Yea the rewards are a joke, but I think at Borgata it is around 20% when you count the comp money they give you when you reach the highest level, but I may be wrong, the rewards system is hard to understand.

Still have not heard back from support will call again today just wanted to show the comparison with Party poker international and what we get here in the states. The vast comparison in shocking enough.



Also they have $500 sign up we have $100. Not to concerned with sign up but the VIP system over there is alot better then what we are getting.

Nope it is no longer like that for international players (because I play there). We have like 23 % at best (source : http://www.pokerolymp.com/articles/s...r#.UrDRxvRDuuo ). The velcome bonus is 50$ for new accounts and they blocked many countries from playing anyway.

The data you have are at least 8 months old cause Party significantly decrease the value of bonuses and we don't have insta cash anymore).

Thanks for the update yea parties website is blocking me and redirecting to the NJ site. Though 23% is alot better then 8%. Do your points carry over after a quarter?

Yes haven't heard about point expiring. There is the expiring thing when you don't play for 6 months or so? However thats not an issue. You can lose your status but you keep your points (at least thats how it works on com)
BTW to get 23% you have to rake like 150k $ in a year? so on a level of SNE o stars so no matter how you look at this it is bad.

Realistically 18-20% is max rakeback you can get even as a pro so it isn't really that much better to be honest.

Willing to wager my entire point balance (~2.6k) against anyone else's (don't care if it's less) that points do not get wiped out every quarter. PM me if interested.

Also, "rakeback" is 10%, idk how you guys are getting this wrong?

2 points/$1 in rake, so 1 point = $0.50 in rake.

2,000 points = $100 in "rakeback".

2,000 points at $0.50 per point = $1,000 in rake paid.

$1,000/$100 = 10%.

Its actually $1,000/$100 bonus you will actually be raked $1250 before you have the full $100 in your account so $100/$1250 = .08 or 8%. Sorry to ruin your bet but.

Dear Matthew,

Thank you for contacting Customer Service.

Please accept our apologies for the delayed reply.

Your points will remain in your account until you use them, or until they expire. For points to expire, you need to be inactive for quite a long time, so I do not think this would be a problem for you. Still, you can check the details about this by visiting the link below (Inactivity section):

http://nj.partypoker.com/terms-and-c...onditions.html

The points only start counting from zero each month towards your loyalty level status - e.g. you need to earn 1000 points each month to retain your Palladium status. So yes, if you earn 10000 points each quarter and don't use them (and they don't expire), you will have 40000 points, and you will be able to use them to buy a TV that costs this much.

In case you have further questions, we will be more than happy to assist you. We are available 24/7.

Thank you for choosing us as your online gaming site.

Best regards,

Nasko,

Customer Service


Gamble Responsibly
Guess like alot of people will be getting TVs :P.

I made Palladium today and am not sure what if anything it's worth. Thinking it might make more sense to switch to the Borgatapoker client just for the total rewards points.

Anyone analyzed the differences and have an opinion on which is better?

Do the total rewards need redemption in the store? Or do you get them in addition? The way I read it, you need to turn the pts in to get comp dollars.

Even if you were the highest tier, the rewards are not that good on Borgata.

At Black Label Elite the $5 comp costs you $33 in rake. That would be about 15% rakeback. For the $25 cash it is about 5% rakeback. If comp dollars are your thing, go with Borgata.

If you are Black Card Elite you would choose $25 Poker Bonus over $25 Cash because you would be raking enough to rapidly clear them so you end up with 15% in cash (via bonus) or 15.15% in comp dollars.

Well that means Borgata is the better deal if you can get to Black Label Elite. Thanks for clearing this up.

From the math I did at the very top level at borgata you get 15% rakeback.
