Re: Stars VIP Wild speculation
[ QUOTE ]
Players who are reaching 750k+ VPP are paying A TON more rake than the 100K VPP guys, so what is wrong with more rewards going towards them?

Nothing, PokerBoy. I think dramatically more rewards should (and DO) go to players reaching 500-750k+ VPPs. I actually think your ideas are solid as far as adding more incentives between 500k-1M and make perfect logical sense.
I have no problem with people voicing their displeasure with freerolls or the opinion that they hold no value to them.
But IMO arguing that the freerolls should be scrapped to eliminate a lack of equal treatment, then re-allocating the funds to 500k+ players (since the SuperNova budget is fixed and a zero-sum game), while claiming this is out of a sense of fairness and not self-interest is disingenuous at best.
Players in the 100k-200k range are lower volume, lower profit customers of Stars. Obviously they deserve a dramatically lower financial incentive than those generating 5x the revenue. That doesn't mean arbitrarily eliminating a $1,000 (or $3,000) incentive for those players would be a wise marketing decision by Stars.
