Default Re: The myth of PS rakeback

[ QUOTE ]
Another glaring omission from this discussion is the fact that many mid to even high volume players like to spread their play around several sites.

It has not been omitted. Many (most?) high volume players are not likely to have any trouble hitting SuperNova in a year, and to maintain it year after year - even after spreading their play across sites.
[ QUOTE ]
Ignoring several important considerations to bolster ones stance does little to add to any intelligent debate.

[/ QUOTE ]
The people who I feel this is directed towards have repeatedly implored people to do their own calculations and find whatever suits them individually.

I think it goes without saying that many would come to PS if it had RB.

[/ QUOTE ]
Some may. Some may not. Meh.

[ QUOTE ]
It only has RB if a lot of criteria are met and a lot of contraints as well as ongoing commitments.

[/ QUOTE ]
To clarify for readers, the criteria is "playing poker." That's not likely to be a difficult hurdle for online poker players.

[ QUOTE ]
Really in all honesty can that be called RB?

[/ QUOTE ]
Don't call it RB then. Call it a Hippopotamus if you want. For the vast majority of players, FPPs can be redeemed for cash. Money in your account can buy the same stuff, regardless of whether it came as "rakeback" or as an "FPP bonus".

This is increasingly becoming a semantic and silly discussion. Play at whatever site you prefer.
