PartyPoker
Many online poker sites that are successful abroad have been jockeying for position with existing casinos and gambling entities in the USA. They are doing so for a day they believe is inevitable and coming soon: the day that online casinos for USA players become legal. This has been going on for quite some time now as names like 888 Holdings have already linked up with land based casinos in America. While it doesn’t necessarily mean that the site and casino will enter into an agreement, the chance is there if regulation should occur.
The most recent news is that Bwin.party has entered into an agreement with the United Auburn Indian Community (UAIC). The UAIC owns and operates the Thunder Valley Casino Resort in Lincoln, CA. Bwin.party believes that since California has the largest state population in America while also housing many professional poker players, this endeavor will be a good one for them.
The UAIC and Bwin.party entered into an agreement to offer online poker in California in preparation for the potential enactment of intrastate legislation. UAIC would…

Read MorePartyPoker is known for having a great no download free casino as well as excellent poker action. While they have made a name for themselves as a safe and trusted place for gambling, Black Friday has them setting even loftier goals. The April indictments have given them the chance to gain new customers that may have had their confidence shaken when it comes to Full Tilt or PokerStars.
One of PartyPoker’s recent promotions is the Big Draw. All you have to do is play real money poker to earn points, and then you receive tickets for daily prize draws. There are over $500k in prizes available, and it’s no surprise that some of them are fantastic! For example, you could win an iPhone 4 or a 46 inch Sony TV! You don’t win these kind of prizes using Bingo codes, that’s for sure.
Draws take place daily. You are entered in the daily draw as long as you earn at least one ticket the day of the draw. The cool thing is that all the tickets you used…

Read MoreHave you heard of the Big Game? Chances are that if you have had the chance to download PokerStars, you know all about their TV show called the Big Game. Did you know that there is also a Big Game on PartyPoker? Since PartyPoker isn’t open to Americans, it is not so prevalent in North America. The site is open to Canadians, though, so it’s time to give Canadians the chance to learn about TV’s other Big Game.
The PartyPoker Big Game takes place in Nottingham England, and it consists of a 48-hour cash game marathon. This is no normal cash game, however. Every few hours, players at the table actually vote to eliminate one of the other players! Watching certain players get kicked off the table because they are simply making too much money is definitely entertaining.
It comes as no surprise that PartyPoker, being one of the best Euro poker sites online, always gives its players the chance to play with the pros. From March 21st to April 3rd, you can win the chance to play…
