there's no way they could afford to pay me as much as it would take to move away from Party etc

70-80% is not realistic. The sites would be losing money at that rate.

Uh, no, they'd be making 20-30%.

LOL...Oh, so the sites are making 100% profit off us?? I guess they have no server, site, licensing, employment, or affiliate costs in their business. A business without ANY overhead...that must be great!

A site could still profitably do 70%.

That depends on the site in question and their operating costs. There are many sites that would not turn a profit if they gave 70% away.

Good luck with the campaign. Can you included online tournies as well as WSOP some of us can't easily play live.

I'd play a lot at pokerstars if they gave me 30%+ rakeback available to enter their own tournies. Cash would be even better.

Ok. I'm not looking for big dollar tournament buy-ins. I would definitely prefer the cash. Dedicating myself to a high-volume hand requirement without at least some flexibility will probably keep me from entertaining new offers, and I'll probably just stick with existing rakeback options.

Cash please.

I like the sliding rakeback scale idea... quite motivating if it were designed appropriately.

Well, a major caveat is that the games would have to be soft for me to be interested.

This is why I proposed my idea at Stars, where I've found the 6-max games to be of Charmin-like quality.

You couldn't pay me to play in a rock garden.

30% rakeback

30% rakeback

Let me just say that 30% rakeback is gay. If you're a true high-volume player, you should already be getting that (or more) on the Party Skins.

Therefore, the deal would have to be much more lucrative than "30% rakeback" to get many of us to leave Party et al.

No offense.
