I didn't know Party poker put a time limit of only 24 hours on a bonus but I have noticed that some casino bonuses go directly on your balance and some you have to opt into which can be a nuisance if you are not aware of the specific terms.I always make sure I look at the terms of all the bonuses just in case I get lumbered with one I don't want.
Do you think they maybe do it that way, so you'll not easily notice losing more than the $2 they added, from your bankroll, while playing the casino? Usually a bonus will only add to your balance after you've cleared the points requirement.

I hope you got a lesson there. Almost every site has expiry dates in their tickets or promotions. Such days the some of them have very short time in their requirements. First thing you should do is check when they expire.

I find very funny having a bonus as a gift. I got a $1.00 bonus but have to make 6 points to clear the bonus. You pay $3.00 of rake and i will give you back $1.00 as a gift.
Anybody wants to give me $50.00 i will give you back$10.00 as a gift.

If you don't have any bonus' you are clearing and you are playing the site anyway, thats an ok prize imo. Those ones aren't helping me though cause i have like 7 actives bonus' running atm and wont make enough points to clear most of em.
It is the casino ones i have issues with mainly though

Exactly. It's 33% rakeback. It is much better than any other bonuses I've been getting; mostly you only get $1 per 8 points (which is 25% rakeback) with bonuses. In case you have another bonus running, it might be better to pause it, and finish the Christmas ones first. I already had 3 $1 bonuses, finished 2 of them, and then it's back to the Halloween mission bonuses.

...without reading the various stipulations burried somewhere,...you would at least think the ticket or prize would at LEAST be good for the duration of the promo... but ya,...they dangle the cash in your face, then 'snatch' it back...
...oh well,... I guess it was originally meant to be spent in the casino,...in which I never frequent,...or have even been... I figure they're like the 'crack dens' of gambling....

Jerks, a prize is a prize. Why would they give you time to play a GIFT? A gift is a gift and I can do whatever I want with it. Imagine them giving you 1000$ GIFT and after 5 minutes, they take it back.
< Oh well... next time I will know better...!
