Default Rakeback Question

I currently 4-table the 11s on stars, a site which, to my knowledge, has no rakeback....how much potential income am I missing out on?

Not much at the $11s, but rakeback becomes worth more the higher the buyin. At the $33s it's worth $315 a week to me. At the $55s it'd be worth $525. At the $109s, $1040.

*this is 6 tabling at party poker, so your turnover will be less.

As to how much you are missing out on, just figure it out yourself. #sng x rake paid x rakeback%.

If you 4 table $11s in sets, every set is worth an extra $1 to you.

0.0227% of the tournie buyin (25% rakeback...you can get up to 30 I think). This is assuming rake is 10% of the buyin cost (eg $1 for a $10 buyin).

its not technically correct to say stars has no rakeback, you do get FPP points. 5 FPP points per dollar of entry fee, and they're worth $0.016 per point. So you get about an 8% rakeback playing SNGs automatically (a little more if you play the $5.50 or $6.50 games, as they round the points up to 3).

Some of the turbos are also set up with a great rake structure: 6.00 + 0.50, 15 + 1, 25 + 2.

Put those two together, and there's not an SNG anywhere that beats the 15 + 1 turbo in rake percentage.

party is really stingy with rakeback. good luck finding anything above 25% most of the affiliate places dont allow more than 30% to be given. holla

I messed up by opening accts with Empire, Party, Intertops, and Pokernow as well as Eurobet. Can I close these accounts for some time and then sign up for rakeback? I'm missing out on some good money now that I 4-6 table the $20s.
