That freeroll has been posted for a long time that's why. It is no different from the other poker sites. FT and PS have freerolls consisting of 15k+ people and you only get to qualify for one that wins you actual cash.... Party has the best freerolls imho. At least you get paid for winning
Full tilt and Poker stars can start registration and have 10k + entires within about 20 mins. Also again, they are just qualifiers to other events paying very small amounts. This site is great, and poker isn't just about freerolls. I would suggest making a deposit
If you want to try making a small deposit click the bingo button in the lobby and you can deposit just £5, instead of the minimum poker deposit which is £15. You can then use that £5 to play some cash games, small tournies, SNGs or whatever you like
I tried party poker a few years ago and thought it was ok. This was before there big site upgrade and before the US government imp[osed their will on online gambling. I've been considering playing there again, but not right now.

Posted by Kristan: Ive been playing on party a lot, cleared out loads of bonuses. Have played few tourneys there - some won some final tabled, but mostly play plo 25nl there.
You want to know why it has bad reputation - imo Party poker is a big network mostly biult on gambling as it involves also Party - bingo; casino & sportsbetting. Now imagine what damage those gamblers will do when they all appear in cash tables gambling every single penny they have lol. Ofc its good at one hand as its loads of free money but then again it means huge amounts of bad beats also
Edit: and traffic in that site is really poor. eg when you play 4 tables cash and log on next day to play again multi cash its the very same players in your tables. Its like playing with 20 players and thats all.
Lol WTF how can you say the traffic at PP is poor?? it's one of the highest traffic sites there is.. 3rd I think behind only PS & FTP.. correct me if iPoker is in front of them.. but i think party still has more than iPoker, i dunno havent played at either in a while, but I know for a fact PP is NOT a low traffic site.

Try playing 25nl plo for example in partypoker! Every single day you will see the same faces in the tables and there are max 4-5 tables to play in, rest tables are empty! Im only telling this because I know it is so. I dont know about higher limits, but in cashgames that is how it is - traffic is poor atleast in PLO

one of the GOOD poker rooms in my opinion. Great freerolls with cash prizes and I kinda like the new look and software. The only thing that scares me there is the percent of the rake: 0,20c in a 0,80c amount means a 25% RAKE!!!!!!! my goodness!! thank God, I'm just playing many freerolls there and build a bankroll. I could rate it about 7/10 overall

Posted by SeanzBeanz: Hey guys, i just want to know your thoughts on Party Poker.
The site seems to have a bad rep and in my opinion i think it is a great site. They have regular freerolls. They are not bombarded with 100,000s people trying to enter $100 freerolls making it impossible to win. Their support is great. Their withdrawel system is top class. I withdrew $100 2 weekends ago over the easter bank holiday period. I put my request in on friday and by saturday it was in my account. As it was the easter weekend none of those days were business working days, so they had my request processed in ZERO working days. Most sites take forever. Party processed it within 30 hours.
I will also mention i have put ALOT of money on Party poker, i am trying to learn to play higher stakes and i like to play with good players so it is costing alot but i'm also learning alot. I've had some bad beats recently and i lost my entire bankroll. I was about 85% complete on one of my bonus' which would release another $100 into my account. I emailed their support team asking if they would manually release the bonus as i was having some bad luck. Within 30 mins they emailed me back and said that although they would not usually do this, on this occasion they will manually release the bonus so i can continue playing without having to make another deposit.
So i just wanted to know what everyone thinks about Party Poker. Why do they have akinda bad rep? What do you think? LEt me and all the other users know. Personally i think we should all be playing on party
Sean I think we all would love to play with good players, but there are a variety of players who can not control so we have to accept the situation. The ideal would be to see your opponent to know what to do or try to read in any way your game is not possible, fair competition would be ideal but this game gives for everything and is impossible to think that this happens. From each experience can make something out and hopefully can continue to learn of this game is so interesting and competitive, despite my little experience in poker I can say that the luck factor in poker go through the internet is a constant given to each time. The site is interesting, always nice to play for money in the freeroll is a textual slaughter a slaughter, I understand both player who goes all in with nothing to luck or something really crazy, my opinion is because they play good poker to improve our game, assimilation is not only money but to gain experience, my opinion would be the most important or what should prevail. The other thing that I like are the very few PartyPoint think for every dollar that is at stake, it seems 1:1?? Greetings to all and hope not to bother anyone for my poker is not poker roulette

i made a bet there ... i was on tilt ... 125 euro ... 7.5 odds i think ... and i had only 2 games left and would won the bet ... i lost one and they put the wrong result =)) too bad i lost the last one too ( felt so bad i couldnt take their money )
I like Paty Poker. Excellent design creation lobby. I changed the type of table and charts, and it was just super. The only downside, a lot of strong players, unlike ongeima or ip poker

I"ve been playing for about two weeks in Party Poker and I find it a good site. There are lots of freerolls like the $100.00, $250.00, $300.00 and the $1,000.00 mega freeroll. On top of that, they have the Bank Builder from $100.00, then the $2,500.00 up to the finals with $10,000.00 as prizes. But the biggest event of all is the WPT and WSOPQqualifiers that will give you a chance to play in those two big tournaments.
