PokerStars confirms new rewards program: Chests - Page 157 - PokerStars: General discussion -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

ggpoker reward > stars chest lol. i cant wait till stars lose more market share to ggpoker. ggpoker crushing it.
I don't understant why anyone would play on stars if you can play on ggpoker n follow their rules

Yeah I think so. In cash NL100 you rake like 11bb/100.

It's been a while since I Played but the rake on the gg zoom format is lower and ifnyou play enough to get on the leaderboards which are always running the rake back is considerably better then on stars.

Allso if you don't cash lbs on a reg basis pvi will make your rb sheet. So in the end you should play there where you will get the best hourly. If you want to grind for rb then play party.

Wow, how did that happen?

I've heard it's because of the rakeback. Maybe some one can confirm.

Anyway, rake on gg is ridiculous at high stakes

Also, GG is available in countries, that Stars isn't. That could be one of the reasons, too.

I play on PS PA. I live in Ohio but own a property in PA, so I only play every / every other weekend and not a ton. I will 8 table 30/50NL for maybe 10 hours over the weekend.

I managed to finish a Chest or 2 every weekend that I am able to play and I am at the Gold level. My first gold chest was 5600 to complete. My second gold chest was 7200 to complete. When I finished this, my third gold chest was 12600 to complete. WTF. How is this determined? And my last reward for 12600 points was $3 gold, 165 points and a $5 Casino bonus. Talk about petty.

I got a prize game football frenzy from my euros chest but how the **** do I redeem it

When I go to my rewards prize games there is nothing clickable to use it

holy **** this is so tilting, they offer free promos but make it hard to redeem

the explanation on their site is outdated too, like ****
