Pokerstars VPP
Pokerstars must be giving bonus VPP's in December. I just finished playing about an hour of $1/2 limit holdem (68 hands) and I have 100 VPP's. Guessing that they are doubling them this month.

Re: Pokerstars VPP
Don't think they are doubling them for a month and usually they don't double vpp's without informing first.
are you absolutely sure you didn't play anything else in addition to those 68 hands? |
Re: Pokerstars VPP
Just played a few hands of 1/2 limit to check.
4 hands raked $0.50...got 4 VPP's. Don't think they are doubling them. Think OP miscounted or something. |
Re: Pokerstars VPP
I just finished a 5 hour session and when I checked my VPP it was about what I expected
no way stars doubles VPPs this month, that would be pretty retarded. Everyone is going to play a sick amount of hands this month anyway already |

[/ QUOTE ] yup, all VPPs reset jan 1st, hence why this will be a sick volume month, everyone trying to make supernova, or whatever their next milestone bonus is hopefully that means the games will be really soft this month, cuz Im gunna be playing like 50 hours a week [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] I imagine ill fall behind to, so come dec 29th, ill prolly do some insane 48 hours straight session |
Re: Pokerstars VPP
I think this is more likely a sample size issue than anything. I just played a 1148 hand session and got 525 VPP at $1/2 limit, so that's like .457 VPP/hand, which is a lot more than the .338 I usually get. I did run at like 5BB/100 and 76% W$SD, so there were some big pots (the games were goooood), but it's usually pretty consitant. I think Friday night just yields better booty.

Re: Pokerstars VPP
I played 5 hours last night and got 8000. Had it been double, I definitely would've noticed.

Re: Pokerstars VPP
i played 1743 Hands of 5/10 and received 2154 VPPs
I'd expect around 1900 |

Re: Pokerstars VPP
if i had played 10 times that number of hands, i would say i get >10% more fpps
after 1743 hands it's most likely just variance, although i thought it was strange, since the tables weren't any looser than most times. |

It's impossible to get more than 1 VPP per hand at 1/2 limit because the max-rake is $1 thus the OP was obviously mistaken....either that or Stars just decided to give him some extra VPP's just for kicks. |
Re: Pokerstars VPP
I think what happened was that they started the clock for this month a little early. I marked my vpp total at midnight and stars is showing more this month than I've earned today by like 100.

Re: Pokerstars VPP
It would be so awesome if Stars did a 1 day (or even just a half day) double VPP promotion as a "Race for your VIP level" thing. I'm looking at ~95k hands this month to try to get to my milestone bonus level.
Definitely gonna be tough to start up a SNE chase in January if I put in that kind of December |
