The new forum: A positive for the online poker playing community.
It is about time 2+2 allowed such discussion about affiliates and rakeback programs. I know the big dogs have open the door to this room but since this barn(2+2) that I know has now become a mansion, it's can only be a positive.
Without knowing the numbers, I am confident to say there are more poker accounts opened online without affiliate assistance everyday than with assistance. I am also willing to say that there are more accounts open that were formerly funded, that are not funded now as most players go broke. In fact, the numbers are likely not even close in both accounts. Such affiliate programs bring new players to the site, larger volume players to the site, offer incentives to the player to play more hands (to obtain more rakeback) and assist with dealing with the variance of the game for serious players. Also, by depositing the monies earned directly to player’s accounts, the monies are in turn, used to play more hands. It goes forward from there. The more players that are getting online to play, that use affiliate assistance, the more online poker will continue to grow. Thank you 2+2, Joe Tall |

Lorinda and others,
I know you have read this but no comment? Or is what I've said enough? -Joe Tall |

Re: The new forum: A positive for the online poker playing community.
I agree with you. The more people receiving rakeback, the better - and I feel like rakeback is the indirect path towards rakefree (or reasonable rake) online poker.
Where do you see online poker in a few years from now? I don't think it's unreasonable to hope that rakeback percentages will increase significantly, as will the number of players (especially recreational losing players) who receive it. |

This is a little strange since your name is not green.
Shilling for affiliates now Joe? |

[/ QUOTE ] Or maybe it's just possible that a respected, well known poster just happens to like the idea of rakeback (and this forum) on its own merits. Since this forum started I have mostly lurked, and read the opinion of Lori and others, who I like, but think they are dead wrong on this subject. I was glad to see a guy like Joe Tall come forward and express something positive about this forum. But WTF do I know? I'm obviously another shill in green after all (though I don't mod this forum). |
