I'm sure probably most of you now have seen my O Doyle's Army post about trying to get the poker sites to negotiate for a block of play from high volume players in exchange for WSOP packages.
Something Clever posted he would like to see PokerStars implement a rakeback plan for their high volume players. This thread got quite a bit of interest.
In my thread Jason Holdem indicated he would prefer a lower cash bonus option for his play instead of a WSOP package.
All this got me thinking. We should all be on the same "team".
What of value do you want for your high volume play?
When I am talking to the poker sites it might just be possible for them to offer us more than one option to help meet the needs or wants of each individual high volume player.
So, once again, I think we as high volume players can agree on this point - We all want something of value for our play. For this reason alone, I would ask you to support an "Army of High Volume Players".
You can post here what value you would like in exchange for your play, but I would also ask you to go back to my original O Doyle's Army post and express your interest and support for it along with what type of value you would prefer.
I would ask you to be reasonable and realistic in what you are asking for. And naturally every single player's request could never be met. However, because we would be able to bring such a large volume of play to a site they might become more flexible and be willing to offer 2 or 3 options for us to take our business there.
For example, I know this may seem a little a crazy, but maybe a car could be an option. Seems far fetched? I don't know, Empire sent me a watch and a TV set.
My main point here once again is that there is strength in numbers. There has been well over 100 players who have expressed an interest, and if this can balloon to several hundred or even one thousand high volume players, what would their play be worth to a poker site?
So please go to my original "Army" post and express your interest. Thank you.
