Effect of Bonuses on Absolute MGR
Has there been a change to the way Absolute calculates MGR? I know the general consensus is that bonuses do not effect their MGR, but when I check my stats from my affiliate every day is about $50 less than the Total Rake / Average Players Per Hand. I'm also clearing about $50 worth of bonuses a day.

from what i know they do not subtract bonuses from MGR. however, about 2 or so months ago a few affiliates were complaining that the way they calculate MGR is very 'screwy'.

Re: Effect of Bonuses on Absolute MGR
Pokertracker shows my MGR on Absolute as $500, Absolute tells my associate it's only $110.
So I'm in the same boat as you are. |

poppa,
It may just be that absolute is slow in getting updated data to your affiliate. Not all sites provide daily updates. |

My first-ever hands were played evening of 10/17. I had positive MGR in the 10/18 report to my affiliate. I continued to play and each daily report since then has shown additional MGR on my account. Does anyone know the cutoff time that a hand must be played by to be reported the next day? Absolute is on Eastern time. I have the PT patch for Absolute returned bets and there are no bad hands in my DB. My reported MGR seems way too low and I am unable to get even close to reconciling it with my PT stats. |

Is there a possibility your affiliate is ripping you off?

Re: Effect of Bonuses on Absolute MGR
From what I've read in another forum it seems that Absolute does a poor job of staying on top of it's MGR and rakeback statistics and paying when due. It seems that every month either the affiliate or the players are E-mailing Absolute to insure proper and speedy payments.

Re: Effect of Bonuses on Absolute MGR
I haven't played there in a week, and the reported MGR has never caught up.
I don't plan on going back unless they fix this, as it's a tough site only made worthwhile by rakeback and bonuses. |
