can anyone link me to "how to earn points" i cant find it [/ QUOTE ] For SNGs, 5 points per dollar, and there are multipliers based on your star level (gold, platinum, and supernova). If I recall correctly it's almost 27% for Amazon gift cards, and now my math says 19% for cash. Take that for what it's worth.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Something like $1500 for 100K FPPS? [/ QUOTE ] It's 100K to buy a bonus, which is 10,500 base (not 3.5x) FPP for $1,500... Which if my math is correct ~19.19% "rakeback." Yeah, you use to get higher on PP... So who cares? Stop complaining about no RB. Seriously. (this isn't directed at OP or anyone else, just a general feeling). I think I'm sticking with Amazon FPP anyways - I'm really liking them [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] eric, i'm so unclear on this stuff, please help: what do you mean 10.5k base? is this something about the distinction between fpp and vpp i'm missing again? c [/ QUOTE ] VPP doesn't have the multipliers that FPP have. So you need to get 10,500 @ 5points/dollar.

4) Please deal out the cards faster when players are all-in. [/ QUOTE ] Actually like this better than party. It at least gives you time to see the backdoor flush get there.

Not sure what the constraints are on buying UK or whatever gift cards and using/selling them.

BTW what % do you guys think are pros playing in SNGs. Or at least 6-8 table SNGs?
