Party Poker Attempts To Attract "Better" Poker Players
August 31, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
Party Poker, an online poker website, has a reputation of having many loose poker players that an educated poker player would laugh at, while taking their money. On any given day you can find up to 60,000 poker players sitting at a virtual card table playing for real or fake money. When a poker player thinks about Party Poker, they think about "fish". According to www.killfishpoker.com a "fish" in poker terms is a loose player who often does not know the game of poker very well, and this results in them losing all their chips. Being the largest card room in the world, it would make sense if Party Poker had the greatest number of bad players.In attempt to attract better poker players, known as "Sharks" Party Poker is offering new players incentives to come check out the poker action. New players can not only take advantage of the "fish" but also a variety of bonus offers. Upon signing up for an account on Party Poker the user is asked it they have a sign up bonus code. These codes offer new players bonuses for special occasions such as this one. To attract better players Party Poker is offering three new bonus codes. First, when a new user inputs sign up code KILLFISH25 they will receive $25 extra towards their first deposit. If the user wants to deposit a more significant amount of money the new user can use bonus code KILLFISH100, which gives the user an extra 20% bonus on their deposit up to $100 in free money. Last, if the user prefers tournament play, they can obtain a free satellite tournament entry to the Party Poker 5 Cruise, a World Poker Tour Event, by using sign up bonus code PPM5.
These codes are enticing new players to come prey on the "fish". According to one online player, "Party Poker works like a food chain, all the money travels from the little weak fish to the strong experienced sharks".
