Party Poker Upgrades
Faster points and personal Hosts for VIPs and convenience
features break new ground
PartyPoker.com has announced an upgrade that includes the opportunity
to earn PartyPoints faster; a new level of service and a series
of features extending the customer service experience.
The upgraded PartyPoints program gives players the chance to earn
points at up to 400 percent of the standard rate, and there is potential
to hit a private level beyond that. Points can be earned on any
of the PartyGaming brands including PartyPoker, PartyCasino, PartyBets,
Gamebookers.com, PartyBingo and PartyGammon and exchanged for cash,
tournament entries and soon a series of other products and services.
In addition, every VIP is now allocated an experienced host to
provide personal service and be the single point of contact for
any and all issues on PartyPoker or any other PartyGaming products
around the clock. The firm claims that this new offering is the
first of its kind in the online gaming industry. "It means
someone who knows gaming and knows you will be there for you whatever
your gaming needs." said a PartyPoker.com spokesman.
Three improvements to make players' experience easier and better
are part of the upgrade.
The first is to allow for the expansion of the poker table for
the larger 1024x768 screen resolution commonly found on today's
monitors. It's accomplished simply by clicking the maximisation
button or dragging the corner of the window. "Players have
long been able to shrink our tables to allow many to fit simultaneously
on the screen, now single-table players can fill the screen with
their gaming experience," the spokesman said.
Easy replays and rematches have also been tweaked. Now when players
bust out or win a tournament, they'll be immediately asked if they
would like to play in another one of the same type. One click and
the registration for the next event is available. There are also
new rematch facilities against the same player with just a click.
When the heads-up tournament is finished, each participant will
be asked whether they would like to play again. If both click 'yes',
another heads up will immediately begin.
