Y dont pokerstars do rakeback? It's my fave site n i'm doing great atm n proberly have a bigger bankroll if they did rakeback too, the greedy buggers lol.
The VIP program is basically rakeback, as you get up to Platinum, Supernova and Supernova Elite you can use your VPPs to get money and it's just as good as Full Tilt's rakeback.
That is why the OP is asking the question - why?
So nobody has a rakeback deal on Stars? I was thinking I was at a disadvantage not having one there. Can you get one from FT if you have a pre-existing account? If so, how (begging maybe)?
Not exactly just as good. It gets as good as FT when you get something like 200k or 300k VPPs, so it's only really nice for semi-pro grinders or better.
Also, when you're building a bankroll and moving up in stakes, the fact that you're getting the rakeback earlier than you would with FPP value makes a major difference as it allows you to move up stakes earlier.
They host $500 tourneys for 10 poker points three times a day.
