***OFFICIAL MERGE POKER REGS THREAD***

[COKE_MAN]

I posted this in a thread in NVG, but it seems to fit here too....

Just out of general curiosity, are you guys that are moving taking this as somewhat of a "fresh start" and changing your screen names or trying to get one as close to what you used on Stars/Tilt?

[Dwayne Wade]

can someone tell me the safest way a US player should deposit $500 on merge?

i'll play on carbon and my options are VISA (maximum $250), Click2Pay (maximum $500), UseMyWallet (maximum $100k), and Cash Transfer (maximum $1k)

[gadolparah]

seems like usemywallet is a no brainer. deposit 100k gogogo

[inthepub5]

on RPM if you play i think 3k hands at any stake they give you a 100$ bonus to clear.s

bonuses on merge clear mega slow though especially for micro players

So is the general consensus that RPM is the best skin? I want to get some money on there but in the past whenever I sign up for something I find out I screwed myself by not picking the best deal. Also, I thought you didn't need an affiliate at Carbon/RPM? If there are affiliates, what are good ones and how do you get in touch w/ them

The best short term deal is with 'the Nuts' and 'Lock Poker' almost 100% rakeback for the first $1000 in rake.

Otherwise if you post in the rb forum I'm sure someone will be able to offer you a 50-60% rb deal if you rake in a decent amount every month.

Same boat as you, BWillie. I have been looking at affiliates all day trying to see if there is a reason to use one with RPM. For us microstakes guys, it is looking to me that we would not have a MGR high enough to really take advantage of most of what the affiliates offer above what you can get directly. But, as you said, I don't want to screw myself. I am sure we all have ambitions to keep moving up and that means eventually that MGR will be there. For RPM, though, all I really see is a rake race on a couple and nothing on others. Seems like RPM already has several good promotions without the affiliates. Carbon affiliates have a couple of extra promos, but again MGR is probably too low to take advantage.

Thoughts?

Without a doubt. Their promos are fun and no Merge skin (or any other site, for that matter) touches their support.

So RPM has BBJ and better rakeback than FTP/PS? Does that mean the rake is higher? Also have no idea how to put money on this bad boy.
