K, well, I have to get/clear my bonus, but then, peace guys.

GJ running your **** str8 into the ground

I long for the day we hear the news a major site is actually helping the poker economy and dropping their cap. No doubt a site like party would be back at #1 pretty quick if they did that.

So what about PLO? These changes will decimate the games there.

http://www.partypoker.com/how-to-pla...structure.html

PLO included looks to remain same, except for Dealt to WC

Still raised the rake via backhanded stealing and the Accelerator, while not as ****ty as the last few promos, is still pretty weak at 10% rb for Palladium pace.

Crock of **** imo.

xPosting this for anybody who wants to see the impact this has had on them:

I know my rakeback is going down and so is everyone else under at least 30vpip.

It bears repeating that given the way weighted contributed is calculated, you both need to see a ****ton of flops and keep putting in a ton of money postflop all the way to a showdown to see a good return. I think weighted contributed is actually going to be WORSE for a lot of players than just giving it to the winner of the pot as fish are going to get a lot of credit in weighted contributed without ever winning the pots and paying the actual rake. Not to mention dealt gave the vast majority of us more rakeback.

Doesn't really matter what one person considers more fair, the problem is we entered into an agreement with Party for a certain rakeback and they just found a way to get around that and give us less without us being able to do much short-term (because you can't just insta-quit from Party, you have to buy/clear bonuses to get full value).

Long-term do I leave Party over this, maybe? Rakeback is a very small part of my earnings, but taking thousands of dollars a year away from me doesn't make me like your company at all and makes me want to leave.

**** off party.

Thank you

hmm 25-30% less rb coz of the change or 60% rb at ipoker, decisions decisions

gg

Pretty much this. PartyPoker know exactly what they're doing. In before Party reenters US and has 18x the players of stars.

How are people getting 60% on Ipoker? 2 people have now stated this. Any help would be awesome.

NM looks like will hill after some research.

Plz introduce some midstakes HUPLO games.

Cashed out my roll. Deposited everything on ipoker. They will get the 10K per month in rake I generated.

Absolutely terrible business decisions.

I hope your CEO get his ass handed to him by the share holders.

Nice ive raked 145$ and only got 200pp and im a loose player

Mini session but: 78$ rake, 141pp and I am 30-20 at 6max.

Hi,

I've played a 3 hours session of poker today and noticed I only had 207 party point for that which is way lower than before. My HEM told me that I've raked about 145$ this session. I've done some calculation and 207 party point for 145$ equals to 21,41% of rakeback if I'm planning to buy your 3000$BONUS which is supposed to be worth 30%.

I've a VPIP of 18,6 on a full ring cashgame which is considered as loose and still, i'm having a huge hit of rb income since you switched it to contributed. I'm used to have about ~85pp per hour and since i'm loose, I was expecting to get more now. The truth is I'm below 70pp/hour. I won't be playing poker for 20% rakeback when it is so easy to find a 40% deal out there.

I'm seriously planning on taking my 3000$rake/month volume somewhere else if you don't give me the same pp rate that I used to have. I will reach palladium VIP, take the 3k$ bonus w/ my point and quit if you let it to contributed.

I've played a LOT on party in my life. I don't wanna quit but 20%rb is unacceptable for the volume I put in.

Regards,

Francois

re:Francois

Party support is not going to understand anything you wrote. And it's not because your English is bad.

In the future you might want to take heed of what people who have gone through certain experiences, such as the change to weighted contributed, are telling you rather than assuming you know everything. The impact of weighted contributed rakeback is extremely counter-intuitive which makes it particularly insidious because it does seem ostensibly fair, but it couldn't be further from it. If you are a winning player, you will lose money under weighted contributed. The only question is how much and in most cases the answer will be a lot, even if you are a much looser than average player.

It looks like rake free MTTs in July was the worm in the apple. Tony G knows when to relay good information useful to players.

And they want to compete with real poker online companies offering poker only games.

Greedy bastards. I hope you shares will drop down, you really deserve it.

I'm playing 25/50 PLO and they're raking $5 a pot, I thought they decided against the rake increase?

oh snap

So, you went from 30% to 20% Rakeback? What does that work out to in ptbb/100 in your game? How will your win-rate be affected over all? What about in a few weeks or months when many regulars have left and many fishy players are playing more?

Here is a good article regarding how these changes could be good: http://rakements.com/blog_party_new_..****ulation.html
