[jerome baker]

how do i find out the "correct" method for rake rebate under the summary tab on ptracker?
if i clicked the summary tab, it will show all hands played and observed.

"GAME NOTES tab and then click on the GET ALL button."

under GAME NOTES, after i clicked GET ALL, i get $519 for rake.

under GENERAL INFO, i get $1601 for total rake.

do i use the $519 for rake rebate?
do i use 25% of $519 for rebate?
do i use 25% of $1601 for rake rebate?

The GENERAL INFO tab shows all hands played and observed so if you want to figure out your rakeback, the number under GENERAL INFO is useless.

To get a close, rough estimate of your rakeback, go to the GAME NOTES tab and click the GET ALL button. From there, you will get a total rake and you'll also get an average players per hand (labled APH). Take the total rake and divide it by the APH. Then multiply that number by your rakeback % and that's a pretty close rough estimate of what you are owed from your affiliate. It's not exact, but it's the closest you will get. There was a thread on this a couple days ago that you might want to read :

the thing that doesnt sound right to me is: i have 6711 hands at 6max (5/10), but the rake is only $519 according to GAME NOTE then GET ALL.
or does that sound right?

btw, thanks a lot for helping me.

LOL no that's definitely not right. I left out a few steps that I don't have to do so that's probably the problem. If you read through that thread, it's explained more clear. If you play different limits, you have to go to PREFERENCES tab and put a check next to ONE of the boxes of a certain limit. You then go to the GAME NOTES and and click the GET ALL button. For every different limit, you have to follow the same steps.

Also, those 6000+ hands that you have, are those your played hands or are those you played/observed ones? On the GAME NOTES tab, it'll give you a number of hands at the top. That is the number of hands you actually played in.

i got it fix. i didnt move the cursor far enough under rake.
lol. instead of $519, i got $9519.

so 9519/5.49 (aph)
(then that number) x (% of rake rabate)

sounds correct? once again, thanks for your time

Yes that sounds correct. Also, if all those 6000+ hands are just in November so far and you play 6max 5/10, you are getting screwed only getting 25% depending on what site you're playing on /images/graemlins/confused.gif

I would have a talk with your affiliate... hell I play about 2000 hands a month on 1/2 and I get 27%. I believe (I could be wrong, it might only be 30) the top affiliates on Empire get 35%.

[jerome baker]

wow 35%

Actually now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure it's 30% max. Intertops is 35% but they take away 1/2 your rake so it only ends up to be 17.5% max.
