yeah deducted from MGR but not your rakeback figure

um, this makes no sense, given that your RB is calculated FROM your MGR.

Im guessing they recognized your name, assuming you gave them the same name. I would just use a relative's name, that's what I did and it worked fine, although I did have to email a picture ID of my sister to them. I would definitely make sure its cool with the relative first though.

As far as the VIP compared to rakeback, the situation is pretty [censored] $1250 for 50000 RAKED hands is the deal I'm assuming your referring to. That would be like 70000 hands or so at 6 max table. It works out to be somethign like 1.7 cents per hand which isn't really comparable to 7 cents a hand or so with rakeback. The best option is to pursue both avenues however.

It's quite simple really.

Let's say your MGR for the month is $1000 and you have a 25% Rakeback deal. Without a VIP offer you would make $250.

Now, let's say you have a VIP offer and earned $200. You simply subtract the $200 bonus from your MGR (1000-200=800) and then take 25% of $800. You now earned $200 on RB, which is $50 less, but you got $200 in bonus so you are better off.

Do you see why?

The best deal you will ever get is to get a friend to sign you up. That friend gives you 99% of the revenue you make them.

But that friend has to be a succesfull affiliate, constantly bringing in players to pp, and never blowing his RB - deal. I don't know any [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Otherwise i have heard they just stop paying the aff.

Lifetime, is only lifetime as long as you are bringing them in - or so i have heard.

So just making a blog with a banner and let a freind sign up there wouldn't get you anywere - would it.

Anyways - the RB deal could well be off, within a week or so if pp get suspicius of the aff.

Any bonus you get gives you *what you were making before* + (100%-rakeback%)*bonus

Sure, but if the RB ends soon, it might be worth waiting before resigning to see what PartyPoker has in store.

Sure they are not winning any grounds with their VIP-crap.

They have to, in a clear non-manipulating way, make it possible to loyal players to get at least 25 % rakeback, on an ongoing basis, without any BS.

They are a better site - therefore only 25, instead of 35 or 40.


Otherwise i say

Boykot the PARTY!!


They are not good enough to miss out on the rakeback, ecspecially not for small stakes players were the rake is huge on all sites; FL up to 2-4, NL up to 200, and SNG's op to 33.
