FastForward Poker

On Party Poker's FastForward poker tables, as soon as you fold (or click the "forward fold" button), you are immediately whisked to a new table and dealt a new hand! No more waiting around watching other players play as you fold hand after hand!

All PartyPoker FastForward tables are 6-handed no limit texas hold'em, with stakes ranging from ¢2/¢5 to $2/$5.

Party Poker Rakeback Review

We do not recommend playing online with PartyPoker. Instead we strongly recommend that you download Americas Cardroom. Although the Winning Poker Network has slightly less traffic than the Bwin.Party network, Americas Cardroom more than make up for this with significantly lower rake and fees, and much higher rewards.

If site traffic is your primary concern, then you should instead download PokerStars. Although the rewards on PokerStars are not nearly as good as those offered by Americas Cardroom, they have about 5 times the amount of active players as PartyPoker!

In June 2017, PartyPoker replaced their loyalty rewards program with a much simpler "cashback" program. You no longer need to worry about status levels, or spending points on cash bonuses or tournament tickets. Now, you simply earn a cashback reward at the end of the week based on how many points you earn. Although the new PartyPoker cashback rewards program seems much better than the previous loyalty rewards, it's actually horrible for casual players (you need to generate $25/week in rake and fees or you get NOTHING). Not only that, but the site now offers far fewer additional promotions, and it was these promotions that made PartyPoker the best poker site online for many players.

PartyPoker's cashback rewards offers as much as 40% cashback to players automatically each week, but this number is misleading. The vast majority of players will earn far less, with many earning 0%! Click to Tweet

Points/Wk Cashback
25 $5.00 20%
50 $10.00
75 $15.00
100 $20.00
150 $37.50 25%
200 $50.00
250 $62.50
300 $75.00
350 $87.50
400 $100.00
450 $112.50
500 $125.00
600 $180 30%
700 $210
800 $240
900 $270
1,000 $300
1,200 $480 40%
+200 +$80

PartyPoker's cashback rewards are misleading. For example, you do not earn 20% cashback at the first level, but rather get $5 cashback if you earn 25 points (you earn 1 point for every $1 paid in rake or fees). While this is 20%, you only earn 20% cashback if you earn exactly 25 points (or 50, 75 or 100)! If you earn 30 points, you still only get $5 (since the next cashback reward is $10 at 50 points), which is 16.7% cashback. If you earn 49 points in a week (1 point shy of the $10 cashback bonus), you would earn just 10.2% cashback!

Cashback rewards reset every week, so if you earn 24 points with PartyPoker each week for a year, you will earn 0% cashback! You also need to opt-in every week, which is annoying and feels like an under-handed attempt to avoid paying players by adding an additional step.

Party Poker Promotions

In addition to the Party Poker cashback rewards, there are also 3 additional PartyPoker promotions:

  1. Get Started Missions (Ongoing) - Complete 7 missions in order to win various rewards. We will cover this in more detail in the PartyPoker Deposit Bonus section.
  2. Cash Game Missions (Ongoing) - Party Poker offer 2 cash game missions, which can be completed on any Holdem cash game tables (excluding heads-up). Each mission rewards $25 upon completion, and players can only work on a single mission at a time:
    1. Win a hand at showdown with every pocket pair, in order, from AA to 22.
    2. Win a hand at showdown with every hand rank, in order, from 1 pair to a straight flush.
  3. Sit-and-Go Missions (Ongoing) - Party Poker also offer 2 missions for Sit-and-Go players. Players can only work on a single mission at a time:
    1. $10 bonus reward: Play 3 SNGs/day for 3 days, eliminate 1 player each day, and win a hand at showdown with AA, KK, QQ, JJ, and TT as hole cards.
    2. $25 bonus + $5 cash reward: Play 5 SNGs/day for 5 days, eliminate 5 players each day, and win a hand at showdown with 22, 55, 77, 88, and 99 as hole cards.

These promotions are actually pretty good, especially the Sit-and-Go missions. However, they only offer a one-time bonus, so are more like a sign-up bonus than an ongoing promotion.

Party Poker Bonus Code

You do not need to enter a bonus code to qualify for each of the Party Poker promotions listed in this review. However, you may need to opt-in for several of them.

Simply clicking on any of the Party Poker download buttons on this page, and then registering an account with the site will automatically enrol you in most of the PartyPoker promotions. For the rest, you will need to opt-in.

PartyPoker for Mac

In addition to being able to use PartyPoker Instant Play on a Mac, you can also download PartyPoker software specifically for Mac.

PartyPoker Deposit Bonus

Unlike most online poker sites, PartyPoker do not offer a traditional poker signup bonus where you make a deposit and they match it with a bonus that you must then release by generating rake or fees. Instead, new players to Party Poker who deposit at least $10 are given $10 in cash, plus $11 in tournament tickets:

  • 1 x $5.50 tournament ticket
  • 2 x $2.20 tournament ticket
  • 1 x $1.10 tournamet tickets

Like most online poker bonuses, you still need to work to release your $10 PartyPoker deposit bonus; before you can withdraw your $10 sign-up bonus, you must earn 20 points within 40 days (to earn 20 points, you must generate $20 in rake and/or fees). However, you get the $10 bonus up front, so you can use the bonus cash to release itself! Not only that, but using the 4 free tournament tickets will generate your 1st point!

