Default Re: Rakeback vs Bonus Structure

[ QUOTE ]
I also asked the question in anoher thread but maybe IŽll get a quicker answer here. I signed up for Towergaming with a private rb offer (35%) and they told me combined with their bonuses it would be 65-85% effective rb. Is that true?

[/ QUOTE ]
Yes.

I think you can't get both: rb is deducted from bonuses or bonuses from rb.

That IS getting both. Perhaps the misunderstanding is how the bonuses are deducted. Pretty much any site that deducts bonuses deducts them from the MGR, NOT the RB itself.

IE If I generate $2,000 in rake while clearing $1,000 in bonus, the $1,000 will be deducted from my MGR of $2,000 before the RB is calculated. If I get 30% RB, I will receive $300 in RB ($2,000-$1,000=$1,000*.3=$300). So I effectively "lose" 30% of the bonus from my RB.
