Title: Live rakeback
Post by: Longines on December 14, 2017, 03:02:05 PM
Thought this was pretty innovative, was in Birmingham yesterday and stopped off at the Genting Resorts World on the way home. For each raked pot that you win they give you a chip. Each hour they collect the chips, end of the month you get the rakeback in cash, 1 chip=£1.

Obviously benefits the regs rather than the occasional rec but think I'd prefer this to loyalty 'freerolls' etc.

Grovsnor Walsall (i think its the same in all G's tbh) have been offering £1/hour rakeback in player points (effectively cash) per hour spent playing cash for years now.  Recently reduced to 60p/hour in the last few months.  Resorts obviously took it on board to compete.  Haven't been since they started this.  Is it a short term promo or long term?

Bristol do similar, chips go towards a tourney freeroll

Dunno. Might have something on their FB page.

4 cash tables running; 1 NLHE and 3 PLO (2 x 1/1 and 1 x 2/5) - just the way it should be.