You will need to be a good player to release your $10 Party Poker bonus without risking more than just the $10 bonus. It's awfully difficult to generate $20 in rake starting with just $10! However, even if you are unable to release your bonus before losing it, you are still getting to play plenty of hands for free. There is no downside, so even a recreational player can benefit by risking someone else's money as they learn how to beat the game!

Stakes Full Table 6-Handed
1¢/2¢ 880 hands 1,600 hands
2¢/5¢ 460 hands 480 hands
5¢/10¢ 300 hands 400 hands

Consult the table to find out how many hands you must play to release your $10 PartyPoker deposit bonus. Note that this is the average number of hands, based on the average amount of rake from these games, so your actual number of hands will vary depending on how frequently you get involved in big pots. In other words, you cannot just fold 300 hands in a row playing 5¢/¢10 and expect to cash-out your bonus!

More Party Poker Bonuses

PartyPoker also offer 7 "Get Started Missions" that are easy to complete, and reward even more bonuses for new players. You can start earning these rewards using your free $10 Party Poker deposit bonus. As you complete each mission, you are given rewards to let you complete the next mission. Thus, you can complete all 7 PartyPoker reward missions on bonuses alone!

Mission Requirements Reward
1 a) Play 5 Casual Cash Game hands
b) Win 1 Casual Cash Game hand
$5 Cash Bonus
2 a) Play 10 Fastforward hands
b) Win 1 Fastforward hand
5 x $1.10 SNG Tickets
3 a) Play 5 Sit & Go tournaments
b) Eliminate 1 player in a Sit & Go
c) Finish in the money in a Sit & Go
5 x $1.10 MTT tickets
4 a) Play 5 multi-table tournaments
b) Double your stack in an MTT hand
c) Finish in the top 75% in an MTT
100% deposit bonus
up to $25
5 a) Deposit at least $10
b) Play 25 CCG hands, 2 days in a row
c) Win a CCG showdown using both hole cards
100% deposit bonus
up to $25 
6 a) Deposit at least $10
b) Play 25 Fastforward hands, 2 days in a row
c) Win 1 hand with any pocket pair
100% deposit bonus
up to $50
7 a) Deposit at least $10
b) Play 50 CCG hands, 3 days in a row
c) Play 50 Fastforward hands, 3 days in a row
$25 Cash

As you can see, just playing 5 hands can earn you another $5 PartyPoker cash bonus, and just like your $10 PartyPoker signup bonus, you get to use this cash immediately. You now have $15 FREE to use to earn more Get Started Mission rewards (and release your bonuses so you can cash them out)!

This extra $5 bonus lets you complete the second mission, which rewards you with five $1.10 Sit and Go tickets, which lets you complete the third mission (and earns another 0.5 points towards releasing your bonuses)!

For missions #5-7, you will need to make additional deposits ($10 minimum). It is worth depositing at least the minimum in order to keep working through the missions. Unless you are getting absolutely slaughtered in the cash games, the $25 cash reward for completing all 7 Get Started Missions is worth it! Not only that, but you are earning even more bonuses with each deposit! If you are holding your own in the cash games, take full advantage of each deposit bonus in order to earn the maximum bonus.

If you were to play the lowest stakes (¢1/¢2 for Casual Cash Games and ¢2/¢5 for Fastforward), then you will only need to pay an average of $1.54 in rake in order to earn:

  • $25 cash
  • $5 bonus cash
  • $5.50 in Sit & Go tickets
  • $5.50 in MTT tickets
  • Up to $100 in deposit bonuses

That is one heck of a return on your investment! Just the $25 cash reward for completing Mission #7 represents 1,623% Rakeback!

And that doesn't even include the inital $21 from your Party Poker sign-up bonus ($10 in cash, and $11 in tournament tickets). Between the sign-up bonus and Get Started Missions, you can earn:

  • $15 in bonus cash (given up front, but must be released by earning points)
  • $22 in tournament and SNG tickets
  • $25 cash
  • up to $100 in deposit bonuses

That's $62 free poker money, plus another $100 in deposit bonuses, available if you register a PartyPoker account today!

The problem is that although these initial promotions are great, once they're done the ongoing rewards from PartyPoker are pretty horrible. Their goal seems to be to entice new players with impressive initial promotions and then hope you'll stick around despite getting very little in terms of rewards beyond the Get Started Missions. If you really want to take advantage of these initial rewards, then go for it! But don't make the mistake of continuing to play on a site that charges average rake, but gives far below average rewards. Instead, join a site like Americas Cardroom that not only charges lower rake and tournament fees and offers much better rewards, but also has a 100% sign-up bonus up to $2,000!

