, leaving you with a tidy profit. It'd be nice if you were a little less condesending towards people IMO. Sigh...I'm sorry. But isn't it nice to know that PartyForFree is staffed by real people who will tell you the God's honest truth about this promotion? No, perhaps we're not charitable angels robbing from the rich and giving to the poor. Yes, perhaps the free $75 with no strings attached could be akin to giving a crackhead his first hit, or free cigarettes for 12 year-olds. At least we're not hiding anything. The money's free. You can take it, play the minimum hands and cash it out if you want. Party Poker thinks that you won't. Party Poker's market research shows them that, on average, a new player is worth more than $75 in long-term revenue for them. We just get a commission for every player that signs up through our site. Anyways, I'll try to be nicer. It was mostly in fun. QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 27, 2006 -> 04:49 PM) He can do whatever he wants, im up $217 right now.... Dude! Sweet! Cash some out while you're up. They'll send you a check. QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 27, 2006 -> 06:22 PM) Well that clearly went over your head. Get real, the dollar amount is far from the point that was made. Did you get your money? I told them to give you a little extra.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 27, 2006 -> 04:04 PM) How do u keep track of how many hands you play? In the "My Account" section there's a "Bonus Details" tab. It's "raked" hands, not just hands. If it doesn't meet the minimum for a rake it doesn't count. There's a Beginners Section with really low limits too if you're new. QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 27, 2006 -> 04:01 PM) I said I was getting sick of waiting, my Mcdonalds analogy explains why. I guess I just figured the faster you got the money out, the faster you'd be making money. It didn't make sense to me that I'm waiting 10 days when we were told 2 days at the most. I apologize for overreacting, 101 pisses/d me off. My apologies. I'm feeling the love. It's all about the love. How are your Haiku skills? I can't back down now. 5-7-5.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 27, 2006 -> 03:32 PM) Congratulations, slime ball. You just lost the one customer who'd have actually spent money. Up to you. It's your $50 if you want it. But you have to be nice. As a matter of fact, I will kick in an extra $1 if you complete your tasks this evening. And when the bonus kicks in you'll get a grand total of $76! And what did you have to do for that? Nothing. Download some software and wait for 5 business days. Sorry the approvals took longer than normal. Everybody else seems happy enough that they received a Free Bankroll to play poker with. Because I like you, I will settle for an apology in the form of a haiku. Here's an example: I was wrong before PartyForFree.Net Rocks! I am so sorry Any new players who want to try online poker can get $50 free from PartyForFree.net, and an extra $25 from Party Poker after you play 500 hands; 100% risk-free with no deposit or credit card info required.

QUOTE(DePloderer @ Sep 27, 2006 -> 02:57 PM) I must have done something very wrong. Still says my account is play money only. Should I delete all programmes from my PC and start again? We haven't received the international approvals yet. They get processed manually and go in a separate batch.

We've just received final approval from Party Poker. Everyone should see money in their Party Poker accounts now. Everyone except redandwhite. Dear redandwhite, Your information has been received and your account approved by Party Poker. However, since you claim to be "losing interest in this dogs***", I have personally put a hold on your funds until you complete the following: 1) Please compose a complimentary Haiku about PartyForFree.Net 2) Please compose a limerick about the Toronto Maple Leafs. Include a reference to Wendel Clark and his jersey number. This must also be complimentary. 3) Apologize for your impatience. 4) Post a link to a good recipe for peanut butter and jam sandwiches Once you have completed these 4 requirements to my satisfaction, we will deposit $50 into your Party Poker account. I hope this makes free money more interesting to you. Please let me know if you require any clarification. Any new players who want to try online poker do not have to compose Haikus and limericks like redandwhite to get $50 free from PartyForFree.net, and an extra $25 from Party Poker after you play 500 hands; 100% risk-free with no deposit or credit card info required.

QUOTE(whitesoxin @ Sep 27, 2006 -> 12:16 AM) They called me and I got my code and typed it in. Maybe my account name is varba and my screen-name or whatever is chisoxfan715. Found it. You're pre-approved with PartyForFree. As soon as Party Poker confirms that you signed up correctly using our bonus code, we'll transfer you the money. QUOTE(BobDylan @ Sep 27, 2006 -> 12:55 AM) I'm really glad my account never worked. Your pre-approved as well and should be receiving your money with the next batch. You would have had your money over a week ago if you'd signed up correctly the first time around. Thankfully our support team was able to walk you through it. QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 27, 2006 -> 02:54 AM) I did everything that was asked of me about a week ago, it just doesn't bode well for party poker if its taking weeks to have money processed, why wouldnt I just stick with Ultimate Bet which has been ideal for me for a while now? jujordan is also pre-approved. The Free Bankroll promotion is a new and very successful promotion at Party Poker. Sometimes they are delayed in processing the referrals from affiliates (like PartyForFree.Net). We don't get paid until you get paid, so we want to give you the money. We just need Party Poker to tell us that they will indeed pay us before we pay you. That's all. Sorry for the delay. Please forgive us.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 26, 2006 -> 03:29 PM) I'm losing interest in this dog s*** real fast... Not sure I understand you...care to expand on that? QUOTE(whitesoxin @ Sep 26, 2006 -> 05:29 PM) Still waiting on confirmation for chisoxfan715. Nobody with the Party Poker account name "chisoxfan715" has signed up at PartyForFree.net.

