You have a hard time viewing things not only from your perpective, don't you?! The guy 1-2 tableing Micros would need to play >15 hrs a week before getting into the rewards. I guess that's more than the average REC is gonna do. In what way is that benificial for anyone?

This is the last I'm responding to you. My point is party is not excluding anyone from the rb system. Is it hard to make it playing nanos? Definitely. Are they excluded from the rb in nanos? Definitely not. You can't make everyone happy and this time it sucks if you play the smallest games few hours a week.

Should poker sites start handing out participation trophies for everyone who logs in at least once a week?
(So nobody is left out or has to put effort into anything of course)

I think what is trying to be said here is that maybe another tier should be added so nano stake players can also enjoy the new loyalty program. Rake $10/wk and get back something.

Make it achievable for 'everyone'. Having the floor at $25 rake will really limit a lot of players from getting anything and that simply isn't fair because they don't put in enough volume at the limits they are comfortable playing.

The 25$-requirement will cut out a lot of 1-2 tableing net-depositors from rakeback. Every Soviet-"I make a living on NL2" will rake the 25$. Not sure why you want the first group of players not to get something back.

They could just make it so if you don't make the 25 points in a week it rolls back onto the next one until you hit 25.

yes they should. Anything that gets recs to the table, should be done.

Looks like I better get to work. Thanks for the info.

i`m a nano player and i don`t think absolutely everyone should benefit from it - u should have incentives to reach higher limits

(and generally speaking) besides this, party can rake you back, you can`t nit your way up again multitabling. the skill gained from solvers nowadays won`t let you - at least i hope it doesn`t

Yes, it should....and it would be especially in your interest that everyone gets something back. Give everyone something back, more money on the tables.

Its achievable for everyone. Just grind zygna if you too cheap to play w a 10$ stack. That anything below NL10 even ever existed is a giant joke...

Takes about 300 sng heros a day to reach the 100k points in diamond club, pretty tough but doable I guess, especially if traffic there improves. The 100 regs will acheive the amount pretty easily- 60 odd games a day.

where is 50nl on here?

Whats the rake like in bb/100 ? For nl25/nl50 and nl100, anyone has some stats for that.

May I wish for christmas that this gets fixed?

Bumping an old thread.

12 months on:

i) has party's software improved?
ii) did the opt in thing get fixed?

separately, as i'm from the uk and am interested:

iii) is party the best site for SS grinders? Value with security are concerns of mine.
iv) is there a zoom type game for PLO @ 1/2? how many tables can you play simultaneously?

i) yes, drastically
ii) not sure what you mean, but probably

iii) By SS do you mean small stakes?
iv) there is zoom PLO and NL, $2 to $500

Cheers

i) i assume you play on party regularly then? whats the max number of normal tables you can play simultaneously? for zoom, how many entries can you have in a pool?
ii) how do you receive your rakeback? (the opt in thing was mentioned at the start of thread, in that you had to request that you want to be involved in rakeback so if you forget you don't receive any for the week)
iii) from your experience then (and this applies to any1 reading), what are the best sites for UK players?
iv) do the PLO zoom games run regularly?

Bit of background: I want to play poker, I want to get v good (and have been learning for a while) but I don't have a bankroll (so rake level is a concern), and I want to play a game that has longevity. I am happy to specialise in 6max PLO eg, but if no games run then may be my time should be used elsewhere.

i) i only play on party now, stars rakeback is shite and no promotions. Normal tables, I've had at least 12 I think, I'm gonna say probably 20 though, maybe 16? For zoom it's 4. Pretty sure I've had 2 zoom and 4 regular open simultaneously. So if you could in theory rip 4 zooms and like 10 regs or somethin crazy.

ii) you just opt in once, and that's it, it's paid into ur accnt every sunday, you don't have to do anything. happy hours are a nice little bonus to get rakeback points a little faster too.

iii) i'm from canada so not sure, but i think PP is based in UK?

iv) i don't play zoom plo but if you wanna get better i recomend playing fewer regular tables (which run more frequently) and working on your game rather than ripping thousands of hands in zoom and not soaking anything in

Thanks for the in-depth response Razor.

Without sounding too intrusive, can you tell me what is your standard game and if cash, how many hands/month you play.

I appreciate the advice on improvement but without sounding big-headed I've been following 2p2/NVG since 2010 so obviously I will def be the next Chip Reese

Yeah no worries, played about 16k hands last month I think. Honestly, online cash these days is just ****ing hard. Ten years ago it seemed like nobody knew how to play heads up, then I took 7 years off and now I'm currently trying to beat NL10 6max while trying to avoid the Russian regs.

Tourneys are where it's at but they can be so tilting to grind. $5.50-$33 is still hugely profitable if you have the roll.

"hugely profitable" in other words, you can just about scrape a Western World minimum wage if you're extremely good

the amaya team, or consultants. must be the absolute nut low.
Will be a minor player if they keep this team on in 10 years.

Hey guys, i wonder how many hands do you need to play in order to achieve the 40% RB at PartyPoker ? (just playing fastforward)
