supernova is 30% rakeback if you take 1500$ for points bundles.

if you do amazon or expedia vouchers it's even a bit more.


but whats the deal with 4x% party like site... i guess I need to have a PM [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

No, I just meant with 25% rb at stars you pay an equal absolute amount at party with 43% rb, because the stars rake is lower to start with. So I was comparing to the various, easily found, 30% RB deals on different rooms.

Of course it still can't compete with some 100% rb prop-deal.

Thats exactly what I was thinking. a 6-man table at Absolute usually means at least 3 2+2ers. I remember two weeks ago thre was a Cowboys33 siting and I swarmed to get a seat on every single one of his tables. On two of the tables I could name 3 of the others players from this site and the third I new the screen name of all 4 other 2+2ers
