Free cash on PokerStars?

[pokerdog283]

Hey thats great I wouldnt be too upset if I opened up my PS account and saw that I had new funds for free. So if PS admin reads this. Please feel free to move some additional funds into my account.
Thanks,

Ap always sends me these promotions...

another reason why I sometimes think online poker is rigged...

Wouldnt you rig online poker if you could? You know people will still deposit and you will just keep taking their money? I would do it if I was FTP, PS, or AP

Free Money? That's what I get from the folks I play;

I don't need any from the sites.....lol

 

[colquhounx]

poker stars deposited $5 into my account after i first signed up and started playing, apparently so i could lose it and deposit real money

 

[pezzeto03]

I have never had any free money thrown my way, would love it though, things have not been great lately....

 

[p0cketAz]

ive heard alot of people talk about this $5 on poker stars... yet my account is still at a profitable 0.09... still waiting for that 5'r

Sincerely, he had never heard in such a present of the PS, but a present went away do good use. Excavate that it happened with me, the fact was that I answered a questionnaire in the IntelliPoker and $ deposited 5 in my count of the PS

 

[sleepy11]

Necoloschi , are u speaking in tongues. Did u get any money or not, LOL

 

[micalupagoo]

Ive been on stars for yrs too, and I wish my balance could hit 5$, its so hard to get the initial balance from freerolls there, Ive done ok to great on almost every other site. I should just deposit cuz huge freerolls drive me crazy and I really want in the big money games

 

[Leo 50]

No money in my account either

 

[GENUCOM]

still waiting for the sites to send me some free money as well ???

 

[CJBOGGS]

You have to be a new member to get the free cash.... A new member with NO CASH DEPOSITS... if you have deposited you wont get it....

party poker has given me between 15-25 dollars on 5 occations. PDC Poker has given me 50 dollars + 500 bankroll me bonus for free. betfair 10 dollars for free. Expekt free 20 + 2 dollar tourney token. However PS has never given me anything.
Im so dissapointed

 

[skurtela]

why doesn't full tilt ever do anything like this? i got that 5 in PS but full tilt has never given out a dime. correct me if i am wrong. they should also change the minimum deposit from 50 to like 10 or 5. THEY WOULD GET SO MANY MORE DEPOSITS FROM CHEAP COLLEGE KIDS LIKE MYSELF lol

min xfer on stars

The min xfer on Stars is $10. You received funds from the site. I got $10 on Cake in just such a manner, although they usually email you ahead of time.

When did they do that. I used to Xfer 10 cents all the time

 

[odinscott]

you never know, some ppl can be generous and just randomly send money to ppl...who knows...the ghost of Poker Stars imo

you are shamwow gimmick on the other site?

 

[playsuji6]

ya!! its real i got $5 and they said you have to earn atleast 1FPP to remain this cash, so i spent that in one of the tourney and now i had it in my account.

The only site that has ever sent me anything was $5 from bodog for CASINO play only. Funny thing is - that $5 got so little play time I wonder how they think it would have enticed me to deposit? The $5 was gone in less than 5 minutes and so was their chance at ever getting me to deposit any cash in their casino games.

I still haven't played it yet...I have til Feb 9th

Stars gave me $5 and told me if I didn't win with it that I owed it back. I won 3 double or nothing games then lost it on the river in a ring game. What can I say, easy come easy go.

what? Stars told you that

Update on the $5 from PartyCasino: wagered $20+ of the $125
before going busto

 

[trucker103]

i got 5 dollars and turned it into 20.53 so far its pretty good they give u money to try to entice u to spend more i guess they didnt realize its tough to get blood out of a rock lol. so take any money the sites give u and go to the lowest buy in ring or sitngo and take a shot no fear with someone elses money gl.

No. They told you to use it or lose it. That is, if you did not play with the $5 they'd take it back. There's a big difference between playing with it and winning with it.
I forget how long they tell you you have to play with it, but my friend exceeded that and it was still in his account. It think it's an idol threat, or they give you a *lot* more time than they claim they do.

Wouldnt you rig online poker if you could? You know people will still deposit and you will just keep taking their money? I would do it if I was FTP, PS, or AP

Wrong place for this discussion, but my answer is No. You make money every hand. It's guaranteed money. And millions of people keep databases of every hand they've played, so inconsistencies will really stick out. (They can see that their draws didn't hit as often as they should have, etc.)
If you did rig it, the profitable thing to do would be to make it so that nobody goes broke. They stay in the game so they can keep playing so the rake can keep gnawing at their bankrolls, and that just doesn't happen.
