Default Re: How long do I have to grind for a iPod??

disclaimer - no idea of how good the ipod FPP value is or isn't in the Stars store.


Step 1. Play for an hour on however many tables you normally play and see how many points you earn. Then multiply it out.

At some point you will be at silver VIP status which is 1.5x FPP earn-rate.

On NL25 6-max at about .13VPP/hd perhaps and 100-120 hds/hr I'm going to guess 15 VPP per table-hour.
So 4-tabling is 60 VPP/hour or 90FPP's/hr if you're already silver-status.

Crank it up to 5 tables for 100+ FPP's an hour and you can make it to your 17k FPP's in less than 170 hours.
Awesome!!

And don't forget that at 4k VPP's for the month your VIP status increases to gold so you are earning FPP's at 2x instead of 1.5x.

The occasional tourney won't make much of a difference.
$5 tourney earns 3 VPP's. $10 tourney earns 5 VPP's.