Party Poker Freerolls

PartyPoker frequently offer freeroll poker tournaments as part of promotions, especially satellites for upcoming live events. However, unlike many online poker sites, you must have a real money poker account to play freerolls with PartyPoker.

PartyPoker also offer "cent-rolls". These are like regular poker freerolls, except that they cost 1¢ to enter. The entry fee is insignificant compared to the prize pools, but it is actually a great idea that benefits both Party Poker as well as the players. For Party Poker, these tournaments encourage players to at least make a minimum deposit. For you, the advantage is that this minimal entry fee dramatically reduces the number of entrants. Most sites that offer hourly freerolls end up with an average value of 2-3¢. However, PartyPoker cent-rolls have an average value of 10-15¢...and they're available every hour! You're essentially paying 1¢ to eliminate 80% of the competition! Additionally, to qualify for the Bankroll Booster freerolls, you must earn 2 status points during the previous week.

Note that the only tournament in the above table that is still offered on PartyPoker is the $1.10 Tickets - Cent-roll. The other tournaments were offered in April 2017 and are merely a representation of the typical value of freerolls and cent-rolls regularly offered as part of PartyPoker's regular promotions.

Other PartyPoker Reviews

Maximizing Your PartyPoker Rakeback

If you decide to play on PartyPoker, you want to make sure you get the most out of the generous PartyPoker sign-up bonuses and "Getting Started" promotions. Follow the advice in that section, and you can get $62 free, plus another $100 from deposit bonuses!

For cashback rewards, make sure you opt-in every week! Forcing players to opt-in to receive their rewards is one of the reasons we do not recommend this site as it's a rather scummy attempt to deny rewards to their players. You also need to try to make sure you do not fall just short of the next cashback reward. Earning 49 points in a week pays just $5 (10.2% cashback), whereas earning 50 points pays $10 (20% cashback). If you typically generate rake just shy of the next cashback percentage increase, you should also grind a little extra each week. For example, 1,000 points in a week rewards $300, but 1,200 points rewards $480. That additional $200 paid in rake & fees rewards you with an additional $180 in cashback rewards!

However, if maximizing your rakeback rewards is your goal, then our best advice is to play on an online poker site that gives better rewards! Our top recommendation is Americas Cardroom, where you can get a straight 27% rakeback, in addition to rake races, a $2,000 sign-up bonus, and other rewards. If you generate enough rake, you can earn more than 27% rakeback with their Elite Benefits rewards program. To download Americas Cardroom today, simply click the banner below:

PartyPoker Mission Rewards

We have analysed each mission to determine which is easier to complete. 

PartyPoker Cash Game Missions

Do not chase Cash Game mission rewards! Simply activate a mission, and let them complete naturally. If you focus on trying to win with specific hands, or slow-playing big hands to ensure you win at showdown, you could end up losing more money than the missions are worth!

  1. Pocket Pairs - This should take approximately 17,000 hands to complete.
  2. Final Hands - This mission should take approximately 50,000 hands to complete.
Stakes Full Table Avg. Rake 6-Max Avg. Rake
17k Hands 50k Hands 17k Hands 50k Hands
1¢/2¢ $35 $102 $29 $85
2¢/5¢ $66 $194 $96 $283
5¢/10¢ $104 $306 $116 $342

Both cash game missions reward $25, so obviously you should start with the easiest mission (pocket pairs) first. The stakes you play will obviously have a huge impact on the average rake you can expect to pay to complete each of these missions. As you can see from the table, these missions are not worth chasing. Instead, think of them as a nice little bonus if you are already planning to play cash games. If you do not typically play cash games, then do not do so just to try to complete the cash game missions!

Do not jump back and forth between missions! You may be tempted to give up on a mission once it gets difficult, and start knocking off the easy steps on the other mission. However, you do not get paid for completing steps so all this does is delay the time before you get your first reward!

Party Poker Sit & Go Missions

If you plan to play 5 or more Sit-and-Go's every day for 5 days in a row, then start with that mission, because its rewards are better ($25 bonus, plus $5 cash). If either 5 SNGs/day, or playing for 5 days straight is a challenge, then start with the other mission (3 SNGs/day for 3 days).

Unlike the cash game rewards, PartyPoker Sit-and-Go missions are absolutely worth doing, even if you do not regularly play SNGs! Playing 3 x $1.10 SNGs/day for 3 days costs just $9.90 and rewards $10 in cash bonuses. However, the actual cost is just 90¢; the other $9 is invested in the prize pool, and if you're not planning to finish in the money in at least some of these SNGs, then why are you even here? Playing 5 x $1.10 SNGs/day for 5 days costs $27.50 ($2.50 actual cost) and rewards $25 in cash bonuses, plus $5 cash.

You may need to play an extra couple of SNGs to complete the daily hand requirements. If you do not typically play SNGs, then go ahead and chase these mission requirements (that is, try extra hard to win with the required pocket pairs to reduce the number of SNGs you must play each day).

If you do not regularly play SNGs, then start with the 3 SNGs/day mission. If things go well and you are able to profit from the combined SNGs and mission rewards, then move on to the 5 SNGs/day mission.
