If someone were to join RPM with 35% RB plus 6.5% VIP Cash Back, is that separate and in addition to the 6.5 VPPs per $1 rake that the poster mentioned above?

Thank you

That IS the 6.5% VIP cash back, 10k points for $100.

gotta win a high tourney king tournament so i can make it. I Think im like 251 or something for high and liek 30 for low.

Does anyone have an estimate of how much longer a Double or Nothing tournament takes compared to a super turbo?
04-29-2011 , 07:52 PM
How much rake would one need to pay to clear the 100% deposit bonus? Does anyone know the rate of rake:bonus? Also, RTR says the 100% deposit bonus is up to $1000 whereas RPM site says $500. Is it at a different rate as well?

Are all the 45 man SnG's turbos now? I didn't see any non turbos in the lobby.

Will it be this way for other mtt/sng's?

Guys, I'd like to know about this too.

How many MTT SNGs are running during peak hours? 45-man turbo?

I played about 600 hands of 50NL yesterday.

My player admin page shows that I have only cleared "%0.17 of 75000.00 vip points". Is the $1000 deposit bonus pretty much impossible to clear before it expires in 3months?

I have rakeback through RPM Seth FWIW.

yea it doesn't matter if you have a 500 or a 1000 dollar bonus.

you are not clearing it in time.
04-30-2011 , 02:23 PM
clearance rates are the fastest on the merge network, they will be quick to tell you, but they are still pathetically slow
04-30-2011 , 02:30 PM
Has anyone, in the US, actually cashed out on merge post Black Friday and received their money yet? I have been searching for enough evidence that I will get paid without issues and all I have found thus far is people saying they are getting stalled by customer support, the verification they send in is always deemed not clear enough, and 10+ days out no money? ANYONE gotten paid since cashing out post 4/15?
04-30-2011 , 02:31 PM
That's the funny thing about all these bonuses. Right now, due to the low player pool, it's pretty much impossible for anyone to be clearing much, so there's no point in signing up for bonus offers any time soon if you've got an active bonus to clear. But I had that figured out before I joined, and even though it isn't what we're used to on FTP/Stars, it seems to be Merge policy, so I'm cool with it.

I'm not sure what skin it was but I looked for this earlier. I found one confirmation and stopped looking.

I'd like to see more confirmation from US players that they've been able to cash out as well...

I contacted support and they said they cannot confirm/deny. Sounds shady, idk why they would EVER say that if there have been no problems...

Edit: Sorry this may not be true... I contacted carbon's support, who may or may not have the same support as rpm... fwiw

Cashouts are still going, they're just understandably delayed. We appreciate your payments, but let's not start any rumors here

Withdrawals are delayed due to the increase in volume on the Merge Network. They are working as fast as they can!

Will there be anything done about this, like how FTP took action and blocked PTR from data mining their site?
Didn't see if this was ever answered. Would love to hear from RPMSeth on this.

RPM Poker does not sanction 3rd party software and/or websites for use with RPM Poker.

There's nothing that RPM can do specifically to stop PTR from tracking users across the Merge Network. I have forwarded this to the Merge Network, and have been told they are looking into this. I have no other information!

You (merge) can allow data mining by everyone though. If you can't stop PTR, then that's the only reasonable answer - if not, your legit users will be at a disadvantage when playing against PTR users.

If you can't police the no-datamining policy, then you should allow it.

Don't see what rumor was started. I'd just like to see someone actually confirm that they have been able to cash out from the US in the past two weeks.

Sure, you have increased volume b/c of black Friday. However, as a site it's your responsibility to accommodate for this increased volume, especially since you are advertising for it the way you are (a lot of recent adds on 2+2, etc..)

If you want increased traffic you need to make sure we can get our money out, even if that means you now need to spend some of that extra rake $$ you're making on increased support staff, payment processors, etc..

I deposited a couple hundred $$ on the site last week and have yet to see any confirmation that I'll be able to cash out when the time comes.

Check the merge reg's thread in SSNL, think there were a few there confirming successful cashouts post Black-Friday.
