As we have seen in the past, there are going to be some examples of people getting more and some less. But overall, as some have already pointed out, it will benefit many more players.
We're naturally are trying to balance lots of things to make it accessible to many, keeping it simpler to understand and recognising / rewarding loyal customers too. Far more people will get a bonus than did previously.
Also, do remember that other rewards and promotions will be coming on top of this so this is not all the value that will be available at Sky Poker.
In Response to Re: Sky Poker Rewards : why would they advertise how terrible it is. it's called marketing. you talk up whatever good things you can find, even if you have to be economical. watch out for estate agents they are the masters of this Posted by beaneh
My friend bought a 'Light & airy period property in a vibrant area' at an auction, it was a crack den with no roof.
Can anyone help me out. I'm on priority plus and make between 20k - 40k c4p a month. Could you break down what I will get back with the new systems for 20k, 30k and 40k?
Very much appreciate it. Its like getting a pay cut from work!
As someone who earns but a hand full of points this will probably be to my benefit. But I can see a lot of people that will have the hump. The last time c4p's were changed the initial payment(i.e. 500,1000,2000,etc) payed less but this was off set by a smoother graduated pay-out structure.This system seems to re-introduce bigger steps to the pay-out structure which means re-introducing the end of month dash to the next level(at the lower to mid levels). Mind you saying that what is the difference between 5000 - 9999 points = 2.0p per point & 10,000 - 19999 points = 20% Rakeback?9999 x 2p=£199.98 & 10000 x 20%=£200(at 10 points per £ of rake)

i think this is correct. these figures are based on cash only play with no happy hours.
20k - £833 30k - £1500 40k - £2000
the figures starti dropping if sng/mtt are involved as you get more points per pound, same with happy hours

Hey mate,
Assuming you ONLY play cash which I'm pretty sure you do then....
Points
Rake Paid
Old System
New System
20000
£3,333.33
£880.00
£833.33
30000
£5,000.00
£1,680.00
£1,500.00
40000
£6,666.67
£2,400.00
£2,000.00
Them figures are all based on the fact you would be Priority +3 in old and new system which I'm sure you are.
Just to repeat, other offers are coming to compliment and add to this offer. Sky Poker rewards is though the foundation of various rewards and promotions we offer.

Hi lambert,
Thanks for that buddy. All seems to be going against me at the mo. Firstly the weighted contribution and now this.
Makes me think I'm better off at my previous site. Another £50 a week Im going to lose out on.
I can't see why sky don't want to look after the higher raking players?
I resepct the fact skys a business and is there to make money as are we all but why cant the site just give the players a WARNING when things are going to change and affect them. Its a job for some of us and your are basically giving us a wage cut without warning or notice.
Im very irked off at this one and probably wont play again on sky till these new rewards are actually announced and feel it beneficial to come back and play on sky.

The current C4P's system will remain until the end of this month. Four weeks isn't a long time, I know.
The other players are already here and they will continue to arrive if sky keep promoting the site. New/recreational players don't look at their % rb before signing up.

Sorry you feel that way but we are telling people about this almost a month in advance and being open about it. We always try to keep people informed and this forum is a key part of that.
Just to repeat, other offers are coming to compliment and add to this offer. Sky Poker rewards is though the foundation of various rewards and promotions we offer. Thanks for the feedback. Posted by Sky_Poker
Can we possibly get a timescale on when other promotions related to this might be announced. Obviously Happy Hours are going to lose much of their purpose under this new system. So too Early Bird.
I'm not likely to be affected, given I ran-up about 20 points last month. I'm sure others are interested, though.

hi ajs, new account?
you literally are clueless about poker and the poker economy.

We genuinely do care and try to be open about it, it wouldn't suit you or us if we didn't.
Higer raking customers will still get better rewards and remember this is not all we offer in terms of value to our customers.

The "higher raking players" still get a pretty nice deal.
