Hi everyone,

We are looking to add more reviews to our Rakeback and Poker Room Review sections. I haven't played at some of these rooms so we're wondering if any of you guys have or would like to join one, and write up a review for us. We'll pay you $50 for each review used.

But you'll have to follow our exact format and guidelines.

The reviews need to be in the following format/order:
At a Glance Section
Rake-back Review/Details (Rake-back Rooms Only)
General Review/Details
Lobby Screenshot
Table Screenshot
Interface/Usability
Action
Technical Support
Fish
Bonuses

If you can follow our format, and include screenshots of the lobby and tables (500 pixel width), and give a complete, comprehensive, and un-biased review that looks and sounds like the one we have, we'll put $50 in your pocket! For each one that we use!

Except for the screenshots, each section above needs at least one paragraph. All ratings are on a 1 to 5 scale, not a 1 to 10 scale.

If the poker room is a skin of a network, any mentions of differentiating factors - ie- promotions, bonuses, freerolls that are specific to that poker room - should be included.

The rake-back room we need is below. Please use the link below when signing up:
Bet Safe - Rakeback_Room offering 26%. Part of the Tain Network.
Fortune Poker - Rakeback_Room offering 25%. Part of the Boss Media network. {added 28-feb}
Please check out this sample rake-back review for reference: Caribbean_Sun_Rakeback_Review

We also need reviews for regular non-Rake-back rooms. Here are the ones we need. Please use the links below when signing up:
ActionPoker - Action Poker Network - 100% match_bonus up to $2,500
Canbet Poker - Every month over $5,000 in new player free rolls(part of the Boss Network - International Poker Network).
Cindys Poker - The bikini top on the home page makes an impression.
Purple Lounge - part of the PrimaPoker Network. {added 22-feb}
RiverBelle - part of the PrimaPoker Network.
WPT Online - No US Players allowed.
Please check out this sample poker room review for reference: Titan_Poker_Review

Here are the steps for the $50
1. Check this thread to make sure no one has dibs on the room you want.
2. Reply to this thread to put dibs on a room
3. Write the review and send me a private message when it is done.
4. If we use your review for the site then we'll give you $50
5. Please do not place dibs on a room unless you are an active part of our community (forum member for at least a month or 2 and at least 50 posts).


Thanks,
Eric

Muxy, Thanks for the offer. We don't have plans to review them at the moment but we'll keep an eye on them. If they continue to grow then we probably will want to review them at some point in the future.

You're re right, we're not sure about the iPoker network part(it has been removed). Whoever ends up doing the review should be able to give us the network info.

You're re right, it is not iPoker. It is Full House Poker, we've taken out the part about iPoker.

No one wants $50? Easy money people! Especially for you college cats - that's a lot of Top Ramen right there! (or beer!)

Cool,

We're looking forward to having more rooms in our review section. Even if some of them turn out to be kind of crappy, it is still good for us to have detailed information on them in our format that everyone is used to. :)

lol, we're glad that satan1974 got on a roll and did a bunch of rooms in a row. He has the review process down to a science, I always enjoy reading his thoughts on each room.

LOL, that's hilarious. Satan is kicking ass, his reviews our well done and insightful, and he's cashing in.

But new poker rooms are always sprouting up, and they contact us because they want to be on FTR, so we'll always have more to come for those that want to help us out and get some cash!

The rest of FTR is grinding away for hours on $25 bonuses on crappy little sites run by mobsters in Kyrgyzstan while Satan is making like $1000 writing for 15 mins every few days. Nice work fella

(I did the William Hill report though, it's the best)

Sir, that is libelous. I have only done 15 reviews, which totals $750, nowhere near the $1,000 that you claim.

Just PM Satan already when you want one. :P

It's nonsense if all someone has to do is say "dibs". First one written gets the $50. If two come at the same time, reward the better writer.

If Satan's reliable and doing a good job, just contact him when you want one, though.

I disagree. I am not always available to do them. I will be starting a new job soon and doubt i will be able to do them then. I was made redundant recently so not only have plenty of spare time, but need the money!! And you don't want the admins to have to "judge" and then write back to somebody saying "thanks for spending hours reviewing the site and writing your report, but somebody else has done a better one so hard luck".
