I was excited all day yesterday to go home and play at Paradise one last time. Found a great, juicy table, clicked on the empty seat, and "We're sorry... No U.S..." Now this. /images/graemlins/frown.gif

Paradise is giving you a [censored] plane ticket?!?!?! They should have done this a month ago with Americans and one-way flights to Canada.

I got this from a post at Fezziks. This could be why they are waiting until November 13th to pull the plug on us. Anybody think there's a chance this Jazette Enterprises lets us keep playing there?

On Friday, Sportingbet of London offloaded $13.2 million of debt by selling its U.S. sports-betting, casino business and poker operations to Antigua-based Jazette Enterprises Ltd. The company said the sale saved it $14 million in costs it would have had to pay to close the operations. The businesses have a total 500 employees.

Sportingbet said it will keep its European sports, casino and poker businesses, Australian sports business and the non-U.S. business of Paradise Poker.

Andrew McIver, Sportingbet's chief executive designate, said in a statement that the company was "saddened to have to dispose of such a fantastic business as a result of political actions in the U.S. Congress."

Sportingbet will retain the Internet addresses and intellectual property of wallstreet.com, aces.com and sportingbetUSA.com, but won't use them for any U.S. gaming purpose. Jazette has agreed not to take bets from non-U.S. residents for two years, and not to take bets from customers outside the Americas for three years.

Well since the center of the world is Toronto and all planes much therefore gravitate to it I suppose I'll get stuck visiting 'back east' ... Ugh. You guys even get snow and sub zero temperatures /shudder.

I didn't get this email since I haven't played Paradise in a year or so. Interested in a plane ticket though. What an awesome bonus.

So if I enter the bonus code I'm good to go?

The conditions on the plane ticket said limited to certain Canadian and American cities. Worst case scenario the plane ticket sucks and you can't use it, it is still a $100 bonus and a freeroll for a $12000 spot in the Aussie Millions.

The catch most likely will be that Paradise buys the ticket ($100-$150 on sale) but we have to pay the taxes ($150-$250)

Still I would use it to hit Vegas on a Friday nite for a 24hour pigout/donkfest

I didn't recieve an email but just deposited $200 and got the bonus. So I think it's not account specific.

Is there an option so that it'll say the bet sizes under people's bets? Having to hover my mouse over someone's bet every time is so damn annoying I now remember why I have so much uncleared bonus money there.

Hi,
No chip amounts, yet.
OTOH I find Paradises chips the easiest to read at a glance of all the sites I've played.

Following the lead of someone over at bw.com. I tried both the TOUCAN and SHELL codes, they both worked. Yay for me

I'm Canadian. I got the 100% up to $200 bonus plus flight and Down Under private tourney offer.

I used it to the max and quickly won over $1000 in tournaments. In the past with Paradise bonuses I have deposited just to get the bonus and then quickly withdrew without playing there at all until I had worked off time-limited bonuses elsewhere. I didn't lose the bonus. I would like to remove a good chunk of money out of there for "safety" reasons but I don't want to risk losing the bonus and flight and freeroll. Would you recommend I withdraw no more than I have profited since making the deposit, or should I wait until after the deposit period is over on Monday afternoon, or wait until the October 20th email, or do you think I could withdraw as much as I want whenever I want without worry of having the bonus taken and perks taken back?

MadMat
10-15-2006, 06:52 PM
Just tried TOUCAN1006, got a "Sorry that bonus is no longer valid" pop-up

Nice that they warned me while there was enough time to cancel the deposit though!

I got the code no good thing too. If they actually cancelled this early i'll never play at their site again. They said I had until Monday afternoon.

10-15-2006, 07:11 PM
Cancelled on me too anyone ask support whats wrong yet?

I tried, no answer yet. Not a good thing to do to people when they have enough problems as it is.

oVan
10-15-2006, 07:41 PM
Also cancelled for me. What are they thinking? If people aren't able to get this bonus, they will certainly lose a lot of their already dwindling business.

This is a [censored] thing to do to people.

smallSEK
10-15-2006, 08:43 PM
Yeah, I tried too and got the message as well. Tried emailing support, but haven't heard back yet. If they're going to pull something like this. I doubt I'll go back to paradise unless they make another decent bonus like this one.

johnnydingles
10-15-2006, 09:13 PM
Says in the lobby email is delayed. I emailed them Friday and haven't heard back on another issue, don't expect to hear back on this. I'm done with them unless they make this up./
