Re: STARS: Reward for 5 million VPP... This would be sick
It certainly is posssible.
I would go for it given the right rewards. What about if they gave out the Aston Martin as a reward above and beyond all the regular rewards. But the Aston Martin runs out end of this year so thats not possible. Lets take this more seriously, someone who is good at math run some numbers. Like what is the total rake we will generate for Stars hitting 5 million. What percentage of that can we expect back ? Can we expect more than 100% rakeback for hitting 5 million ? Would stars possibly lose money on one player for the prospect of the huge promotional scheme it would provide ? Instant team pokerstars member if you hit Supernova Pristine ! And its not really not having a life. If you play 8-10 hours per day its reachable. Like having a regular job, Im sure people who have regular jobs have lives too. We would actually still have more time than people with regular jobs because we would save time on commute. I know if there was a promo for 5 mill next year than that would definately make me go for Elite this year. otherwise I dont really want to get elite because its just not enough money and I dont really care about live tournaments.

Re: STARS: Reward for 5 million VPP... This would be sick
There's no shot in hell of me ever making this because I simply can't play that long, that often. But, something like lifetime 150%+ cash rakeback might make it worthwhile. If the requirement were 2-3 million VPPs, I might make a go at it for the cash rakeback; at 5 million, I wouldn't even bother trying.

Re: STARS: Reward for 5 million VPP... This would be sick
there's only going to be a handful of players that reach elite. it's already pushing the boundaries of a useless level. at 5mil it's completely ridiculous.

Re: STARS: Reward for 5 million VPP... This would be sick
I didn't join Stars till the end of July and August-September is devoted to sports prep. So I was looking at going from Oct-Dec which I decided against. Next year I'll do 1.5M VPP

lol, think about what you're suggesting. [/ QUOTE ] Why? The question was basically asking what the reward would have to be to justify wanting to kill yourself after a year of poker. It doesn't matter if Stars has said they won't/don't want to do cash rakeback, since that's the only thing that comes to mind that could possibly compel me to play that much poker.
