Did you do it via the App store or the link Coasterbrad gave?

Hmmm... where you seeing that? The Apple page or the 888 page? I don't see it.

If you are playing on Party Poker do NOT opt out of your deposit bonus.

I opted out to switch to another bonus and it said I could opt back in but it just disappeared. Online chat with party got the "we'll look into it and get back to you" response.

Also I can't figure out how to add myself to a waiting list. Do they even have waiting lists?

If all the tables are full it puts me on an empty table. So if there is not enough traffic to get a new game going I can't get into the ones that are running.

I did it from the App Store. Only problem is I played like 2 hands and then it could't verify my location on the iPad... I never had any problems with location verification on my laptop. Went back on there and was fine.

Given that the soft opening was Thursday night, and this is only Tuesday afternoon, I highly, highly doubt there has been any cashout experiences posted ITT; I don't recall seeing any.

However, you can probably find lots of info on how the NV WSOP cashes have been in their 2+2 subforum.

Is there any difference at all between signing up through/using Party Poker vs Borgata Poker? I see that they it's the same players but like is there differences with promos or anything like that?

Worst case scenario, just go to the affiliated casino and cash out ;p

Anyone thinking Borgata will be the major player in nj online poker (not Wsop.com and ceasers/harrah) should look into BYD (10.45) as a possible stock play. Even though its fundamentals suck. do your due diligence .

according to Party's FAQ, if geolocation fails while you're in a tournament, "your active hand will be folded, and you will be ranked immediately as if you have lost all your chips in the very same hand."

That is HARSH, especially in light of the numerous issues in the earlygoing. Is this the same across all sites? Is blinding a player out against the states regulations??

My Norton software flagged it and deleted it automatically. LOL

I waited until today to play. I signed up for Party and holy crap does the software suck. Fails to respond half the time, buttons disappear, buttons don't work... just awful. Can't believe their software has gotten so much worse since they were in the U.S. years ago. Was hoping to hold out for affiliate deals but may have to just make accounts on other sites anyway.

Yeah it's definitely harsh but I'd imagine the NJDGE would only support immediate termination of any player "found" to be located out of state. I'm curious as to if they would ever accept GPS data from cell phones in order to more accurately locate their clients. Those located deep into New Jersey should see improvements over time but tower triangulation just isn't accurate enough for most border residents.

That's where I live and have had very little success on my desktop using a WiFi adapter. When you went to your friends house, did you use your own laptop with wireless network or your friends desktop with a WiFi USB adapter ?

Just tried.

Software recognizes the bank account number the second time I enter it, but not the first -- even though they are the same.

Nothing but problems so far with Borgata unfortunately.

Yes, they have different promos/bonuses/rewards. Same software and same player pool though.

I've had a few problems. I have a retina display macbook pro. I've downloaded Borgata and Party (identical obviously), and they work fine except for not being able to see the cards! I can see the card on the right fine, but if I'm not paying attention when they are dealt I can barely make out the card on the left in my hand. When I play the client in my browser, it works fine...though I'd prefer to use the application obviously. Anyone have an idea how to fix this?

As for WSOP...I see the link on the right of the screen. I click on it, and I am on a page that says "download started"....but nothing is happening. Cleared all my cookies and cache....but I can't download the client at all!

Help!

I cannot get verified on borgata. My SSN is coming up as unverified but I have uploaded documents (driver's license and credit card) and called twice. Trying a third call now.

I've had no luck logging into WSOP. Well, I log in, it shows my account and balance in the top right corner but it can't verify my location. Frustrating as it seems that's where the most/bigger games are running. Same with 888. What is weird is that I downloaded the 888 app and that can't verify my location either. Frustrating. I'm in Toms River, on wifi, it's driving me crazy. I log into Ultimate Poker just fine, but can't get into Borgata either.
