Party poker NJ: New player bonus

All online poker sites work hard to recruit new players. Partypoker offers two incentives for new customers: free cash and a large first deposit bonus.

Partypoker NJ $25 free bonus

Partypoker gives the incentive to sign up in the form of a $25 bonus using the promo code PLAYNJCASH .

As a new customer, party poker disperses the bonus in three ways:

• $10 for use at the poker tables.
• $5 for special big money tournaments.
• $10 for playing online casino games.

No deposit is necessary to receive this $25.

First deposit match bonus, up to $1,000

When you do make your first deposit, party poker will give you a bonus match of up to $1,000. That sounds like a lot of money, and it is, so there are some terms and conditions.

The bonus is a matching bonus, which means the amount will be the same as the amount of your first deposit. If you deposit less than $1,000, your bonus will be less.

When you play poker for real money, partypoker will credit your account with points.

You earn two points for every dollar you pay in cash game rake or tournament fees. You need to accumulate four points for every bonus dollar.

Party poker pays the bonus out in 10 equal parts.

So, if you make a $500 deposit, you will receive 10 bonus payments of $50. To earn each $50 payment, you will need to earn 50 x 4 = 200 points.

A quick calculation shows that the bonus is equivalent to 50% in rakeback payments since you will need to pay $100 in rake or tournament fees to earn 200 points.

By comparison with other offers, that is a good rate. Once you have earned your bonus installment, you can use it to play or cash it out.

Get started at partypoker online

Now that you’re ready to give partypoker a try, you need to register as a new player. Follow our links here to open your party poker New Jersey account.

The site will initially prompt you to download the party poker client, which only takes a minute or so depending on the speed of your internet connection.

Software options include Mac and PC, as well as apps for mobile devices. We recommend that you use your computer to establish your new account and download the appropriate mobile app later. You will use the same login details for both.

Once installed, you must enter your details on the registration page, which is a requirement by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement.

Then choose a password and screen name and enter the party poker New Jersey promo code PLAYNJCASH in the code field.

That's it; you are ready to hit the tables. But remember, if you want the free $25, you must verify your account first.

To legally play poker in NJ, you must be at least 21 years or older and be physically present in New Jersey. Geolocation software ensures that partypoker doesn't break the law by allowing players not inside the state borders to play.

Partypoker New Jersey promotions

Alongside the new player offers, party poker offers many more promotions. Some are long-term offers and others are for a short period, often to help promote a tournament series or other special events. The longer-term offers include:

• Weekly Reload Bonus: You should check your account during the week when partypoker will offer a reload bonus based on your play and deposit history. You must clear the bonus, but it is an ideal way to get a financial boost when you put extra cash in your account before the weekend.
• Click & Win: Every Sunday, party poker gives you a “clickcard" where you simply click to reveal a prize. Prizes include casino and reload bonuses. You need to opt-in to this promotion every week.
• Sit and Go Leaderboards: Sit and gos are intensely competitive, and some players play very high volumes. Partypoker offers a leaderboard where the winners receive cash prizes. Every week there is $2,000 to be won with prizes separated by low-stake and high-stake tournaments.

Party poker NJ VIP program

With partypoker's loyalty program, even casual poker players get a financial reward. The reward is set as a percentage of the amount of rake or tournament fees you have paid while you play.

The scheme is split into four levels, with higher rewards for the higher levels. You reach each level by earning a pre-set number of points, which is set monthly.

The party poker NJ VIP rewards scheme levels, qualifying points and value are:

• Bronze: All players begin at this level. No points required. The rewards worth 6.7% rakeback.
• Silver: You must earn a minimum of 50 points per month. The rewards are worth up to 15.4% rakeback.
• Gold: You must earn a minimum of 750 points per month. The value of the rakeback is a maximum of 20.5%.
• Palladium: The highest VIP level comes after you earn a minimum of 2000 points per month. This level offers an extremely valuable level of rakeback value to a maximum of 30.7%

Party poker New Jersey poker software

The basics of party poker's client are state of the art. Since GVC bought the company in 2015, there has been a renewed focus on ensuring that partypoker remains one of the top global online poker rooms. That means it has excellent software.

The settings menu is accessible from the cogwheel icon at the top right of the poker lobby. It allows substantial levels of customization. Table themes, colors, card effects, multi-tabling options, sound effects and more are all available.

The multi-tabling options even have a tick box to format tables across multiple monitors; this is how the pros do it.

If you do multi-table, and even casual players enjoy playing more than one table at a time, be aware of the “hot hand" options. You can specify hands where you want to pay particular attention. When a hot hand is dealt at one of your tables, the table color changes, there is a sound alert and the focus switches straight to your hot hand table.

