One thing that bothers me a little is the RPM $2000. I know this has been discussed already, but really, Why do they call a seat in this a $100 value? It makes no sense. It's more than 24 hrs until the tourney and theres already 42 players in it. There will probably be over 50 atleast. So it's not even $50 value. They might as well say it's a $800 value.

yeah i said monday and tuesday were fine, b/c they weren't impossible to reach for a microstakes/low stakes player.... although they do absolutely nothing, atleast they do something i guess? not much but atleast something.

the rest suck, wait, i guess they all suck... w/e

better promos in october seth or what

A better promo more geared towards micros or lower volume players could be small, stackable bonuses such as: Wheelin' Wednesday - Play 1,000 hands of any cash game (or equivalent MTT/SNG requirements) and receive a $20 bonus, split into $10 cash and a $10 bonus, unlockable at 75pts/$1.

augusts was 45 players($100 value supposedly) and said players can buy their way in, but it didnt even give that option to people which i found odd. I'm guessing this month will be 60 entrants at most, top 7 paying or so?

Are you talking about RPM's $2,000 Guaranteed Supercharged September tournament?

RPM Poker client, go to Tournaments -> Scheduled -> Special -> Supercharged September event. The tournament begins on September 28th at 20:00 Server Time.

And what im saying is that promos like Wednesdays are way better for micro players because it's based on how many hands you play not how much rake generated. Play 3k hands of 4nl and recieve almost 3 BI's. Whereas someone playing 50nl plays the same amount of hands but generates way more rake and only gets about a 1/5 BI back.

wheelin Wednesday is really best for micro players.

Yeah it's stupid. If it's $100 value then every player over 20 there should be an extra $100 to the pool. So 45 players should result in a $4500 prize pool. That way players could buy in for a $100. Someone would have to be seriously mentally challenged but in to this tourney for a $100 the way there doing it now.

Agreed or bump the guarantee down to 1K and for each entry over 20 add 50 to pool. I qualified for the 1k bonus I can only unlock $250 over the 3 months, but it is nice to stack these for 43% rakeback, stacked now for 5 months or DOJ kills the game.

You get 35% rakeback

Plus all these promos plus Points are worth money.
Why do people still mention 35% rakeback, like the high percentage is suppose to mean anything? Yeah, it's high but the rake is very high as well. Merge could lower the rake and offer like 10%, but then it would not sound so good.

Also, saying that you would take less of a cut for faster checks is idiotic. You are basically saying that you would rather have it such that it takes you longer to actually make the money to withdraw, than have to wait a while for the check to arrive? You are basically saying that you would rather work 6 days a week and get a biweekly check, than work 5 and get a check once a month.

hey say what you want. But when the money gets here faster, more people play. When more people play, I am a better player compared to the average player.

The rake is the same as it is/was at pokerstars and ftp. We just get higher rakeback. You can complain all you want but it doesn't make it valid.
