RPM POKER BEGINNER/GENERAL QUESTIONS THREAD - Page 11 - RPM Poker

You can try a free program called MergeKeys. http://www.runbetterpoker.com/

I've been using it for about a week and it's not that bad. Doesn't do everything but its better than nothing.

Hey RPMSeth, I got a box that popped up that said I've been awarded a $300 transfer bonus award, or something to that effect. What does that mean??

Most likely the bonuses you earned from May. I also received my bonuses from May today. I'm assuming you earned multiple bonuses, totaling $300.

Yep, this is what it is. All of the bonuses from May have been credited.

I'm sorry if this has been answered before, but I'm not sure about something. The only $11 satellites that I can find that are eligible for the Tuesday bonus $11 ticket are rebuy-addon tourneys. Can we use our tickets for the rebuys and addons? Because otherwise, we get a $11 satellite entry and have to come out of pocket with $22 cash to play one of them.

Thank you for answering.

Kind of annoying since I don't have the roll to play $11 rebuys, so I just ended up playing it like a freezeout

dirty - I don't think playing it like a freezeout is a significant loss of EV really. Especially when you consider the aggressiveness of some of the other players in those things. Either get an okay amount of chips early or get it over with = Not too bad. (but I would definitely prefer to be able to use the tickets for rebuys/addons too).

Points ledger thing is being weird.

I played 2500 hands Tuesday night (lol at me...you need to play 3000 hands for the promo) and the points I earned are not in my points ledger at all. I played two tournaments during this same time and those are in my ledger.

Cash games are tracked a little weird in the points ledger. I'm not sure exactly what the guidelines are, but I've played a session, took an hour break, come back and played, and had all the points lumped together in one big session.

I'm sorry if this has been asked already. Does RPM offer rakeback? Has anyone been able to get there Visa Debit Card to work for deposit? What about withdraw options for US players?

If you didn't have an account before June 1st then you have to go through their VIP system. If you did create an account before June 1st you can get rakeback.

Dang. I always feel I'm not taking free money when I don't have rakeback. The rake is being taken all the same so I would like to get as much back as possible. Is there VIP system equivalent or better than a rakeback + VIP on other sites?

nick - Their VIP program is quite good and with a reasonable amount of valuable you are probably doing better than rakeback.

Also, Merge is not accepting new sign-ups from the U.S. currently. They have shut that down for a few weeks because they have been overwhelmed. If you are from the U.S. and not currently signed up on RPM then you are going to have to wait 4-6 weeks for them to re-open to new U.S. players.

i know you get the points, dont know about the rake?

Is there a way to rebuy twice when you bust in a tourney instead of rebuying, playing a hand, and rebuying again.

When I leave a table, I uncheck "Auto Blinds" then when I would be the BB, I sit out then click "Leave". At that point I get a message something like "You have up to 7 free hands. Do you still want to leave?"

Do I really have another orbit without posting another blind?
