Mansion have just given me $15 and a $200 bonus because i haven't played there for ages I've just had a bash on the speed tables for about 40mins. I now have $26. I only said to my wife last night that i might put some money back on mansion. No need now Hopefully i can grind it up to something half decent.

Good bulletooth1, Mansion is a nice room and having such a promo for calling you back it's just great. I noticed there are other rooms doing similar promos. For instance, PKR gave me 1,000 points for me to upgrade my avatar (or playing), just because i haven't played there since 2009 (time flies).

Just out of curiousity do you receive the bonus offers for sites such as this through your e-mail account? I've had a few, but never pay much attention to them since I'm here in the great U.S.A. where we can't freely choose where we'd like to play poker.
Anyway didn't mean to go off subject there! If e-mail is how they're contacting you and making bonus offers I mightstart reading them myself since things are getting better here. At least for poker!

Yeah Green. That's exactly how i learn about them. They just send you an e-mail to the address you signed up with. They are definitely worth having a look at. Sites are always doing this kind of stuff. With party poker tho i got actual letters through my door from the lovely Kara Scott telling me she misses me and to come back to her for $10 (Would be nice if it was actually from her tho. lol)
------------ Oh Green! While I've got your attention, how much is a baby ruth candy bar over there? I just bought an imported one from my supermarket to try. because i've wanted one ever since watching the goonies when i was a kid lol. It cost me £1 which is about $1.66 i think
------------ Just spent another 20 mins on the speed tables. Bankroll now at $36 Hope this trend continues

So are we going to see another breakthrough in Mansion from you again? You are going good from what you say and if you continue like this, you will clear a good chunk of the bonus too, if not all. gl with your next quest.

hey bulletman,.....I find myself automatically reading your posts with an English accent,..... problem is,.... I'm not sure which KIND of accent I should be reading in.....
...would it be a more aristocratic and stuffy sounding accent like Prince Charles Stuffington Fluffypants of Wales,....
....or one more like that Cockney sounding low life like on Coronation Street,....ay gubbna....?

You bullet I actually received the exact same thing my Kara Scott. And I thought it was personal... No more following Kara Scott on Twitter Just kidding I can't, she's hot. It was the first and only time that I received a bonus by mailing it to my home adress. I remember it was something like 10$ free and you have couple of days to clear it. 2 weeks after that I received a phone call and person talked in Dutch and tried to explain to me that Partypoker has another bonus for me (I could choose from 2 offers). Partypoker are really trying hard to let new players join and give away bonuses so that the players will stay. But I really don't like the structure of Partypoker and the graphics. Not fancy at all.

I live in the north east of England in Stockton-on-tees. So it's a slight mixture between geordie and yorkshire lol. Sounds VERY common lol

Posted by demodawggy: She's got that Coronation Street on ALL the BLOODY time,......
Nothing against bulletman,.....but all I want to do when that show comes on is put my foot through the TV....lol...
There's an English guy and his wife living next door,....he watches it too (along with Dr.Who),....he calls it "Corrie Street"....
Yeah i can't stand it either lol. We call it corrie

Yeah i don't really like partypoker either. For a massive site you would think they would have better software and graphics.
------------ What a sheet two days I've had on mansion. back down to $15 now Some sick bad beats and top two pair getting done in by sets was doing nicely in a $500 rebuy mtt this morning when i got dealt aces on the button. Guy open shoves his 33bb's from the cutoff I insta-call my 31bb's. He shows JJ (I'm thinking, what a thick fooker) then the flop comes yeah there sits a stupid J. Fook me! I'll try that tourney again tomorrow. Hope i do better in it because it's not going my way on the speed tables ATM
Good luck all.
