I also play and get 3 -4 chests a day and go up a level and get blue chests, but the gifts are very small and I did not get anything normal except for tickets and coins, maybe someone gets a normal gift!

The next action from poker stars, the more money you lose, the greater compensation, but it will not cover losses ever!!!!!!

They have to make money to survive as a corporation and to fund new projects... You are angry that they don't run at a loss but make profit?

That's actually a new Poker Stars reward program and i don't think thats something Stars should brag about with, simply, they ruined their reward program

because before the new rewards program you got a lot more out of playing poker. Now we were told we would get random big prizes but i'm yet to get anything. The most i got was a freeroll ticket.

You can even buy an xbox one or Ps4 with points... Lol... You have no idea what you are complaining about, it's an excellent snowball-rewards system where if you play a lot per day you keep upgrading chests etc.

Some people would complain if you hung them with a "new" rope...

LMAO...

Sorry. What ever happened to playing poker at any time at any level? Now you need them to "pay" you for this privilege they provide to you???

I suggest you tell them you have problems with "them".

No one here can heal you. Your suffering is personal and obviously has nothing to do with playing poker. Old school here. No gold stars on the fridge. When I played sports as a youngster we learned the difference between losers and winners. Prizes were "won". Success was earned. We were given gifts on Xmas and our birthday.

We considered complaints like yours to be whining and crying.

Pull your big boy britches up and play some poker. Win your rewards. Stop begging.

:;):

God bless...

On which limits do you must to play and how long to get ps4 or xbox? And you asking later:

Why is it ruined?

Id faster buy this ps4 than you get it from ps! :D

Do you play on real money in the time ps had previous rewards system?

Ps doesn't let you pull out money unless you wager it at table so would you rather wager the $320 or would you prefer to guarantee it's spent on a nice console or something like that?

Up to you! :)

You don't understand how to use the star coins, please do the research and then you will understand.

How much rake did you pay for the privilege of playing when you were a kid?

I'm not sure to whom specifically this (very dismissive) post^ refers, but many players who have been active for years online could describe how "rewards" have diminished. Many online grinders used to make their living primarily from rakeback. It's a pretty tall task to beat the rake and profit from small stakes grinding. The possibility really only exists (existed) online. With rakeback on Full Tilt, one could get back a decent percentage of their rake and increase profit/mitigate loss. Stars used to have better rewards too, the rewards system has changed a few times over the years and this new one (Star Coins) sucks in comparison IIRC.
