Anyone is getting rakeback from stars? If not, why there are many people still playing there?

I don't believe they do a standard rakeback, but the FPP store has some good stuff. For example, 13,500 pts gets you a $215 worth of tournament cash. You can sell it for real cash or play some MTT to mix it up.

Probably close to just as good, but is it really better? I thought most of those milestone bonuses you had to clear an additional number of base FPP's.

What exactly is the rake on FT? The tables don't show it.

If stars has a 25% less rake. Then the FT rakeback means nothing. Just another thought.

I'll email them and give it a shot, can't hurt.

However, I have read else where that your out of luck.
I heared they had a promotion a while back that allowed you to sign up for rakeback with an existin account. Maybe they will do that again.

Per FTPDOUG they have something in the works for players without RB..They Hope to have it out soon..See the thread FTP answers(can't remember the date)..in the zoo..As of now they will not allow you to switch affiliates..

If you are a decent tournament player, play the 5400 FPP Satellites since the $T can be sold. I get enough FPP to play every few days, and generally can make $200 a bit more than half the time that I enter. It comes out to be about 30-40 percent of rake.

This isn't true. If you buy the $215 tourney ticket for 13500 FPP's, you have to use it to play in the Sunday Million/Warmup. It cannot be used for other tournies or be transferred to other players.

I'm average to sucky...and have played both 50NL/100NL on both sites...and Stars seems way way more fishy then FTP...but I will admit the RB every month on FTP was the [censored].

but for now I'll be staying on Stars...
