P.S. Cash card offer expires February 4th, so get in now. And watch for our new $100,000.00 freeroll. See the site for details.

To report my experience:
I registered and used the code (which I X'ed out, it looked unique). I would have stopped if they asked for any bank or credit card info, but they didn't. The code got me $20, which I'm about to try out on their tables.

So look out for an email in the account you had registered with Paradise.

Well, they have a nice lobby - good game filtering. Their lowest limits are .10/.20 NL or .25/.50 L. 4 full tables of .10/.20NL going, acceptable players/flop.

The dealer at each table is their hot spokesmodel with huge avatar tits, which is nice. Graphics are decent. No animations. Windows do not pop to the front or chime when it's your turn. 4 color decks.

Basic functionality seems more like poker contests on beer sites than what we are used to, but, yaknow, free money. Still looking for a rake schedule.

Thanks! I am going to go look in that e-mail account now!

Play seems to be fairly tight with a few fish. A guy overvalued his KQo at me twice in a round and he deemed me a "card catching cunt." (My avatar is female, haven't looked into changing it yet.)

LOL!

I have nothing in my e-mail as of yet!

[johnny]

All I know is that if I had a cunny that could catch cards I wouldn't be wasting my time playing internet poker.

They seem to be going after players. I'm wondering if they wouldn't mail you a code if you write support and ask for one.

I played a few rounds and won $7.30. I have $8.30 of my $27.30 balance available for withdrawal so you do have to clear it. Not sure what the clearance rate is, but it seems to be low and releases incrementally.

[johnny]

Hmmm, maybe I got the cash offer because I used up all my Paradise points when we got kicked out.

I got the same email as johnny. I didn't want to deposit anything though. They're just giving away 20 bucks? What's this about 250?

[johnny]

I think I used my points to enter tournaments or something before vacating Paradise for good.

You don't know how much you get until you sign up and use the code. You can get up to $250. I got $20. I suspect most of them are around $20. Any less and you wouldn't even have 1 full buyin for the lowest limit NL table.

I can't remember my logon info so I'm having to go through that process...will update...

If you got the same email I did, well, I had to create an account from scratch. It never said anything about my Paradise log in.

[mewsiclovr]

There's a thread on 2p2 where you could use your paradise login...but yeah I had to create a new one. Still waiting for PIN number. And the site seems ungodly slow.