Click here and ignore the instructions for downloading the software: http://www.partyforfree.net/soxtalk You need to get right to the end where our software calls you to verify your phone number.

QUOTE(Goober @ Sep 25, 2006 -> 04:18 PM) hey can i get 50 more, i kind of lost that 50 Unfortunately, we only get paid a referral fee the first time we transfer you $50. The next $50 is on you.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 25, 2006 -> 07:45 AM) still waiting for verification on jujordan.. So are we. As soon as it comes through, we'll transfer you the cash. We don't get anything until we pay you.

QUOTE(BobDylan @ Sep 24, 2006 -> 11:10 AM) Am I still awaiting verification? When I try to log in I get "Sorry, but we did not recognize the login information you entered." EDIT: I see the account name they registered me under is chbukowski (not sure how that happened). But when I logged in, there was no money to my account. Everything looks good on our end. We still have to receive approval from Party Poker before we transfer the money to your account. That should happen on Monday or Tuesday. Hmmm...are you saying that your account name is chbukowski and not what you entered on our site? That would prevent you from being approved... QUOTE(DePloderer @ Sep 24, 2006 -> 11:44 AM) OK, I can promise you that I DID follow your instructions and link! You however omitted to mention that this offer is only applicable to those good people who live in the USA or Canada. Unfortunately everybody else in the whole wide world seem to be classed as second rate citizens and are not able to take advantage of your wonderful scheme. This is the Internet you know, not a local bring and buy sale. Email your Party Poker account name, email address, mailing address and phone number to [email protected] and we'll manually approve your account. Please reference your screen name at Soxtalk as well. We've had to limit it to North America due to a lot of fraud internationally. While I watch Coronation Street and Most Haunted regularly, I'm not familiar with "bring and buy" sales...care to elaborate? QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 24, 2006 -> 11:51 AM) So should I have my real money now? Do I have to make the deposit, or will it just go to my account in a few days? You DO NOT have to make a deposit. We've sent your information off to Party Poker. Once they confirm that you signed up with our bonus code, we'll transfer you the money. Probably Tuesday. You can play the Rookie Freerolls in the meantime if you want. You can win real money.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 23, 2006 -> 08:54 PM) Should the validation of the phone number be the last thing I have to do? Yes. I see your info and everything looks good. Thanks and good luck! QUOTE(BobDylan @ Sep 23, 2006 -> 11:45 PM) Still waiting for my account name to be verified. Name is BukowskisBrain Everything looks good Mr. Dylan. QUOTE(MHizzle85 @ Sep 24, 2006 -> 01:46 AM) Still waitin on mine too... UserName Is MHizzle I found your information, but Party Poker didn't approve our referral. We emailed you the following: -------------------- Party Poker has advised us your account name ("MHizzle05") is not associated with PartyForFree.net This could be for one of several reasons: 1) You did not enter the bonus code when you signed up for your account. 2) You have provided us with your Party Poker screen name, instead of account name. 3) You entered your Party Poker account name ("MHizzle05") incorrectly. Please confirm if this is the correct spelling of your account name. -------------------- You should reply to the email to get this resolved quickly. QUOTE(whitesoxin @ Sep 24, 2006 -> 02:01 AM) It won't let me create a username for PartyPoker because I have an account with Empire Poker. Why is that? I only have an account for play money on empire, so why isn't it letting me sign up? Can I delete my empire account somehow? That's strange. I haven't heard this before. Try creating a Party Poker account using a different email address.

QUOTE(PartyForFree @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 09:13 PM) PM or post your Party Poker account names and email addresses and I'll double-check. There's been quite a few sign-ups from Soxtalk. Jujordan - We have your information now and everything looks good. You should receive your free bankroll within a couple of days, as soon as Party Poker approves our referral.

QUOTE(DePloderer @ Sep 22, 2006 -> 09:05 AM) My account name is Deploderer, I'm at work so can't see if my money's arrived at the moment. You didn't complete the sign-up process on our site. Click the link below and FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS!!! That felt good.

There's been quite a few sign-ups from Soxtalk.

QUOTE(vandy125 @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 01:01 PM) IIRC, isn't online gambling illegal in the US? I know that is a huge thing over here, but I think that the companies are usually based overseas so that they can get away with it because US laws do not apply. Let me know if I am wrong on this. That's right, they're all based overseas or, as in Party Poker's case, on Indian reservations in Canada. Ever seen that Simpsons episode?
