So ridiculous

Why would that be a problem for Party, it's a freeroll for them?

EDIT: In case anyone doubts it, I do realize who's at the negative end of said freeroll.

Party let someone play with a stolen credit card and punish other players who couldn't know about it. Come on; who's really surprised it happened on this site?

Hi,
Thank you for this attempt of poor communication, but this is complete bull*****.
Most of this post is totally wrong.

- The banks are the ones who are going to pay back the owners of the credit cards, not partypoker.

- Partypoker or the different skins may have to pay a chargeback from the banks, if they didn't bother to setup an insurance scheme, but in any case it is not the players who should take care of this situation, caused by partypoker total lack of control on the deposit and account creation processes.

- some accounts belonging to regulars are still locked, some of them being palladium elite players (is this how you treat your most valuable customers?), while at the same time some old fraudulent accounts are still playing. Your investigation is NOT over.

- your confirmation about the fund taken back is ridiculous. First of all, how can you seize money won fair and square on the tables, especially when money lost against a fraudulent account is not reimbursed. Secondly, pretty much all regs are complaining that partypoker sized MORE than what was won. It's even worse for some players who are net losers against the fraudulent accounts but still got decent sums confiscated. One reg says he lost 10k against the fraudulent accounts but his account was reopened with another 12k missing! Wtf?

The first time they ran this promo they didn't randomize it and column 3 ended with up all the rare cities.

Juk

check if your vip countdown prizes have been awarded correctly cause I received 400$ and not 750$ this week neither the 1000$ extra for the every day 1000 pts

waiting support answer

nvm last post I missed 1.2 pt last day ahaahhahah

The Site should take some strong measures to act against such organized syndicate activities. As long as it punishes only the truly involved ones and let go of others, its fine and that is what Party did, in my humble opinion.

I followed this issue from very early days as I have some friends in France. They joined the festival when it was at its peak and played stake they never ventured. Few got lucky and ac or party did not touch them. There is some dramatization going on those forums and they people crying about a misdealt hand are not the most innocent.

I started a thread last month and their CS said they are looking into it etc. Nice that it is over.

true but if it was the other way around (cheater winning) be sure that party would take the cheater's profits and distribute them equally to the players affected by him!

party.fr shouldnt bring his aids itt

Was it supposed to be a sarcasm? It sounds like you really believe it...

maybe column 2 this time?

Block all players east of Germany. Simples.

Oh man that's gotta hurt

Can you not try and plead with support?

Why the f do some tourney tables not pop up automatically when they start and I have to go looking for them and manually open the table.

can we please have a real replayer in the client like stars and ftp?

Is it me or have all the bounty and shootout tournaments been removed?

Not that they were any good...

The HU tournaments appear to have been cut as well.

Ah, now I get you! I was referring to the lack of players/flop stat on the cash game listings so I got confuzzled.

Hi,

According to French law, the poker room on which fraudulent deposits took place (PMU here - not PartyPoker) have to pay back the banks. The banks will then pay the players. This is what you call "chargeback".
All fraudulent accounts are closed. The only remaining closed accounts have been called, and will be called again if they didn't pick up the phone, to explain the situation.

We cannot reveal the details of any specific accounts but we can confirm again that the amount seized match exactly the winnings against fraudulent players minus the rake paid.

Thanks,

PartyPoker

What happens to the players that these rogue accounts won money from?

Hi,

Please be advised that this issue only affects players that are logged in as play money players - this will not affect real money players.

Thanks

i want to play huge amount of hands at partypoker but it feels very hard, here is why:

for every single table i start, here is what i need to do:

1) click wait for big blind
2) post big blind
3) post small blind (+ click ok), unless i was fast enough to click auto post blinds, which is close to impossible when masstabling with stack

that is 4 clicks for every table before I am in the process of continuous hand dealing

to someone this might seem like a small deal, but I don't want to spend a huge amount of time clicking buttons, when things like this should be automatic!

also for every time a table requires me to wait for big blind or to post my blinds, the action is stolen from the tables I already have up and running, causing me to fold hands if I don't act inhumanly quick! This is a huge issue, and you can't blame it on the players.


This is a enormous hassle just for me to sit down and play some poker, something must be done!

I would understand things like this if it was the year of 1998 and poker software just launched, but I can play 40 tables on pokerstars with a few mouseclicks in TOTAL, doing this on partypoker I need to click 40x4 -> 160 mouse clicks before I am sitting and playing.


You should make it at least manually selectable in options to "always wait for big blind", "always post blinds", it's a absolutely horrendous excuse to not have this as a option - all you do is chase away people who want to play poker without clicking hundred times before being able to.

And the very least you should make possible is to put in a "wait for big blind" box among with the "auto post blinds" boxes.

I have used computers all my life and I'm very quick at doing things - but partypoker makes me want to bang my head in to a wall with this ridicilous prompting of actions, at least give us the chance to just sit down and play poker!

I would play on partypoker insanely much if it didn't make a living hell for me to start up a session!

Also there is a bug when stacking tables, even if I got the box ticked to stay in focus until action is complete, suddenly another table can pop right up in front, and that's just insanely dangerous bug

right based on my hits i make these the rarest for each country

France - Bordeaux
England - Nottingham
Russia - Saint Petersburg
Germany - Leverkusen

Argentina - Buenos Aires or Cordoba ?
Colombia - Bogota or Medellin ?
Canada - Vancouver
USA - Los Angeles

Japan - Yokohama
India - Bangalore
China - Shenzen
Soth Korea - Seoul

South Africa - Durban
Ghana - Kumasi
Ivory Coast - Yamoussoukro
Senegal - Saint-Louis



If anyone has these please post as it probably means you or me have a rare city. Exception being the 2 countries im unsure on obviously, but post to fill those in.
