A quick update...

Well June is coming to an end and with it the Grand Opening we had.  Were we a little disappointed at "Grand Opening" activity?  Sure we were.  But we get it.  Rome wasn't built in a day.  We've said all along our intent was to build trust and that comes with time.  While activity was light, we did process dozens of withdrawals and there isn't any better way to build trust that speedy withdrawals.  But I must say that if you're a poker player, you missed out on the awesome rake back deal we had going on. Welcome bonus plus the Race for Rakeback equaled 90% rake back for some players.

But we move forward.

Site changes.

We now have 10 chip, 25 chip and 100 chip freerolls.  But they are for players only.  Each require more play to qualify.  But it isn't hard.  the 10 chip freerolls can probably be achieved in 20-30 minutes playing 20NL, The 25 chip freeroll was easily achieved in 1 session of 20NL by several players.  In any case, All of these freerolls will start with only 2 players, so in this case the early bird(s) really will catch the worm.
More information on the freerolls and how to qualify are in the POP-UP site news when you log in.

What happened to the unrestricted 5 chip freeroll?
It's gone.  It served no other purpose than to be a BTC faucet for a handful of players.  we're told all the time that we need freerolls so people can try out the site, but it really never works out that way.  Heck we even had people playing our freeroll, always immediately withdrawing (which is of course fine), but then bad mouthing us in the chat!  I mean really?

The unrestricted freerolls served zero marketing effect and none of the participants used that experience to "test" us out, and then played and significant real games.  We would much rather give these chips to loyal players.

TurnTrips is for Poker Players
We are starting to pick up some activity, mostly at the 10nl and 20nl and in the US mornings.  It is nice to have 4 or 5 players.  But we want more.  If your a real poker player and you want to be rewarded for your loyalty, I ask you to give us a shot.  The Freerolls are only the beginning.  We will always find ways to reward loyalty, and we have more ways coming soon.

We also have our 100% Welcome bonus, which is a bonus that your earn as you play up to 2 BTC.  This bonus never expires, and will be added to your account with every deposit up to 2 BTC, regardless of how long it takes.  It's a great way to try us out with a small deposit, but still maximize the bonus down the road when we earn your trust.

Hope to see you at the tables!
