The Unofficial Online Poker Thread

[Midnight]

I?ve been doing a lot of the poker promotions from different sites and thought I would put them all into one post, saves people the time of digging through stuff.

There are a few sites I know that offer a bonus for signing up with their code.

Most sites offer just $25, but a few others offer better deals.

All the sites that offer special deals for signups get credit for referring you as a player this isn?t a bad thing, but that?s how these sites work. That?s how they can offer you these promotions.

This is in no way a definitive guide, but these are the sites I looked at when I was trying to max promotions. I?ll add more as people suggest them or I have more experiences.

For me I did the following offer from each site:

Party Poker - BigBlindPoker
Absolute Poker - eCasinoDeals
Pacific Pacific - PokerSourceOnline

The players:

PokerSoureOnline.com I believe this was the first site of this kind, lotsa positive experiences and a ton of offers.

eCasinoDeals.com Has some more options for signups, offers tend to be better than PSO.

BigBlindPoker.net Newer site with only one promotion, but a good one.

PartyPoker ? My personal favorite poker room.

Both sites give you $25 for opening a new account this is through party not the referral sites. Both also require 125 raked hands to qualify.

BigBlindPoker.net - $50 cash, paypal, check etc.

PokerSourceOnline.com ? 300 11.5 Clay Poker Chips free delivery

Winner ? BigBlindPoker.net, 300 chips is good, $50 cash is better.

Absolute Poker.com requires 150 raked hands

Absolute Poker has a 35% deposit bonus code good on either site.

eCasinoDeals.com - 2 Decks of Kem Cards plus automatic shuffler, dealer button and acrylic chip trays

PokerSourceOnline.com 2 Decks of Kem Cards, dealer button and cut card

Winner ? eCasinoDeals.com, get the same deal as PSO plus shuffler and chip trays.
PacificPoker.com

PokerSourceOnline.com Free WPT Season 1 DVD Set

Winner ? PSO, uncontested.

GamingClub.com

PokerSourceOnline.com Free poker gaming top and carrying case

Winner ? PSO, uncontested.


I have been told there are other promotions at gaming club besides the ones listed. I will be updating the thread.

I have like many others had positive experiences with these places. You are right, they wont steal your money.

PokerSourceOnline and eCasinoDeals are both very reputable places. I've gotten a ton of stuff from both places!

i had a bad experience dealing with partypoker.
i tried it and i got free $25 after i played a certain amount of raked hands and since i referred my friend, he received $50 as well but the bad thing about that company is you need a certain amount of money to cash out. i cashed in with $50 and i was down to my last $15 dollars and after i receieved the $25 i need more money to cash out. i guess that is how they get your money.

ill never deal with online poker sites again after that. heck, atlantic city is only an 1.5 hours away from me.
