I agree about the Pacific Software, it's not the greatest.However, the bonus is nice because it shows up instantly, no hands to play. You do have to play a certain number of hands before the bonus is available to cash out. However, if you use the bonus to make some $$, that $$ can be cashed out whenever.

It takes a lot of skill AND luck to win 2 wpt tournies. Sure, Tuan hit a 4 outer on the river to stay alive, but I guarantee the majority of big tourney winners hit a 4 outer at some point in their tourney. It's the nature of the game. Anyone thinking Tuan doesn't have skill basically has no respect for the game, because you are saying any idiot could come in and beat a lineup of the best players, TWICE.Oh, and "the Mouth", is great for the game of poker. I can't stand him, but you need villians in any sport (i.e. yankees), to make it more interesting.

I've been playing the original 10 player steps on PP for awhile. Cashed one time, which puts me way ahead so far. The fun thing about them is that you can play a lot of games for $12, because it's relatively easy to at least finish high enough to get a freeroll into the same step again, or drop down a step or 2 if you are in the higher steps. The most annoying part is finishing 5th in step 5. For that you get SQUAT, not even a freeroll back into step 1.I'm not too excited about the new step formats ($30 and $5 buy-ins.) In both of these steps, you have to come in #1 out of 10 in the first 2 st

So, I'm obviously pretty new here.Was this idea lame? Annoying? Or just so obvious that you had already done it before?Feel free to be mean, I can handle it. :cry:

Yup, that's a nicely packaged little bonus.Anyone have any comments on the quality of Royal Vegas?

I'm new to posting here, so if this is inappropriate let me know.Pacific Poker has a sweet refer-a-friend deal. If someone, that I refer, deposits $50, they get an extra $50 and I get $100. I've been telling my friends that I will give them $25 of my bonus so that we both get a $75 bonus. It's a great deal, you pay $25 and get $100 to gamble with. The bonus is deposited instantly, you just cannot cash it out until playing a certain number of hands. But at least you get to use their money to do it.I'll do the same for anyone out there that is interested. Just post your email addy here or email

Hi all,Quick question. I've been playing steadily online for a few years now and want to explore a new online site. Obviously, I want to take advantage of any new player bonuses out there that I can. Any suggestions on what site has the best bonus. Best being defined as a large bonus that is relatively easy to clear (sounds like UB can be a pain to clear.)I play Single and Multi-table SNG's and MTT's ranging from $10 to $50 buy-in almost exclusively. I dabble in the ring games, but can't seem to find a groove there.I currently have accounts with Pacific Poker, Pokerstars, and Party Poker. Paci
