If you haven't heard of what this is, it is a jackpot that gets dispersed to the players based on the amount of rake they have done. It is like a rake race, so the more you rake, the more you make, and if you barely play you will get nothing. They have a huge tournament promotion going on at the moment, some very nice price pools (this is in parenthesis because I'm meaning for the American market).
Thanks for the info, jay.
Yes, I remember reading about The Beast. Do their cash games & SNG's fill up faster than they used to? How long are the late reg times for tournys?
I can see how players who are only focused on money (wink) would like playing there, but for me it's as much about the game experience and the other games besides Hold 'em when I can get them, which is why I mentioned I enjoy sometimes playing for play money on Stars. Also, I might not be a strong enough player to be competitive in their cash games. What are their lowest stakes?
