I got credit for my first batch. I am back in the micro PLO cash game.

I mailed in my first 4 today 4/29. I will update when I get credit for these.

Welcome to GP. I remember you from (I think) Big Ugly Poker.

hi banger, yes its me from big ugly poker. good to see your still around my old friend.

Do they issue credits at a regular schedule or is it random? I received credits on the 15th and thought I might get a little more on the 3oth but did not.

avg is 3 weeks, so probably later this week.

Thanks!

Got some love in my poker account this morning!

Yeah I got credited for sweeps I mailed less than a month ago!

They must be catching up with the backlog. I received a large credit and now am caught up on envelopes sent through 4/14.

How do you guys/gals track your play through? Can you go in the account and check debits or do you just have to guesstimate?

I might be late to the party on this question but has anyone had trouble with sending too many envelope requests? I guess, what is to keep someone from sending 100 envelopes a week?

I realize there is play through but putting in a little volume shouldn't be too difficult.

Yup. In a few months you'll get an email about it and then eventually your envelopes you send wont get credited anymore. Had over 1000 envelopes thrown out because I was sending too many. Now they won't credit any amount even if I send 20 a week.

Followed all the rules- they just dont like when you abuse it.

What did the email actually say, and how many were you sending in? I have not had a problem, but I've had a few weeks sending in 100.

I can confirm this as well. I sent around 80 a few weeks in a row and got the email banning me from sending anymore. I wouldn’t risk doing more than a few per week if you want to keep getting free SC.

Further support that doing these in volume is a fools errand.

I can confirm this too, I began reading this thread months ago and took 2 weeks vacation from my job to crank out volume. Later received an email that my acct got banded.

What did they tell you was the reason?

They give you some reasoning how it's unfair to other players, and sending too many is circumventing the purpose of the "promotion". They also act as if its impossible to be sending so many as a human and not a machine. I had very few weeks that I had sent over 200. But there were times where I hit 300 a week, too. But I didnt have issues and actually dropped my volume to closer to 100 a week and thats when they starting denying all of my envelopes I sent in.

Id say the safe amount would be something like 60-80 a week at the most. Anything more and you risk either having your account banned, sweepstakes privilege's revoked, and they won't credit you for the months behind in credits either.

So this must be why they are being processed faster. They straight up denied tens of thousands of envelope requests from frequent senders, and either banned users or removed their AMOE entries.

It is unfair to other players. They could be offering rakeback and other promotions but instead people are leeching off them sending in thousands of postcards in order to pay their bills. Get a job to pay your bills.

$1500 a week. To bad the party is over. Time to get a job.

This is where you're wrong. They have to provide these free sweeps to be a legal sweepstakes.

Also, the party isn't over. There are many other sweepstakes sites owned by VGW as well as several others.

300 envelopes is less than 25 hours a week. It was money I'd throw into crypto. Certainly never considered it a job. I only did 300 a week a few times. I mostly averaged 100 a week

They shut you down here they'll and shut you down there if you take advantage of it. VGW knows you're the same person. Most other sweepstakes are designed so you can't practically take advantage of them and if you do find one they will shut you down too. Companies are not in business to give you free money. Good luck.

They would not.be in existence of they didn't give out free money. Sweepstakes is fundamental to the business model.

Can one of you guys that got shut down just search your email to find the note they sent you and then post here?

I find it hard to believe that anyone got shutdown solely because of volume without seeing the actual correspondence.

Thanks in advance...

2 others tho.

They are single post accounts that were created this month (likely today). I suspect they are both BeerDrunker. Either way, it looks fishy.
