Yes, it beats the hell out of the "Poker Cash Giveaways." Even if it is usually just 20c...

I'm hoping the Super Nova status will remain for another 2 months or so.
It will give people like me a shot at it; could be a once in a lifetime opportunity. (I think I can get there and be profitable doing it!)

Does anyone have any info on when they will discontinue the current VIP program?

I Posted some info regarding the situation that, you might find helpful (it's on page 99 of this thread).

"An announcement of the new rewards program launch date will be made at least two months in advance"

Thanks for the helpful info

Things are getting better. I only lost one buyin today and won 50 cent!

What are the deciding factors for what minimum level zoom you have to play? I know it used to be min 10NL for anyone but apparently this time around it is dynamic / aka for me it is still minimum 10z but was watching jason somerville yesterday and he had to play minimum 100z for the promotion , with prizes adjusted to min $2 instead of min .50 or w.e

Seems a bit cheap from them to force people to play higher for a promo based on whatever conditions they use ?



edit// nvm apparently it scales down too / based on your regular stakes / just read through thread so disregard my post should read before i post . Thought it was funny seeing jason almost down $200 at one point to try to get his $2 reward.

2nd edit// also anyone else find it a pain in the arse when your card is all one card instead of the KQJT feels like it takes ages longer

I dont know if this was posted before but someone opened a thread on the MTTc Sub-Forum about a 5x Min Cash and top 10% payouts for tournaments, i think is a very intresting concept, for more detail click here

50 cent yesterday and a buck today! I even won a buyin grinding out the promo.

On a serious roll. 5K by next week.

Have won .20 + .20 + .20 + .50 + 1 = $2.10 on this promo and lost:

you must be lucky in gettin dealt playable card hunt hands or you play any hand with the cards in it to only have 1250 hands played after 5

I've done it 4x this month and im at ~1900 hands $1 each time as well for prize (10nl)

Yeah any king or ace I'm usually 3betting

Not much help when your puzzle is all 7's

Are you regularly getting Ace/King heavy ones? Mine have been rotating between all 7's and 5,6,7,8,9.

Done it 6 times now and I've gotten either all Aces, all Kings, or Broadway.

Another 20 cent day today but I broke even

No new promo ... zzz

Surely Amaya must make more money than they spend when these cash promos with the dinky prizes are running? So wouldn't having something be better than having nothing?



In b4 my email arrives from DNegs letting me know about the $1k TCOOP ME lol (my average stake is ~$1)

WTF.
Just got a no rake instant $25 bonus off Stars for depositing $100.
Also got 10 free .50 spin and go tickets.

What's with this new generosity?

And there's a new Hold em cash game "Jacks or better" promo that's playable at all stakes.

Must say I like these new promos.

That pokerstars "giveaway" promo was absolutely woeful.

Shhhhh...keep it on the down low.

It's obvious someone working at stars has turned up to work drunk and is randomly pushing buttons, resulting in your uncommon offer. Make the most of it before stars find out and sack the person concerned.

Nothing here ()

Did you enter any Twitter comps or anything? Sounds way too generous to be a normal promo.

Sad that a $30 promo sounds unbelievable nowadays

No nothing like that.
I got a free $5 bet last week then they emailed and said it was a mistake and shouldn't have been added lol.


Wonder could this be a mistake too.

Where is my mistake?

Speaking of mistakes, I won an 82 cent share of a The Deal jackpot the other day! I played the Card Hunt three times. That jackpot share was the 2nd highest bonus between the four.

lol

Have gotten some offers before, like the free Spin & Go tickets for my birthday last October. But nothing this time, just the Jacks or Better with this points card, and this stake and payout:




Not sure how long it will take to complete the card without quads? With how slow my play is, not sure if there'll be enough time left in the day to complete this card??

I just started the challenge. I want to go to bed in an hour so I'm playing ZOOM. 200 hands so far, 230 points, up 45 cents at $10NL.

EDIT: 620 hands to get to 400 points. Almost there. Down $8.50.

Finished! Took 710 hands, approximately, in about 45 minutes (4-tabling). Lost $4.18. Hit two full-houses, a couple sets, a few fluky 2-pair hands, and a few 1-pair hands. Bonus: $1. Meh.

As a final kick-in-the-nuts, about 10 hands after finishing (after pressing "sit out next BB"), I flopped quads.

Suggestion:
I'm sick of seeing Negreanu's face when I log onto PS.
How about replacing it with something else? Like a poker chip or something.

website ou software ? never see his face on the software but email and support survey are annoying

It's going to take me about 700 as well today ...

The Jacks or Better seems to take the longest (most of the time), and the in-game Card Matches seemed to maybe take the least (most of the time)?


They seem to be asking people to maybe do a bit more, while they're paying out a bit less - this time next year, will probably have to make 5000 points for $0.25?
