I win the PLO100 leaderboard every 3 days or so, I play extremely fast (and don't mindonk). They would have to play atleast 6000 hands to get anywhere close and top 3 get 11-16 buy-ins. Yes, they can be losing players, but with rake the way it is, good chance they are barely breaking even after promo.

I definitely agree, they barely make anything from what I can tell. I typically place top 30 when I play, get my 4-5 buyins from them and 2 or 3 from LB

Strange... so you got the $250 ticket and then only $230 for your satellite win? Seems pretty bullshit tbh

20 is the rake right? So they give you the actual bin minus the rake.

I registered the $210 Pros bounty and got deducted the full $210...

I don´t know how big the rake for the $250 tournament is, but if it is $20 and they dont pay that in $T and hold it back, then the original satellite should pay out $20 more...???

They indeed keeping the tournament fee if you win more than one entry. That is quite audacious...

Can somebody explain how some players on Rush&Cash leaderboards at lower limits than 200NL achieve 50k+ points? 47k seems like it's ordinary, but it seems impossible to me for a normal human being. I have seen 60k even.

Bots? account sharing?

I know that ofcourse. The point system that is.

Is there anything that can be done against this ****? I mean... if a normal person wanted to grind the LB at these stakes then he has no chance.

Points per hand are capped at 20 points (so 4x "bet"), therefore the minbetting to the grave strategy doesn't work. Insurance also only gives +5, same as a bet.

You would really expect you knew this if you made these kinds of accusations.

There might be some people sharing accounts (you can have that checked by doing a fair play report on them), but I think many of them just decide to do a 24-hour grind session and pocket the 13 buy-ins + rakeback, you can lose a lot of money on the table and still end up ahead doing that. Sounds pretty exhausting to me though for a few bucks.

Yeah nothing you can do. They have banned some of those lb abusers like 8gameisfun in the past imo.

Just thought maybe you wanted some input from someone who knows what he is talking about.

I seem to have an affiliate under my GG account from years back (news to me) and I'm not allowed change I've been told. Is It possible to set up another account under a different GG network skin to get a new affiliate/agent under my account or does the same one stay under my account no matter where I go?

Help Is appreciated, thanks

Do you beat the games going for top leaderboard spots in the 100plo pool? I play in there from time to time and just crunching the numbers with 7bi in leaderboard + RB thats a pretty good hourly but I feel 4 tabling for 12+ hours in a high rake environment must make it tough to have a positive winrate. Do you have a big sample?

I usually wouldn't post this but it benefits me if the pool runs all day instead of breaking, so... come and try me.

(Disclaimer: Your mileage will vary. I am pretty good at this poker thing)

Also, FU GG poker for giving me a -11 BI session under EV 2 days ago. Haha.

To preface this, I don't play anywhere near PLO100, but is losing 11 buyins in a day while running 2 BI under EV normal in PLO? Like what you just had?

I'm dabbling in PLO recently and I just had a session like that in PLO and idk whether I should feel like that's normal or not.

No big deal tho, 10-20 buy-in swings are very normal in PLO. It was meant to be cheeky fun.

just to make it clear:

if priomedope stats are accurate (or close) and we calculate with 8bb/100 rake
then you are massively loosing before LB and RB.

~110k hand
~8800$ rake
~3800$ winnings

in my eyes this is pretty far from "pretty good"!!!

though i see you can be up quite big cos of LB+RB.

Additionally, the game isn't exactly easy, you usually have between 30-80 seats and most people are 4-tabling. As I said, I implore you to try to beat my results, please say hi at the tables!

I'm curious, how do you average 100% rakeback? I feel like the LB's don't give that much value unless you place very high up and the fish buffet is a joke with the PVI. Plus the LB's are now cash dollars instead of USD which doesn't give you money.
