Poker Stars January VIP Club Store Sale - Page 7 - PokerStars: General discussion -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Perhaps it was an accident that someone outside Stars was shown the information. I think someone just left a switch on somewhere.

In other words, no one was supposed to see it. Support isn't supposed to give the info out, either.

Maybe hast to do with the internet browser version or something... Just a guess.

Only bonuses that hadn't cleared yet from what I've read.

I don't see why they would do 1 and not the other. The only thing is that it probably takes them an extra 90 seconds to manually debit cash and credit fpps and they don't want to do any extra work except press a button.

I'm pissed!

Indeed. Best clothing item on the list IMO. The Green two-tone shirt is kinda nice if it wasn't for the pokerstars.com logo on the front. Sweatshirt obviously has a huge logo, but most people won't know at all what it is.

50$, 650$, 1500$ bonus are better then SN 4000$ bonus. 285$ is worst. How exactly do people manage to make enough FPPs to buy these without going broke if they can't do simple math/research?

I would recommend buying the $650 and $50 bonuses then plus maybe some tournament/step entries if that's your thing.

It looks like there is also a red pokerstars logo on the left shoulder as well? Can anyone comment on what other logos the new hoodie has besides the big spade on the front? Thanks.

I'm not, though I imagine you still have someone to root for since Brett Favre is still playing

2 Sunday Million tickets would cost the same as the $285 reward bonus, yet the tickets would be worth a lot more (430 > 285). (I know you can only buy 1 Sunday Million ticket, just sayin.) I guess if you have more FPP than you know what to do with then it's a good idea to buy the $285 bonus, otherwise wait for better value stuff like the steps and sunday million tickets.

P.S. If you use a Sunday Million ticket to enter the Sunday Million, do you still get the 82.5 VPP? Kinda funny if it works that way, it's like getting rakeback on rakeback.

I assume you still have to clear the VPP's to release these discounted bonuses?

I have 26K FPP's at Platinum Star...what should I do with them regarding the cash bonuses to get the best value? Why is everyone saying the $285 bonus is such bad value?

Thanks!!!
