I have a quick question.

I play mainly micro stakes low volume SNGs & MTTs one tourney at a time.

Would it be better to switch to a rakeback account since it would take a longer time to accumulate player points to reach the higher vip levels?

I just wanted to see what you guys thought.

Thanks.

You're most definitely better off with rakeback from what I hear, I've never looked at their VIP system myself though.

you need to rake more than 700 a month in order for VIP system to be better.

I've seen the 700 mentioned a few times but that is if your getting 27% rakeback. Do you know how much you need to rake in for vip to be worth it if your getting 35% rakeback?

Last month i raked just under 1800 according to pt4 at 35% rakeback. Don't know if it matters but i only play hu cash so should i stick with rakeback or switch to vip?

How does one at 35% rb, i thought 27% was max?

edit: grandfathered from previous BCP network?

ya with old bcp

supposedly:

Below is a table which shows the approximate cumulative rewards of the Elite Benefits Program, based on monthly average rake (note: to achieve some of these levels you would need to play for the whole 12 months to ensure you're getting the benefits of each component of the program - especially the legendary bonuses)...
