The nits still nitted it up even though they earned a bit less, same for the ratholers.
You're not going to see more rakeback unless you're playing like 30+ VPIP and constantly building massive pots postflop, or in other words unless you're a losing player. And losing players of course are going to go use their increased points to buy some pointless 5% effective rakeback crap in the store. In the end everybody gets screwed besides the site. This is nothing but a disguised rake increase paired with a blatant rake increase.
oh well fk our live then, curious to see my numbers when it happens tomorrow tho, few years ago I was playing on ongame and ipoker at the same time, before thes Essence thing that ongame is now using.
Ongame being contributed and ipoker dealt, I always felt I was receiving more on ongame playing 26%vpip or something, cause I mean, unless you're playing nl10 it's pretty rare to play with many donks with 50%+ and such, so as soon as you are slighty more active than the table avg you are suppose to receive a bigger share with the new method no?
