This is at least says the rakeback.com site. According to a recent article, the agreement of 27% rakeback that several players had no longer in force. This change will apply to all players and a new loyalty program will be unveiled soon by Full Tilt Poker (we will notify you as soon as it will be made public).
PokerStars for its part has never offered direct rakeback, rakeback classic. It was (and is still), a VIP program that rewards players with points redeemable against various articles, tournaments, cash entries, etc. What will look the FTP program? Will it be similar to PokerStars?
It is bad news for the small and medium players and probably a good for the big players. As we know, PokerStars, more you play, the more you raise your VIP level and the higher your VIP level is high, more your discounts are great. The system VIP at PokerStars rakeback offers between 7% and 78% discount according to your VIP status. So for smaller players is less than 27%, but if you decide to put the volume, your rakeback could (told well could since there is no evidence that the FTP system will be similar to that of PokerStars) be higher than you receive in the past.
Is this good news or bad news for you?
