Lets say in a month I accrue 100,000 Combat points worth $1,500 and place 10th in the Beast for $2,500. (I know it pays every 2 weeks now I just want to make the numbers easy) What is my take home out of that and how do you figure it out?

I signed up through and affiliate for rakeback and will switch over to the elite system soon, but I read something about them deducting RP from your Beast total or vice versa. I'm kind of confused. Hopefully its a straight $4,000 and I'm overthinking it.

Any help would be appreciated.

The above is stated on the RaketheRake website. What does that mean?

With the elite system is my answer to the above question just $1,500+$2,500=$4,000? or is something deducted?

Nothing is dedcuted but playing against a bunch of regs and shoter stacks with high rake makes it impossible to win. Most the people that finish high tend to jump back in quite a bit of money to get that prize.

If you have the 27% flat rakeback and rake e.g. $700 in a week while you are clearing a bonus(1st deposit or reload) e.g. $100 bonus cleared during that week, then they reduce this $100 from the $700 rake you have paid and you´ll get 27% rakeback of $600 = $162 instead of 27% rakeback of $700= $189.

If you have VIP they will deduct bonuses as well in some way, but I dont know how because I have 27% rakeback.

Any "The Beast" prize money you´ll receive will not deducted from the amount of rakeback or VIP rewards you´ll receive.
