This was announced on their website.

I didn't work out the math, but it seems like the bonus will clear slightly faster at levels where you are raked consistently at $2. Everywhere else it's going to suck just as bad, or worse.

Change of Player Points structure (Sep. 05, 2005)
On Wednesday, September 7, 9 AM ET the Player Points structure will change! The new structure will look like this:

Rake Player Points
<$0.05 0.00
$0.05-$0.09 0.05
$0.10-$0.14 0.10
$0.15-$0.19 0.15
$0.20-$0.24 0.20
$0.25-$0.49 0.25
$0.50-$0.99 0.50
$1.00-$1.99 1.00
$2.00 and above 2.00

Hey, nice correction, giving back partial points for the pots raked < .50! Kudos for the quick correction!

Lol, nevermind! Hopefully we will be very wrong about this, but I'm having a hard time imagining the .05 raked -> .40 raked hands are going to make up for a 50%-and up increase in clearing requirements.

Actually, I can do some work for a few minutes and see how this changes in a 500 hand sample or so (for $1 NL anyway)..

Be right back..
