correct me if Im wrong in finding this out, I counted up how many fpps =f I got , I multiplied that by 1.5 cents and then divided that by the mrg =m to get the rakeback %. Is this how u do that?

f*$0.015/m= rakeback

You meant mgr.

Yes, this is a decent way of doing so. But you're probably not factoring in everything that VIPs on PokerStars receive. For instance, there are weekly and monthly freerolls. Also, if you use the points in the fpp store or play tournaments with them, your .015 value is likely to be a little bit higher. The .015 figure comes from the value of the bonuses. And if you're playing quite a bit, you should also factor in the milestone bonuses at the 200k,300k,400k,500k,and/or 750k marks.

To determine your mgr in pokertracker, go to the summary tab. Divide total rake by players to find out the average amount of rake paid per player. This is the dealt method of calculating rakeback, which is most commonly used throughout the industry.
