looks like 28% from now til nova (if you hit start at bronze star and go to 100k and then stop) and then 37%+ if you keep playing after that

It has been a few days of beats:

--6bi downswing at 20nl
--left Cake for security reasons
--Full Tilt refused to give me rakeback
--signed up at NoIQ, RB deal good, software is horribad
--cashed out after like 300 hands
--25 hours later and my withdrawal to Neteller is still processing
--have missed out on nearly three days of play
--probably just going to have to start back at Stars tomorrow and try to grind out Gold/Plat Star
--IF ENTRACTION GIVES ME MY GOD DAMN MONEY BACK THAT IS

put another way

platinum star is 23.5%, which you'll presumably have most the year except at the beginning. stellar is ~6%, so 23.5+6=29.5% minus the beginning (7500vpp for plat).

August Volume Prop Bet Pool

Link to Official 2p2 Disclaimer on Prop Bets - http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...postcount=7448

Quote:
Rules
The volume prop bet will have basically the same standard rules as other group volume prop pools that take place around 2p2.

Everyone puts up $50 which goes into a pool. At the end of the month, everyone that meets their goal splits up the pool equally. So if many people miss their goals, the winners win big. If very few people miss their goal (which is the expected case) you just get your money back plus a little bit extra.

Hands must be played at your normal limit, one level below your normal limit, or above your normal limit. This is to prevent you from grinding 5NL rush on the last day of the month to inflate your volume and meet your quota. Hands may be played at FR/6max/HU, but tournament hands do not count.

I am also giving small door prizes of a few dollars each to the person who has the worst losing month in the pool, and the person who exceeds their goal by the largest margin. The prize pool will obviously be paid out 100%, I'm not keeping any of the money for running the pool.

The whole thing is really just a fun self imposed penalty system to help force yourself to put in the volume that you know you should.

The stakes represent your normal stakes, so hands played one level below the listed stakes still count. If there is inaccurate info listed please let me know ASAP.
