Stars VIP Wild speculation

[MicroBob]

I want to be earning 3.5x FPP's from the very beginning of the year because of the value.
Having to earn my first 100k VPP's in 2007 at only 2.5x FPP's would suck.

I only had 30k VPP's to go. Stopping short only to have to start over would have really been wasting those 70k VPP's I had already earned.

I would end up with a total of 170k VPP's where I was STILL earning only 2.5x or less.


If you had 85k to go instead of only 30k then it would be silly to cram all that into December (although apparently some people are doing this).

Because 115k VPP's at 2.5x or less really isn't much worse than 100k VPP's at 2.5x or less.
Plus, there's the additional risk that you end up falling just short of SN and have to start over anyway.

I believe that finishing off these last 30k VPP's now earned me an extra $1100 in the following year (roughly the value of the extra 70k FPP's I'll get).

Will there be higher bonus for the 200k, 300k, 400k, 500k, 750k as well? Or is it only the 1 million player who gets a higher bonus (400%FPP bonus)? Getting a higher bonus would be a way higher incentive for me than all the freerolls. I´m doubt that I´m able to make the 1 million though, since I do have a full time job plus other interest. 500k shouldn´t be that tough, 750k is probably aimed pretty high for me.

I guess there is a nice gap between 250% bonus (SN right now) and 400% (1 million). Could be easily filled with the smaller SN levels [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I would almost guarantee that the 200k-500k levels have an additionaly FPP bonus over nova.

I bet that there are level bonuses for them as well.

Scotty: I am literally drooling over my keyboard right now. Keep the updates coming PLEASE!

[MicroBob]

Scotty - Will you offer new drool-proof keyboards in the VIP store?

[KLJ]

500k will be my goal, about 900k hands or so. should be interesting.

I saw pokerstars testing their $50K and $20K freeroll earlier. I tried to register but you needed a password, LOL no luck. Looks like it will be happening sooner than later.
I'm excited about the changes. Prior I was wondering if I should still be playing at stars after I reached SN, but now it seems like there are better rewards to reach for. It's a nice improvement.

Web pages are now live. Link below has info on Supernova rewards.

I might as well close all my other poker accounts because I won't have time to play elsewhere anymore.
