Because of the problem with Jackpot Poker right now, we're unable to get these games in Sit & Crush this week. They should be contributing to Sit & Crush early next week.

Do you get rb for these? I assume after a test you will add some bigger buyins? Wug distribution? I saw 70% are 20s but could you go further? Thanks

So if player wants to race for top of leaderboard this week he should avoid playing too much jackpot poker?

Does this mean we can expect huge sit & crush prize pool next week comparing to this week?

I'd love to see higher BIs (up to $50-100) too, but I'm afraid that the network is just too small and they wouldn't run as smoothly as they need to run to be attractive to casual players (who expect to be seated fast).

If a person is wishing to push himself to limits for the s&c race, yes, stay away from games not giving points, which includes Jackpot Poker.

I'm expecting S&C will be much larger than usual when Jackpot Poker joins that race, yes.

Yes, rakeback is working for Jackpot Poker.

You can find the payout distribution in the link above.

We'll consider bigger buyins after we gain some data.

That's right: This week we're not giving away a portion of the rake for Sit & Crush.

Thanks for clearing it up! It might not be what many of us wanted to hear but at least it's the straight to the point truth which I can respect.

Not what we wanted to hear either. We're excited about the future of Sit & Crush.

But will you maybe give loyalty points / rakeback for the whole rake (because no part of it is subtracted for S&C yet), i.e. 0.66/3.3 pts per $2/10 JP game instead of the 0.5/2.48 that will be awarded from next week on? That would be perhaps even more beneficial to 'early adopters' than retroactive inclusion into S&C, as the games have appeared mid-week (yesterday's glitchy premiere doesn't really count) and they wouldn't top the leaderboard anyway.

Priorities are relative. There are some more important things that must be tackled and released on top of needing to solve the problem with adding JP to sit and crush. I don't have a date for this yet.

You played 2700 of these specifically for snc points without once checking to see your leader board status where you would have identified no points were being given?
