The smartest thing party could ever do would be to offer direct rakeback into player's PP accounts WITHOUT the affiliates on a monthly, escalating scale basis. Don;t count on it happening

Then wouldn't all of their affiliates quit?

Here's what I don't understand. Party & skins are already paying their affiliates $x out of the rake. The affiliates could do two things with that money.

A) They could pocket the money and go on with their lives and Party/skins never see the money again, or

B) They could pay the players a % in rakeback, which the players will most likely deposit back into their Party/skin accounts to generate EVEN MORE RAKE.

Why on earth would they want to stop this??

This is very likely not the case. Do you not see why ??

Perhaps I'm thinking as a player still building his roll. I guess the bigger rakers are already comfortable and are using the money for other things.

But even if players most likely wouldn't redeposit, I don't see how Party is worse off than if the affiliate had just kept the $$. Am I missing something else?

This is already happening, and as for my own personal play, they can say goodbye to 8k a month minimum, and many of my friends.

But I thought you already did that? Link.

When party go public and the owners are all zillionaires, is it really going to matter to them what happens to the company?
I mean seriously if I build up a poker site and sell out for a few hundred million I'm gonna be like Oi supermodel, skin me up another joint and get your skinny ass over here. Not oh no stars have got more players than us now what am I going to do.
