Apparently not. Support just keeps spam replying with this:

"Please note that if you do not qualify to maintain your current status for the next month, you’ll be credited for Player Points at whatever level you earned them.

Which is odd considering the language on the website they keep linking me.

So, the free play is not what it appears. You can't use it once you "earn" it. Have to then deposit a minimum of $300, then if you win the wager(s) you get paid on it, but lose the free play. Then, you have to rollover equal to amount of deposit.

Ugh, such a waste of time on this. I was actually excited about it initially. Feel stupid now.

I'm not sure how you can read that without an implication that you keep legend regardless of play volume until March of the following year. It's kind of unfortunate because the difference in benefits is literally the only reason I'd ever play another hand on WPN.
You need to PM the rep on here and have him look into it. Besides what you've quoted off of their website, the paragraph above that is even more clear cut to me.

"You will earn your legacy the second you reach 100,000 BPs. Once you’ve reached this status, we’ll give you a heads start on next year as you are guaranteed to stay a Legend until the end of February of the following year. In order to maintain your Legend level throughout the next year, you must earn at least 7,000 BPs every month (after the month of February)."


It's pretty obvious you still should be Legend.

indeed. the reply above is correct, if in fact what you stated is true in regards to your situation, you should be VIP, Konar.

They did give out some bonuses to people who hadn't played much a week or two ago and they were legit. I'm not sure about that particular email/site though, maybe you could contact the site or a rep on here to make sure that's not a fishing/malware link if you want to be 100% sure before clicking it.

Thanks, I've done that. Just waiting on a response. Will post once I hear back.

It's legit, every so often they give free money to people that haven't played in a while. You can probably activate your bonus by logging into your account and going to the bonus tab, assuming you're just scared of clicking that link.
02-03-2016 , 04:36 PM
Thanks everyone. As stated by others, it was legit. Nice to get a bonus and support did get back to me on this, which was also nice.

Cheers

In the rakeback chart. It shows a column with TBs that has a higher percentage rakeback than the column next to it. What are TBs? Am I automatically doing this or do I need to do something special?

Thank you in advance.

how much is The Beast roughly worth as rakeback in % ?

New NL Cash player on WPN. I got the first deposit bonus and the 27% rakeback. I am going to play 25-50k hands per month starting at 25nl and moving up pretty aggressively.

Can someone explain the VIP system to me? Should I be looking into this at some point?

Also are there any scripts/software that make multitabling easier?

Thanks!

You're on the wrong program.

Hey WPN, you guys continue to get my rake but it's pretty sad when the "downtime and disconnects" thread has 5x more replies than any other WPN thread. Please attend this issue. I just posted in another thread how even when there isn't lag at WPN, there is still lag. Mutltiabling can get pretty frustrating when it takes up to 3 seconds sometimes for a hand to fold. It should be instant, it shouldn't be that hard to fix this issue. Please think about the steps it will take to fix these annoyances and do them. I'm pretty sure the small lag issues also affect tables from properly popping to the front. When i stack my tables, often times I simply can not get to the active table. I will attempt to cycle to it by holding Alt+tab, which cycles your active applications. But for whatever reason, very frequently, I cant open the active table, it gets stuck.

Hey guys, I've been studying the thread on the elite vs RB, and am planning to move over to ACR from Bovada for several very good reasons, and am trying to figure out what has changed about the chart on prof RB since it sounds like the VIP program has been cut back a little.

I know that tourny bucks are no longer an option, and the chart seems to indicate at the time it was made you could buy the $1500 cash in store as colonel, although looking at ACR's web site it seems like you can now only get $1500 and $4000 store bonuses as general.

Is the $700/mo rake figure still accurate as far as being the cutoff of when VIP is better than take back?

I plan to put in about 50-60 hours a month, will be 10 tabling 50 NL, so figure ~ 40k hands per month which should be about $700/mo in rake right on the nose. I get that dealt rake builds up faster than WC so it may be a bit more than that.

On that note, since I know the differing rake methods are dependent on player type, I'm TAG around 22/18 so I think dealt would be best for me assuming the above volume is enough.

I see most figures in here used for rb at 27%. I have 35%(brag) rb on bcp. Is there still a volume # where elite would outrun rb at this %?

Looks like it's 200k BP per year, enough to earn the first $2,600 Legendary bonus. That's a bit over $36k rake, not counting SNC or The Beast fees.