It is also worth looking at the options for bet sizing. You can use your mouse to increment or reduce bets by pre-set amounts from the scroll wheel, and you can set your pot percentages for the quick bet buttons on each table window.

The software has all the facilities you could ask for and it works smoothly and efficiently. Beginners can learn to use it almost instantly, while hardcore grinders can set it up to meet their exacting requirements.

Download the Partypoker app in NJ

The party poker mobile apps are available for both Apple and Android phones and tablets. Almost all the desktop options are available in the mobile versions.

To download the PartyPoker iPhone/iPad or Android app, simply navigate to the site while on your device and follow the links to download. Follow the prompts to download the iOS or Android app.

Betting, folding and raising are as easy on the mobile app as they are on the desktop. The one area where the mobile app is weak is multi-tabling.

The reality is that small screens and several tables mean that tiling is not an option. The active table will automatically come to the front for you to act if you do multi-table on your mobile.

Party poker makes it surprisingly easy to play online mobile poker. Instead of clicking the mouse, taps and swipes are effective in keeping the action going. The table design ensures that everything is visible even for older players with weaker eyesight.

Poker games at party poker NJ

The three main poker formats are cash games, multi-table tournaments and sit and gos (SNG). Partypoker NJ offers a great selection for all formats.

Partypoker NJ cash games

King of online poker is no-limit hold'em (NLHE). Partypoker offers the perennial favorite at stake levels from $0.01/$0.02 to $25/$50. Heads-up games are not available, partly as part of party's recreational player policy.

New players are too easy to exploit if they play mano a mano. The usual 6-max and nine-player full-ring tables are open at all stakes.

Other cash game variants on offer are:

• Limit hold’em
• Pot-limit hold’em
• Pot-limit Omaha (PLO)
• Pot-limit Omaha hi-lo
• 7 card stud
• Seven card stud hi/lo

Table availability at multiple stake levels is limited for these games. PLO is the most popular alternative to NLHE, and there are usually several tables available at low to mid stakes.

Cash game liquidity at partypoker NJ is a weak point. This could change soon if Pennsylvania joins with New Jersey, Nevada and Delaware in the Multi-State Internet Gaming Agreement (MSIGA). If so, party poker will be able to pool its players from the two states.

Partypoker FastForward

Fast-fold poker has become popular in the global online poker market in recent years. Party poker NJ offers its version of the game called FastForward.

In FastForward poker, you don't join a single table; you join a player pool. The players are then randomly allocated to tables to play a single hand.

As soon as you are dealt your cards, or at any stage of the hand, you can fold and then instantly move to a new table to be dealt a new hand against new players from the pool.

The game is fast, as the name suggests, and it avoids having to sit and wait for a hand to finish when you have no interest in the pot.

Party poker SNGs (sit and go tournaments)

Partypoker offers three types of sit-and-go tournaments; turbo, hyper and coinflip. There are plenty of heads-up tourneys running in this format. Six-max tables are also available, but if full-ring games are available, they run rarely.

There's an SNG for every budget, with entry fees available from $1 to $500.

The turbo tables run pretty quickly, offering 20 minutes or so of entertainment for the buy-in. Hyper tournaments last only a few minutes with very short blind levels. Coinflip SNGs are for the gamblers only: every hand, every player is all-in until there's a winner.

Party poker MTTs (multi-table tournaments)

All New Jersey poker rooms offer a wide variety of poker tournaments at low and high stakes during the week. All offer turbo, rebuy, knockout and other variations on a theme. But, they are measured by their Sunday Majors and the quality of their flagship tournament series.

Partypoker's top Sunday Major is a $40,000 guaranteed NLHE event. The buy-in is a standard of $215. The guarantee does vary throughout the year. In the slow summer months, it can drop to $35,000, and in the peak online poker season, it can rise to $50,000.

The Garden State Super Series (GSSS) is party poker's annual New Jersey tournament series extravaganza. The total number of events in the series and the total amount of guaranteed prize money varies year to year.

Partypoker has been all over with its GSSS, never seeming to be happy with the format. Nevertheless, it offers some fantastic online events every year, with at least one with a six-digit prize pool.

If the big money tournaments are just too big, party poker offers an alternative. Play low-buy-in satellite tournaments, and instead of winning cash, you can win entries into the big tourney. Party poker has a lip-smacking selection of ways to get into its flagship tournaments.

Often satellites can offer overlays where there are more entries on offer than prize money in the pool. There is nothing partypoker that seems to hate more than missing the guarantee on its most visible tournaments, so it goes out of its way to ensure that many lower-stakes players can qualify.
