On Party there was a site advertising that they would stake people to play in higher limits. So, for the hell of it I decided to fill out an application and they replied telling me that I had advanced to step 2.

They want me to sign up for Pacific Poker using the link they provided. Then I have to tell them when I plan on playing and what my user name is. They say they will watch my play and decide if they want to back me to play in the higher stakes games. They are located in Europe and I am just trying to figure out if this is some sort of scam.

With me being in the US I suppose they could clean out my account and I would not be able to do anything about it. What do you guys think? Is it a scam or is it worth a shot?

Last night I stayed up late playing poker with Tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died.

They are probably just milking you for the signup bonus.
