15k points in 60 days, this bonus is impossible for anybody but a heavy multitabler to clear, right? I have no use for this bonus really, and I imagine most of the people depositing under it don't either.


What I find unsettling about this is the sucker's nature of the bonus. It just doesn't seem like stars.

Well you don't have to deposit the full $1000.

I was getting more than 300 points per hour four-tabling even before the improvements to the FPP calculations. That's less than an hour per day to clear this.

They are rewarding people for not playing at their site.

All NL/PL tables up to $1-2 blinds will give the first FPP when the rake is $.40.

[/ QUOTE ]

Just did some quick math using my PT stats.

At $100NL full ring, this works out to an increase of 1.76 times the average base VPP* per hand. (If you previously averaged 100 VPP/Hour, you'll now average 176 VPP/Hour**)

At $200NL full ring, this works out to an increase of 1.56 times the average base VPP* per hand. (If you previously averaged 100 VPP/Hour, you'll now average 156 VPP/Hour**)

Thanks for the raise Lee!!!

Love the speed tables, btw!!!


*Assuming he meant VPP and not FPP

**Does not include increases due to increased hands per hour (ie: Speed tables)

Very impressed with Stars the moment. I didn't read through the entire thread and im sure most of these have already been suggested. I find certain areas of the stars software lacking in comparision to party:
1) Specific table filters
2) Auto post blind button avail at all times
3) If 6 max received the same % SNG/MTT players did id be at stars in a heart beat
4) Ability to snap/lock tables and move then much like Party Planner did.
5) Improve notes
6) Increase speed

As I said earlier in this thread when this was all speculation, one effect this change will have is that there will be far more VIPs at every level of the program. As great as it is for those of whom this change benefits one thing I really hope that happens is that the value of the freerolls in the new year (or whatever replaces them) is adjusted to accomodate the increased numbers i.e. that the existing VIPs do not directly lose out due to the creation of many new ones.
