Party email offer: $200 for 2400 points
 

Just wondering how many hands this would be approx at 100NL 6 max.

I am sure it is a crazy number and much too high to even consider trying for but thought I would check anyway.

Thanks!

I just got a 30$ bonusoffer from them, no strings attached. Very nice! (I only played there at NL5 and NL10, but moved since to a different site for higher levels. Gimme the unspeakable, PP, and I'll be back for good *g*)

I tried to get a $100 bonus for 1200 points playing mostly $11 sngs and NL50 and it took an impossibly long time. So frustrating. I did some math and found out that the time it took me to finish that $100 bonus, I would have been earning way more than $100 in RB at other sites with 30% RB. So I gave up the bonus with $60 of restricted bonus left to clear and never looked back. PP bonuses are pretty bad.

Agreed...unless it's one of those rare 4x or 6x PP bonuses. 12x bites, both my wife and I just got a $200 12x offer, and we're passing.

Re: Party email offer: $200 for 2400 points
 

isn't this a bonus that gets deposited into your account immediately? Can't you just gamble with it at a higher limit?

Re: Party email offer: $200 for 2400 points
 

Just play in the casino. You'll clear those points in no time.

Re: Party email offer: $200 for 2400 points
 

How long to we get to clear the points after opting in for the bonus?

I see my $200 is not a deposit bonus but as the poster above said it is a cashout restricted bonus.

So knowing this:

Would the best bet to be to opt in, then play BJ at $100 a hand until I get to either $400 or lose the $200. And if I do get to $400, then didin't I just make $200 risk free $? (if I wasn't planning on playing 10,000 hands to clear it?)

Yep, you would still have a 200$ restricted from cashout, but you could cashout the extra 200$ you made. I had only a 100$ bonus, I put it all on red on roulette, it came out black [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] oh well, I'll wait until the next one to try again.

Re: Party email offer: $200 for 2400 points
 

Wait, I still am kind of confused.

Can someone help me with how the cashout restricted bonus works.

I have $1000 in my account now.

I opt in for the $200 bonus so now my account says $1200 but I can't cash out the $200 until I clear 2400 points.

So I go to BJ with $200 and lose it on 2 hands. So now I have $1000 again. But if I try to cashout my $1000 now, won't $200 of it be cashout restricted still?

Yes, it's exactly it. Once you opt in, you have 200$ restricted until you clear the points. So in your case, going to blackjack with 200$ is a bad idea.

In my case, I had 0$ balance in party, I cleared everything out because of their stupid new bonuses. So for me, if I doubled up, I can cash out the profit and leave the rest there, I don't care... But for you, actually, for everybody with a balance, it's really not a good idea to opt in until you are certain that you can clear all the points without losing the bonus. Because if you lose it all, then you have some of your own money locked up in there.

Re: Party email offer: $200 for 2400 points
 

Thought so. Thanks for clearing it up.

Re: Party email offer: $200 for 2400 points
 

Hopefully this will make it clear how a cashout restricted bonus works on Party.

I also received an email offering a $150 cashout restricted bonus. You do not need to deposit, just hit the "Opt In" button.

I already had $503.32 sitting in my account when I opted in.

I bet $50 on Red on Roulette and won. I left the game (this is important to keep the money) and the $50 I won is transferred to my available balance and the restricted amount stays at $150.

I went back to roulette and did the same bet and won again. I left again giving me $100 in winnings.

I yet again went to roulette and this time I lost, my restricted amount then dropped to $100 but my account available amount stayed at $603.32 (starting $503.32+$50+$50).

I then won the next spin putting my restricted amount back to $150 and my available amount stayed at $603.32.

I then took the $150 restricted amount to BJ and played single hands at $25 a time. Every single time my balance went over $150 I left the table so that the surplus was added to my available amount and I went back to the table with $150.

I kept doing this until I hit a bad run and lost exactly the $150 restricted amount. At this point my available total was $994.82 giving me winnings off $491.50.

The next day I withdrew $990 to Neteller and it was deposited in there within a few hours.

So basically take the restricted amount to the casino and GAMBOOOOOL! [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Re: Party email offer: $200 for 2400 points
 

Still confused.

I have a $200 bonus that I don't want to play 10,000 hands for so I will try your method.

Account balance is $5000.

Can you give me a gameplan to try to get the most out of the $200 bonus with no risk or little risk to my money?


Many questions like 1) why did you start with roulette and not BJ?

2)Why did you switch to BJ and not just keep playing roulette?

3) What would have happened if you lost your 1st 3 $50 spins? Would have you then lost $150 of your own money?



I guess this is kind of like a sticky bonus from my casino whoring days but those were so long ago that I forget...

Re: Party email offer: $200 for 2400 points
 

You can only do this if it's a cashout restricted bonus not a regular deposit bonus.

1) I wanted as close as possible to get a coin flip bet, betting red or black gives you 36/37 odds on European Roulette. If I busted on the first 3 rolls then i just wait for the next time they offer the bonus.

2) No real reason other than I find roulette boring.

3) If I lose the first 3 spins then all I lose is the bonus money, my balance is still intact.

If you want to try it bet $1 on red or black, whatever the result leave the game and check your balances.

If you won then your available balance will be up $1 and the bonus will still say $200.

If you lost your available balance won't have changed and the bonus amount will be $199.

thanks, will try it out!

Re: Party email offer: $200 for 2400 points
 

I just opted in and did 2 $25 BJ hands and won them both so now I am guarenteed $50 I guess. Not bad, not bad!! Thanks for the tips.

Re: Party email offer: $200 for 2400 points
 

Sweet, ran really hot in BJ, played hands from $25 to $100 a couple of times and ended up $668 before I busted through the bonus!!!! Very nice!!!!
