Re: Stars VIP Wild speculation
 

VIP Freerolls will remain on Saturdays. The $20k event will have 10 minutes blinds, so players should be in the money about 75 minutes into the event. One problem players pointed out from last year was a "I played 4 hours and won $15". This shouldn't happen with the new formats. We will run this format for 3 months and based on the feedback we will make changes if needed.

500k VPP level reward was an example

We will have level rewards at
200k
300k
400k
500k
750k

Scottyy - any truth to the rumor that you aren't going to limit the number of $5k for 50k FPP purhases for your 500k VPP'ers?.

I could really use the extra $150k+.

Thanks.

Re: Stars VIP Wild speculation
 

Level rewards will be one time offers at each level. We should have a guess on what date someone will hit 500k VPPs in 2007. I'll take April 22nd.

I do think 500k is attainable for me if I really cranked it out this year.

MB, how many hands do you think that equates to (for you)?

PS... would be interesting to know how many players achieved 200K+ VPP in 2006... anyone want to take a guess?

Re: Stars VIP Wild speculation
 

scotty,

any idea on whether they'll keep the 650 and 1500 bonuses for the entire year?

I'd guess not many. LOL. Maybe 50.

I just asked RainKhan how many he has..he said 580K

Bib,m

I agree on pretty much of everything you post here, but this got me confused:

[ QUOTE ]
if I'm going to pursue the 200k and 300k stuff in 2007 I'm going to want to have 3.5 FPP's to do it.
If I'm not going to pursue the 200k and 300k stuff then I really don't care if I'm getting 3.5x FPP's.

So they are related.

You are SN, therefore you get a 250% bonus on your VPP as FPP.

When you aim for the 200k, 300k, whatever, you still have to make 200k VPP, 300k VPP, whatever VPP. The 250% bonus doesn´t help you in any way.

What am I not getting here?

Will there be higher bonus for the 200k, 300k, 400k, 500k, 750k as well? Or is it only the 1 million player who gets a higher bonus (400%FPP bonus)? Getting a higher bonus would be a way higher incentive for me than all the freerolls. I´m doubt that I´m able to make the 1 million though, since I do have a full time job plus other interest. 500k shouldn´t be that tough, 750k is probably aimed pretty high for me.

I guess there is a nice gap between 250% bonus (SN right now) and 400% (1 million). Could be easily filled with the smaller SN levels [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

We will review them in May and make a decision at that time.
