I'm a rakeback newbie, so excuse my question:
This is still better than a typical rakeback deal on a Party skin, yes? As in, if I could only play this bonus or only play a different skin with rakeback, I'm better off playing the bonus? |

15x is a bit dissapointing, but free money is free money is free money. [/ QUOTE ] I hope the GET15 promo I have isn't 15x. Sucks I can't do both though. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

so they finally wised up and just made the reloads harder to clear. Now if only they would have saved face in the first place and just made it harder to clear instead of just going on a banning spree and then changing the clearing requirements

I don't get it.
The bonus is 15X. Sure it's not 5X or 7X. I play 200-250 hands/hr most of which are raked (1/2 or 2/4). 1500 hands is 6-7, maybe 8 hours of play. $100/8hr = $12.50/hr. Do all of you play so high that a $12.50/hr overlay at the softest site of all means nothing to you? Where do (or would) most of you play when there is no bonus? For me at 1/2 or 2/4 (usually 2/4 now) $12.50/hr is a significant overlay on top of my earn even at or above 2BB/100. Thanks for playing. |

Not everyone can 4-table the 1/2 or 2/4. For some it's easier to clear. Others 2-table the .5/1 so it will take alot longer...

Yes, even at 20x for a new player the reload will be more profitable than rakeback.

Empire (and Party) each insist on handing out bonuses that are extremely difficult to clear in time without multitabling. Obviously this is no big deal for us, but you'd think they would want to make it possible for recreational players to take full advantage as well. What does Empire gain by requiring the play to occur in a 10 day span? The rake they earn is the same regardless, right? |

[ QUOTE ] 15x sucks. [/ QUOTE ] You're right. Free money from a Party skin sucks. [/ QUOTE ] Free money is good. However, I'd rather earn the free money at two or three times quicker the clearing rate than Empire has offered. Which I can at any time I choose. So therefore, instead of earning less by playing Empires new offer I'll earn more by playing elsewhere, using the same time involved. That's my choice. |
