How much rake back do full time sky grinders make? Further info on priority reward scheme pls

I made 300 euros rakeback playing 10/20/30 DYM's over 500 games on ipoker in 3 weeks playing part time. 

I don't fully understand the sky reward scheme, if i was to get 10k points / 20k points in a month with an avg buy in of £10 playing sngs how much rakeback could i roughly expect to earn? Is it even possible to achieve 20k points at this level.

I will be roughly playing 1k SnGs a month with avg buy in of £10. 

I would just like an idea to contrast sky reward scheme with ipoker. It seems if i got 10k points i would get £200 back from sky from the usual reward scheme, but at 10k points I will hit the 10% priority reward scheme, what would this mean for me?

Many thanks in advance for your help

Mat

    Hi Mat,

    I'm JP, and look after Priority customers here at Sky.

    Below is an example, not considering any "points-boosting" promotions such as happy days. 

    1,000 £10 SNGs played equally over one calendar month

    1,000 x £1 Reg Fee (for example) =  £1,000 rake.
    10 points/£1 reg fee = 10,000 points.
    2p per point (weekly payments) = £200.
    10% rakeback (Priority rakeback) = £100

    Total - £300/30%

    I will point out that due to our rewards system, rakeback % can vary depending on your play.

    Any questions, just ask.

    Cheers,
    JP.

    Great, thanks. If anyone does grind SnGs and could let me know a feasible volume on sky (im not sure what traffic is like throughout the day/week) that would be great. Just what i needed JP, time to get my grind on.

    We've got quite a few Priority players who play SNG's only. Some put in a ridiculous amount of volume.

    A few keep an eye on the forum, so it wouldn't suprise me if you get a response from one or two!

    Hi Mat

    There's a really good diary by Timmyrara who plays mostly Dyms. A look through there would give you an idea of the kind of volume that is realistic here

    You'll find it on page 4 in Poker chat

    cheers jac35, had a read through, very valuable. If I am still grinding on sky in a months time i may do something similiar for sure. Look forward to coming across Timmyrara on the tables.

    How beatable are DYMS at 10% rake? just interested as I have never added them to my schedule as I dont fancy grinding a 2/3% roi

    if it was easy lad everyone would be doing it, 10% is pretty high for saying you have rake back on top.

    easily beatable, but dont think you would be planning an early retirement.
