Party lost my business forever over Party lost my business forever over

Wow can't believe how many people think the OP should just accept that a site basically ripped him off and stop being "petty".

People really seem to have lowered their standards.

Well done OP, give your business to a company that isn't shady and actually cares about customer service. Like you said, if they will screw you over 6 bucks at the craps table, what happens when their software malfunctions during a $100k poker tournament etc?

But funny enough, I think we are "friends" on UP. I was at the final table of that $50, boozed up, and gift wrapped you a bunch of chips pushing JTo and running into your KK. Or maybe that was someone else lol

They didn't screw him, they are guillty of not having traditional rules, not posting this fact clearly for OP to read without actually reading the rules, and not allowing OP to free roll them.

If you knew anything about craps you'd know what the "off button" is for. It signifies that place bets can't win or lose on the come out roll. The graphics cleatly show an off button. They still haven't told me exactly what the purpose off them having sn off button graphic is. Whst exactly is off then?

I dealt craps, at the Taj for 4 years and was a craps pit boss in Louisiana for 6 more years. I am well aware of the rules of the game. Any rule that is different should be clearly marked in the game itself. If you had any understanding of the game you would understand my point.

Yes, I am a novice at craps. I always assumed the primary reason for the on/off puck was to show if the point was established or not.

Am i understanding this correctly, you put out $6 worth of bets, expecting them to all be no action untill the point is established? What is the logic behind this decision?

You roll a 9 to establish the point. You bet $3 each on the 6 and 8, now you roll another 9 so you win on the pass line. Your bets on the 6&8 stay there but are off on the come out roll.

You don't want to be bothered pulling your bets down and putting them back, and the casino wants to facilitate you keeping bets on the table.

I also asked with the button saying off, what exactly was off if all the bets were on.
It's your fault you didn't read their rules for the game. You should demand an answer for the button issue imo, and if you don't like where the rules are placed then you should write to gaming and ask them to make stricter regs in reguards to where rules need to be placed.

Did you read their poker rules to make sure a straight doesn't beat a flush on their site?

That may sound silly, but its a basic rule of the game, just like place bets being off on the come out roll.

Lol I think they are trolling you at this point.

Anyone who has ever played craps knows these bets should be off unless you specifically tell them you want them on, on the come out.

I am wondering since you actually saw an "off" icon, if they require you to click that to toggle the bet off on the come out? Terrible design if true, but can't understand why the word off would be there otherwise.

This is why I have 40 posts in 10 years.

Was surprised to see player "RounderAK" giving partypoker a little action in the tourneys lately.

Surely it couldnt be OP, maybe there's a typo or someone stole his sn or something?

Since this thread was started, 23 tourneys, almost $400 in total buyins.

If this is OP, might want to change title of thread.

As I stated, I withdrew from Party and left my money on Borgata, which I know still gives Party money, but I'm assuming less of it. I'm playing much less on Borgata than I did prior to this. 888 and UP are getting 95% of my play.
03-30-2014 , 03:02 AM
Does borgata not have the same craps rules as party?

Pretty crazy that Partypoker is able generate revenue from players even after "losing their business FOREVER"

Can someone explain the difference between party nj and Bprgata?

I assumed players were pooled, same bonuses, etc....sort of just a licensing/affiliate partnership.

Looks like when it comes to NJ Poker, I'm the only one who says what they mean

I haven't played on PartyPoker for one second after losing their $25 of free money at PLO

What is your issue with PartyPoker?

Are you including Borgata with Bwin.party?

I dislike them both equally.

Started with Borgata not giving me the free money for signup like advertised. People said you have to email them ten times or call to get but screw that.

Then I hate the cash game lobby and the initial "lies" by the Party Rep saying it was a DGE thing. It's just meant to generate more games and more rake at the expense of giving players what they want and also makes getting less popular games such as Stud off the ground.

Yes, they have the biggest Sunday tourney but other than that the tourney schedule is very bland.

And I think the software is clunky dogchit.

I'm a black card at the Borgata and they had to work hard to not get my business. And they did that. Maybe the difference in expectations hurt them the most. Prior to the handling of their chip scandal, I always thought the Borgata was a top notch professional room. I expected much more out of them.

Where's a rep on here to speak on behalf of his company? That is the most important issue here. If OP is lying he should defend his company. If his company is wrong then he should apologize and make OP whole.

The fact that they post nothing shows a contempt for their player base and with an attitude like this the company will never go far.
