[O Doyle Rules]

Hello All,

I have had a tentative offer by a start up site. (which at this time is asking not to be publicly named until their official launch)

It is as follows:

The site will credit 75% of the total rake generated by a player towards WSOP/WPT events. The time period to qualify for events will be in the 4 to 6 month time range.

There will be a "safety net" feature for some reason a player is unable to complete the rake requirement in the required time period. A player will have the option to take 40% rakeback. A player will be able to do this either perhaps on a weekly or more likely monthly basis. If a player takes his rakeback on a weekly or monthly basis and still completes the overall rake requirement for the WSOP/WPT trip he would then be eligible to receive the balance towards the trip, but only if the player then pays the difference of the total cost of the trip himself. (Since he had already received the difference in rake)

This site is indicating they would be interested in building a longterm relationship with a team of high volume players and there would be perhaps several opportunities to win WSOP/WPT packages.

They are indicating that initially the number of players they would accept in such a program would be limited due to the fact they are a start up site and they would re-evaluate that number as their site grows.

I realize that some may think that this is nothing more than a glorified propping situaton since it is a new site. (And I understand that position) However, with the "safety net" feature it does lend protection to the players trying it and also by limiting the number of participants to the growth of the site will hopefully aid the fact it will not just be a site of 2 + 2ers battling each other.

Let me know what you think!
