And they won't.

Full Tilt is offering $600 100% initial bonus, Ultimate Bet $650 and Poker Stars $50. PokerStars just doesn't get it.

None of these sites LOSE money on bonuses. If PokerStars doesn't take advantage of a golden opportunity now, then when?

On the other hand, maybe fish don't know from bonuses...

Just for reference, the $150 nightly on Stars only gets like 375-400 usually on Fridays (600+ other nights) and was over 500 tonight. Good sign.

I think FT and UB are counting on the fact that fish don't know anything about bonuses. Otherwise, the fish'll do the smart thing and pass over the lousy bonuses at those sites.

FT and UB have good software, but the rakeback and lousy bonuses just don't make up for the rockish games. I applaud Stars for spending their marketing budget on things that don't ruin the games.

Post this graph again in 3 weeks. Then I'll be very interested. Now the result is fairly meaningless, just alot of people logging on the Party and pissed off they can't play.

I really expected a LOT more people on Stars tonight, and it just did not happen at all.

curious first post. why don't you stop insulting our intelligence and just blatantly promote your site without trying to pathetically disguise yourself as a 2p2er. you will actually get a lot more respect from us, seriously.
