Yeah, Party really messed this one up. Those who haven't played much got rewarded and those who busted their butt the past month are offered unreasonable target goals that are not even negotionable. Well done, Party! Way to keep your high volume customers!

For reference, I played less than 11k hands of 5/10 6max in January (blue level) and got offered $120 for 1305 points, or nearly 9 cents/point, which is one of the better offers as I understand it. My play in January wasn't much out of line in terms of volume.

I don't have any clue how they determined which players got which bonuses.

9 c/pt at blue is actually a little less than my 4.7c/pt at gold.


however, as i indicated before, if my target was only 1300 points or something I would do it (because it wouldn't take 50 hours to get the bonus).

[Nietzsche]

Me too. Even if the money was less proportionately and they cut my target in half I would do it. But playing 60 hours a week is just way too much.

And it seems really strange businesswise to reward those who play the least and offer unreachable (and non-negotionable!) goals to others. Of course they will lose business from high volume players with this inflexible approach. $10,000 a month they will lose from me until the promotion is over. I just cannot believe how short sighted these guys are.

good point Bob mine is 2290 points for $135 and I'm at SILVER(will be GOLD next quarter). My effective rate is 8.84 cents at SILVER but on only 2290 hands! I attribute this to my playing on many other sites and my NLHE play.

It doesnt look good but for me it's perfect! Very little pressure to double that each week for eight weeks consecutively and make the $2700 on not alot of work.

What I want to know is this ??? my current offer has a 100% cap on it and others have mentioned no cap. I could easily do 3x maybe 4x my weekly requirement and net $3780/$4860 over the 8 week period.

I'm going to call Party VIP and ask about this.

[goodguy_1]

I just spoke to a Party VIP cs rep.

He told me all accounts are capped at 100%(2x)your original weekly points target.
