The micro rake race is actually pretty sick. 20BI bonus for a 25NL mass-tabler who's willing to put in 18+ hours in a day.

with a clearance rate of just 1 VIP Player Point (VPP) per dollar. It’s the easiest clearance rate we’ve ever offered

Who cares when it's only $10?...

No, they just moved their biggest event from number 4 to 7. Typical Pokerstars' solution.

I don't think there is more than 1% probability for that to happen

Even more ridiculous is the 10%. seems like they want to use the number 10 all over the place, it's just stupid.

They could have done something more simple like 'Deposit $10 we give you $10'. There's your stupid number 10.

Maybe a Stars rep can answer me this:

You're having your 10th anniversary. You've announced some disgustingly good MTT promotions ($10m SM, WR attempt, $1m Storm, Red Spade Open) which is good PR.

Why would you ruin it all with the most ludicrously small reload bonus in history? That leaves such a bitter taste in your mouth that the good PR is for nought.

You'd have done better by not having a reload at all.

25NL mass-tablers don't stand a chance. I could 18-table PLO25 and make like three times as many VPP's as any NL player could.

^ yup that's a big flaw in that promotion also.

Now compare a plo25 player with a nl2 player.
They should've created a nano's level awarding nano prizes also. That would make many nano players happy and stars didn't have to spend a lot of money.

It started well, but it's going downhill fast!

Even if it's a longshot, the PCA giveaway is a great promotion.
The guaranteed donkaments are good for creating action I guess.
The reload bonus is a joke. Let's hope it picks up for the five remaining.

We are conducting a Ponzi scheme just like our brother, FullTilt! Say goodbye to your bankrolls, grinders!

LOL at switching the big number 4 with big number 7. The big guarantee donkaments might bring in fish but they offer pretty much nothing to grinders especially to the cash game ones. The 10% $10 bonus is just cringe worthy. The rake race is worthless to most since some games award a lot more VPP-s than others and the micro gap is too big. Unless the VIP store sale has some spectacular and cheap merchandise and instant cash bonuses with a rate of 0,016 I would call this one of the worst Stars promotions ever. It is right up there with micromania.
