OK, so, I and friends around me rushed into starcode, and we cannot help but laugh at the results we got. LoL.

As far as I confirmed,

120VPP $12
720VPP $40
1,650VPP $55
2,000VPP $62.5
3,500VPP $87.5
3,700VPP $92.5
10,000VPP $125
22,500VPP $225
30,000VPP $250
50,000VPP $400
150,000VPP $1,000

and so on....

We have to earn VPPs within a month to claim "bonus" given. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, Imagine how hard and ridiculous it is to play like mad to earn 30,000VPP only to get $225, while you can get $92.5 only with 3,700VPP.

I strongly suggest that pokerstars will review the structure and be kind and gentle to those who pay rake A LOT / month.

Worst promo ever

IMHO the worst part of the promotion is that this bonus is not being released in parts for specific number of VPPs earned. It's the whole amount of $ or nothing... (as far as I know)

Someone mentioned earlier in this thread that it is an 'Ultimate' challenge so it is supposed to be hard.

Yes, there is no problem with that, but for something very difficult, the prize also needs to be amazing in order to reward the slog that the player puts in.

That does not happen here. It is a very hard challenge with a pitiful reward for most regs, so therefore it is a bad promotion in that sense for regs. For fish it is good though.

Anything like this available atm?

I know the promo is a little rubbish but something is better than nothing yeah, or is there some part I'm missing here?

haven't been with stars for that long but it seems stars offer these bonuses around once or twice a year. so nothing on right now, but they do have other promotions running each month. right now they have "micromillions" tournaments which are quite fun to play.
