How accurate are MGR reports

Has anyone does any tests regarding how accurate MGr reports are on various sites to see if we are getting the proper payout as offered to us? And if so anyone have some results?

Do you use pokertracker? Compare your total rake # to your affiliates MGR # for you. Remeber to sort by month and site. I wouldn't expect your affilate to cheat this way. Its too easy to check. Remember there may be differences due to point redemption/freerolls and the like.

As long as your using one of the larger well known affiliates you should be fine. These guys may have ocassional problems. But, if people can't trust them they have no business.

MrPurple, does Absolute deduct freerolls and cashing in points for rewards?

I honestly don't know. I don't play there.

Let me clarify this. I am a affiliate. I can see the numbers that the poker room reports as my MGR straight off their site.

i'm asking as to whether anyone has tested to see whether the MGr reports from the poker rooms are accurate. The PT method can only be used for the room which use the contributed method i believe. what about the other methods?

I don't want to out any poker rooms incase we're the idiots here, but we've been testing some sites which supposedly use the dealt method and the numbers just don't add up. Suprise Suprise to the under side.
