I have to say in response to this that it's pretty tough to get an affiliate network to be exactly what you need it to be due to one thing: NETWORK RESTRICTIONS.

At the end of the day, if you're not a stand alone network (Stars, Tilt, Bodog) then you are ultimately at the mercy of the network. I can tell you that some of the rooms on your list really do bust their asses to provide affiliates with what they are needing.

1. Full Tilt - Cant live without these guys. The fees are pretty lame but they seem pretty strong in the market due to....Conversions!

2. Poker Stars - (will get it done for you)

3. Chipleader (UB/AP) - I think there are bigger problems here...

4. Mansion - switching networks and about the dumbest marketing department I have seen.

5. Bodog - newbodog - bodoglife "Still a monster for branding and converts" Oh yea the take US players as well.

6. PokerAffiliate - Now BWin.com and should shape up some. (Same network as ChanPoker)

7. PartyPartners - See Full Tilt Poker

8. EuroPartners - history of tracking issues..but actually reliable as of late in comparison to others!

9. PDC - Hehe, no idea here?

10. PokerHeaven - Always a good room to promote to the UK, France and now Swedes. If they only had Jeremy Enke and Greg Powell back lol.

That is a great point and definitely something that is a challenge for Sunpoker at times.

Poker Affiliate: I need to unsubscribe from that damn payment report email because its depressing to get that every couple weeks while I still have returned fake checks in my desk drawer and no other news.

Sportsbook.com: This one was decent but now I'm in the process of pulling them because they are crooks.

PokerStars: Conversions suck for me

Full tilt same for me but I'm really not trying. Thank goodness it seems.

Pokerrroom - yea I have an old tag out there in cyperspace somewhere (986) where I nailed a big player but they've vanished.

Sportsbook - crooks, nuff said. Postal mail spammers also.

PokerStars: same here but what do you expect when every guy on Earth and their brother knows about them. This is why I think they do not care about a affiliate program upgrade.

If you get bad support at Party then you are a small fish. They have excellent affiliate support for affiliates who produce and IMO thats a great affiliate program, far better than any other.

Every time I email Party, I get a response with something like....

"If there is anything you need assistance with please email me at "

Then I do, and get no repsonse...and btw, the above response is the answer to an initial email with a specific question.

They suck.
