Re: Has anyone been a poker prop?
So, what are your opinions of the following responses I got from my questions?
[ QUOTE ] For XXXXXXXX, there is not play requirements...basically you will get 100% rake back no matter what...you just get a bonus of 110% rake back for all hands that are over 1000 raked hands, so if you play 1500 raked hands in a week-1000 hands will get paid 100% rake back and the remaining 500 hands will be paid 110% rake back. [/ QUOTE ] and [ QUOTE ] As far as what XXXXXXXXX is looking for, they are needing poker players who will help increase the traffic of the site and not take a seat from a real paying customer...that entails leaving a table once it is full and starting a new one. [/ QUOTE ] The deal with these guys was 100% rakeback. What I wanted to know was as a prop, do I get that with all games that I played. For example, if I played a minimum of so many hands, would my rakeback deal be applied to all games that I played, as I realy enjoy playing Sit-N-Gos. Their response: [ QUOTE ] You get rake back on all ring games...we don’t’ get paid to play sit and go’s [/ QUOTE ] [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] |

Re: Has anyone been a poker prop?
it's funny. i'm a prop, and i have 16 hours a week scheduled. I can probably put in 60 hours a week without flinching, but those 16 hours kill me every week, and they're only in 4 hour blocks.
also, i tend to gear my game towards the prop pay, so if i'm having a losing week, i'm still playing 10/20 because the pay's better than 3/6. so the snowball effect can be crippling. |

Re: Has anyone been a poker prop?
Anybody here take the pop up offers for propping on Crypto sites? Is it worth it? Do those hands count for clearing bonuses?

Re: Has anyone been a poker prop?
they're not the worst. they stop paying you when the game gets half full, but it's usually like a free 2$, and if you're gonna play that limit anyway, you might as well.

Propping has made me realize how nasty rake can be shorthanded... one site that was blindingly fast and had a fairly high rake would take $60/hr from each player on average at a 10/20+ table when it was 2 to 4 handed. 2nd |

So, what are your opinions of the following responses I got from my questions? [/ QUOTE ] Sounds like a pretty good deal. I'd just be worried about site traffic. Are the people who play there fish or sharks? I ran into this problem at pokercosmo before they decided to take off with all my money. Tuco. |

Re: Has anyone been a poker prop?
I prop on a number of smaller sites. I will not discuss in a public forum how much it pays, but about once every 3 weeks or so I decline offers to work in B&M cardrooms, but have not yet received an offer I would consider better than propping.
