Sent RPMSeth a PM, but no answer, so here: I made VIP 1st gear, finally, playing micro cash. But no $72 on the next day 1am, no cashback. Is this because I get 30% rakeback? Are the 4k VIP points totally worthless?

I assume you can use them as BI's to tournaments, worth 10% extra cashback (At carbon you'd be able to exchange them for cash, even with rb.

Hey Joost, I sent you a PM. I was out of the office.

You can use your points for tournament buy-ins, and the points can also be used for items in the VIP store we are planning to unveil.

Check your message, though, I've responded.

Best,
Seth

Ding ding ding!

This and many other things will be in the store... I'll put up a thread before we launch it.

I hope the live tournaments are at a fair price and not super-inflated like the TVs/Computers/other big ticket items, hopefully at a discount or the same point ratio for the Sunday $50k..if anything, you want it to be cheap so you can sponsor more players and get your name out there in TV events

No other bonus's are deducted from Rakeback on RPM so I seriously doubt that RPM would deduct these. It seems they made a business decision to NOT deduct bonus's/promos from Rakeback. Hopefully that doesn't change as a lot of players would be dissapointed.
