Bobo, can you give us a link to where you found that information? The link on the Stars News popup page, the "25% Deposit Bonus" page, gives no specific info about this particular offer.

Bobo Fett is correct. I dont have a link but it says it on the bonus page in my account now.

There is also a section that says,
"If you cash out any amount from your PokerStars account during the Bonus Period, but prior to making a qualifying deposit, you are ineligible for the deposit bonus."

So if I first deposit $500 (or whatever), then I cash out the $500 right away, I am ok?

Davey

ApeAttack, that is fine. Once you deposit for the bonus I think they give you 6 months to clear, you can cashout with no problem.

i want to do this bonus but its been a while since ive tried to get money out of poker. i am assuming its still possible to get money from ePassporte to an american bank account? or just possible to get money out of ePassporte somewhere in general.

Spurious

09-15-2007, 06:31 AM

I got a question:

I cant cashout my bankroll now, and deposit it again, because that will make me ineligible for the bonus, am I right?

Another question:
If i deposit 10$ from my neteller now, and dont type in the bonus code, it wont count, does it?

NorthernGuy

Cashing out first will make you ineligible.

It's only your first deposit during the period, so make it a good one.

Leastz

09-15-2007, 08:40 AM

Nope, during the promotion, if you make any cashout, you will be disqualified for the bonus.

no, you have to type in the bonus code

When did this promo start exactly? I pulled everything from Stars to bonus whore elsewhere yesterday, would that make me ineligible?

god if u're a low limit player, you're probably better off playing at absolute. Absolute clears faster and you also get rakeback. I'm not even sure if I'll do this.

I believe Full Tilt is even faster as well.

you have 6 months to clear it. its not a lot of money obviously but its free money. i dont get why people bitch so much.

stars are such cheapskates when it comes to bonuses, with all the business they are getting u would think they'd give at least a 50% bonus, 25% up to $125 is such a joke.

Well yes it's free money, but if a site like Absolute offers more bonuses regularly, (actually like once a week), then the obvious choice is to not waste your time playing at Pstars. Now considering level of play, it might be even. Sometimes playing on Pstars is pulling teeth. On contrary, Absolute is flooded with BBJ games. I'm talking LHE, which nobody plays anyways.

Lessu

09-15-2007, 10:12 PM

Any bonus at stars or party is always a good thing. You can't even compare absolute to stars in customer support, amount of players, software etc. It's not only about how frequent they offer bonuses...

can i transfer before getting the bonus? i just transferred someone $500 and am going to moneygram today. i hope im not screwed
