Outside of the generic 35% rakeback, anyone have a link to someone doing the math on the value of the various VIP programs? I haven't signed up for any skins yet, but I'm considering it.

be careful. many of the programs have their benefits cut/eliminated if you are a rakeback player.

[zocketpocket]

no matter wat your gonna earn vips 30% slower than someone who doesnt have rakeback. doesnt matter wat affiliat u sign up with. but when u do get enuff points for a bonus or w/e theres no mgr hit.

wat are u guys using for a replacment of tableninja? i ****en hate moving the mouse to every table. im using a program now but its pretty meh, and full of bugs.

[gyl2009]

I don't use any program, but i only play ten tables max. Besides, there are not that many games running?

[FreeShot]

As someone who played only on Stars, how do the skins work? If they are on the same network then why have different skins? Once you sign up through a certain skin, could you sign up with a different account on another skin?

[inthepub5]

RPM vip program is worth an additional 6.5% rakeback. you earn vip points at 6.5/ $ rake as opposed to 10/$rake as a non RB player. there is also no rakeback hit when you spend them

dis. sampling bias so bad on sites like that.

[flip2win]

it seems like cashouts are relatively decent, though i don't like the check method at all.

[Rubberneck]

In on the ground floor, up and running. So far doesn't look like ill have to worry about cash outs though.

Can somebody PM me how you got money on the site? Seems WU is the only option. I wanted to use p2p transfer via selling a gift card or w/e in the marketplace, but I think I have to be "ID verified" before I can accept a transfer. WU fees don't appeal to me if I can be up and running by the weekend, but if I can't get my ID verified by then, how did you guys deposit? Again, please PM me info. Don't post here. Thanks!

+1. Some math wiz wanna do this up?
Say you play 50nl and 100nl and average 70k hands a month.
Compare between lock/carbon/rpm.
What am i getting for a total rb% once i achieve the vip level i should be expected to achieve accounting for the previous stated stake/hand quantity.
(Include rake races or double point days that are guarenteed to be weekly/monthly. Not those that are unique and may be one time offers.)

This is going to be tough, because if you spend a little time looking at rakeback providers, there are unique offerings to each one, depending on skin. I think its safe to say, rpm, lock or carbon have similar offerings, what's going to make the difference is the rakeback provider, imho.
