One thing that's important about this that no-one has mentioned is that its not going to affect cash games $3/$6 and above.

I believe that the skins dont think there is enough liquidity in the bigger games to justify splitting those as well.

Cant say who it was as it was in a private conversation, but it's someone everyone knows and is in a position to be very clued up on the fine details of this.

And GOD-DAM the WSOP

AND SHALLOW WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU!?! Sad

Strange it's only lower stakes. Thought the last think they would want is some sports betting whale shitting it all off to someone on 70%rakebackpoker.com

yeh, pretty sure he knew that was a long shot!

@Alun agree, odd. Think it's because hig stakes liquidity on iPoker is kind of fragile atm, but most of the big punters prolly come from those sites anyways

But it will, because the iPoker1 skins probably will be hugely penalised for havign such 1 sided traffic (winning vs losing players) there will not be enough deposits on the whole for iPoker1 and they will eventually have to leave. The skins cannot make money anymore as they cant take a free ride off the iPoker2 skins who bring in the fish.

yh you're abso right, it's not really any reprise for the smaller ipoker skins, the only relevance of it I guess is that players on smaller skins with RB deals can still play higher without having to move, until the inevitable happens and most of the smaller skins just fade off

but who gives a fuck about rakeback? its about about hourly, if you get 100% rakeback but playing against other legit sickos when you can get 50% through a vip system and play vs the regular fish then theres just no choice. thats why it would be so surprising that ipoker would let them do it like this, because atm verybody will have to convert over.
