Is it easy and is it worth it for SNG tourney players?

Which site is the best?

-Thanks in advance-

If you play like 3 SNGs a month, then I might pass. Otherwise, you should probably get one.

Also, it's even easier with SNGs to estimate how much you make in rakeback than it is with ring games, so just figure out how many you'll play at each level, multiply that by the entry fee and then multiply by the rakeback percentage you would be getting.

Sign up at a different skin.

*edit* If I had an account at all six skins with no rakeback deal, I would pay someone I knew to open an account so that I could get one. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Why not rakeback, its free money. With a typical 25% deal , youre paying no rake once every 4 tourneys.

Lies Raptor. To make 1 Single thousand, you would have to play 370 $100+9 per week. (and thats at a 30% rakeback clip) So thousands (which would equate to two thousand or more) would mean you need to play 740 $100+9 per week.

Being technical. Im an ass.

Think 215's and 8-12 tabling. That = very easy to get a few thousand per week in rakeback. 500/week = 2k+ in rakeback with a decent affiliate.

It never once crossed my mind that you're getting a "free" STT once every 4 tourneys. God bless my rakeback.

You are correct for a completely free SNG (for levels below 109s). I simply meant free as in no rake.

Gotta remember Raptor has referalls to so he is getting a percent off of them as well. So all his rake isn't just from him

six skins

SIX? Seems I am missing one.

BTW, chose which skin you get the rakeback very carefully.
Sites that give bonuses deduct the bonus from the rake before calculating the rakeback.

So if, for example, you paid $200 in rake in a month but also got a $100 bonus then you would get rakeback only on $100.

So, choose for the rakeback the skin that gives the least bonuses. Use the other sites to bonus-whore and that site to rake back.

Always wondered if you were to e-mail a site and tell them that since you aren't getting a rake back you are moving to a site that does give. Think they would give you it?
