If you haven’t claimed the whole $600 bonus with your first deposit, you may claim the remainder of your bonus with your second and/or third deposits.

Regarding the technical issues, we are of working on smoothing them out ASAP.

While a lot of time went into preparing for today, this is indeed a testing period to make sure everything is functioning correctly for the official launch March 21, and we expect to encounter some issues that we'll do our best to fix promptly.

I am monitoring feedback in this thread and will pass on issues reported. Patience is appreciated, we'll get there .

Any HU tables or only Zoom?

I emailed support asking if we could change our user name and still maintain our VIP status and got this response.

"We are sorry if in the previous email we did not answered your query and we are glad to respond you that our policy and license agreement in the State of New Jersey requires that every player creates only one User ID on PokerStars NJ, therefore, a change to your PokerStars UserID cannot be approved, for the same reason the players are not allowed to maintain their former VIP status, and you will start with the VIP status of Bronze."

Can you clarify please?

One of the first player names I saw: GGpartypokerNJ

I'm guessing the deposit limits ($500 for echeck seems ridic low) and lack of deposit bonus option have to do with soft-launch, could be wrong of course

sure hope I'm right

as someone else already wrote, if you log onto row ps, you will get a popup that will give you the download - taking quite awhile to finish for me.
03-16-2016 , 04:29 PM
I'm in. I was hoping our names would be separate from ROW but oh well I just added 888 to my name. Also direct bank transfer isn't working, I'm going to have to run to 7-11 I'm hoping that works.
03-16-2016 , 04:31 PM
I didn't have any way to enter my deposit bonus code.
03-16-2016 , 04:33 PM

Dylan -- could you point out where we can find the Spin&Go payout structure?

Thanks -- Max

To receive a VIP status based on your play history back in April, 2011, you have to follow the Quick Account Creation route. If you want to create a new PokerStars NJ account and choose a new UserID, you wouldn't be eligible for a VIP status upgrade.

If a player has VIP status on a current ROW account and wishes to forfeit their ROW account VIP status and 2016 yearly VPPs to their new PokerStars NJ account, this can be done by contacting vipclub@pokerstarsnj.com. StarsCoin and real money funds cannot be transferred, however.

Thanks,
Dylan

I had the same issue, so you're not alone.

they made it seem like the bonus is automatically applied....where are people sending support questions too?

dylan is it possible to raise deposit limits? will they raise on the 21st for official launch?

Not at this time. Game offering will be reviewed on a regular basis, however.

looking good PS

deposited $500 for the hell of it, hoping the deposit bonus stuff can be sorted out later
03-16-2016 , 04:40 PM
I'm assuming if we deposit the STARS600 bonus will be automatically applied since it's not giving us the option.
03-16-2016 , 04:41 PM
Dylan any answer re:Bonus code stuff
03-16-2016 , 04:42 PM

If you're unable to enter the deposit code, we will of course honour the offer and apply the bonus to you on your retroactive play if needed. I have passed this on to be looked at.

I can't get the downloads to work on a mac. Only my PC
03-16-2016 , 04:53 PM
I got a spot for the bonus code. You guys must be doing it incorrectly.

Also maybe update the OP to include a link for the download.

Had the same trouble as some people trying to find out how to take advantage of the deposit offer but find where to put in the code for it.
