Sick post! Thanks for that man.

Why did EzandWhizz have to rake 3.1k to clear the 1k bonus and not the supposed 1.8k?

Not too sure why it was so much.

The bonus clears once the player has earned 18,000 Stan James Loyalty Points. EzandWhizz seems to have had to rake $3.1k to clear the $1k bonus. His return was still amazing, especially when the rake race and rake race multiplier is taken into account.

If you play tournaments you earn StanJames loyalty points at a constant rate of 15 points for every $1 in rake paid.

As previously mentioned cash games are a little different and StanJames informed us that players earn an average of 10 points for every $1 paid.

I posted a link earlier on in the thread and it seems that depending on the games played there can be some discrepencies in this 10 point rule. Regardless, based on EzandWhizz' example this is still obviously and incredible deal.

Hope this helps.

Just to say this is really appreciated!

the points get deducted when you receive your rakeback so i don't think anyone should exchange them for tourney entries.

What does "Lifetime Upgrade to VIP Level 6" at betmost actually meen?
You will never fall below VIP level6 regardless if you have a month with little play etc?

I am wondering because having vip level 6 always is quite huge for someone like me raking maybe $100 in tournamanet fees per month.

If I rake $100 with vip level 6 meens i get 13k points in total.
That equals a 30% rakeback not counting the first deposit bonus.

Hey Daniel,

That is indeed the case! You will never fall below VIP Level 6!

So if I understand it correctly, players taking advantage of the StanJames offer will be eligible for the deposit bonus + RakeRace(w/ 50% increase) + 50% additional rb without anything counterfeiting each other or anything being deducted? (except for the usage of the loyalty points which someone mentioned above).

Also am I correct in assuming that after the 1st of July, regardless of whether you signed up before that date or not, that players will NOT be receiving 50% rakeback anymore but instead the old 30% or something similar?

Hi PositiveCarry,

You're completley correct about the StanJames deal aside from the fact that you will not get 50% if you don't rake over $750 each week.

After July 1st I'm not sure if it will go back to 30% rakeback or if they will do some other kind of promotion.

Hope this helps.

I would sign up for this deal in a heartbeat if someone could tell me how to successfully stack tables on ipoker.

Hey Cosmos5,

I don't know how to stack tables myself on iPoker but, if you get in touch I'm sure I can find someone who can. Maybe they'll be kind enough to post in the thread and help you out.

Are you talking about StanJames or Betmost?

StanJames is on Microgaming so you might have a better time stacking tables there!

Hope this helps.

I think you're definitely sure that it will go back to the 30% rakeback and you're being very misleading. It clearly states that ALL skins are offering $1,000 First Deposit Bonus and ALL skins are offering 50% rakeback if players rake $3,000 per month (hence the $750 p/w), this isn't a super exclusive deal... it clearly says on the microgaming website "This is a one-off promotional period of extra Rakeback, and all players will revert back to 30% from August 1st 2011. "

Hi Zendo,

Thanks for your post. I don't really think the accusatory tone is necessary. We're not misleading anyone.

I've posted my comments below.


If the up to 50% rakeback campaign accross microgaming is deemed to be a great success then I don't see why the network would revert back to 30%. Our contacts at StanJames and Unibet have expressed that reverting back to 30% is not a certainty. That's not to say it won't happen but, it's perfectly conceivable that other similar promotions could be run in the future.

I think the majority of the time they will go back to 30% and at no stage has anyone at iPokerVIP ever claimed otherwise. I don't really get the problem here.



Our $1,000 1st deposit bonus at StanJames has 2 advantages:

1. It's non deductable.
2. It's one of the fastest clearing bonuses on the network.

These two factors alone make the deal unique and exclusive.



I disagree and I think every single player that has signed up with us on StanJames would too. I think it's fair to let the people who have actually played on StanJames, experienced their support and cleared the bonus to be the judges of the deal.

I don't think you've correctly understood the deal. Our players are eligible for the rake race multiplier, a fast clearing bonus and of course up to 50% rakeback.

The deal isn't misleading in the slightest. I've done everything I can to make every aspect of the deal clear in this thread.

If you have any questions concerning specific aspects of the deal I invite you to post them in this thread.
