What do you mean a rake trap? Challenge is not only for poker so it most def can't be one. Btw love it how people are still upset about the chests and promos. How many years it takes for people to undestand they will never be good and definetely not getting better any time soon?

Not sure if this is the case in your situation though.

I didnt do the math but I started playing again some zoom NL25 and 50 on stars playing up to 3 tables and after playing daily around 3-4 hour session I am now on my way to the "black chest" right now at platium and I think the rakeback is quite decent. You nearly get almost a whole buyin for NL25 so yeah its not super great but its better then nothing. I assume its something like 10% RB which is still better then sites like unibet and co

My last couple of months went gold chests 5000-7500 requirement,
unlocked 10 and upgraded to platinum , first chest was 15000 points. second chest 120,000 points and its been at 120k since. (120k pts = $1200 USD raked)

Two diamond chests I unlocked were:

1 - $65 cash , 1500 stars coins

2- $0 cash , Freeroll ticket , 1500 stars coins
