Interesting Party Poker reward system

[Scuba Chuck]

So I reopened my old Scuba_Chuck account about a week ago, to play some STEPs. After this latest announcement, I'm logging in today to play some SNGs, and I get this popup.

Hmmm. Built in rakeback. So how do I earn points anyway?

In the Internet Bonus forum, there's a thread on this topic, and it's interesting the different "earn pts, earn XXX cash" popups people have gotten.

So here's the interesting part. For me to earn this bonus, I need to play 500 $22/$33 SNGs or 250 $55 SNGs.

If I play 500 $22 SNGs, this amounts to a 29% rakeback deal. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
If I play 500 $33 SNGs, this amounts to a 19% rakeback deal. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
If I play 250 $55 SNGs, this amounts to 23.5% rakeback.

Edit: And I feel certain this offer must change each month based on the volume I play/pay.
