    Why do Sky give cash game players significantly worse rewards per £1 paid in rake compared to SNG/MTT players?

    I'm not asking as an excuse to moan and am genuinely curious as to the logic behind this business decision.

    @Duesenberg

    Evening Mr Dues.

    Since when did you need an excuse to moan?

    As to your question, I have no idea, but the slick PR man deep inside me sees it differently, cash players don't get worse, SNG/MTT players get better.

    Good promo, almost everyone will benefit. Will be worth bringing my play over in July.

    yeah this promo may bring me over to sky for the month will see how things go generally. I am on the rota for the fri sat and sun. I work 3 day week now 3 12-14 hour days.

    So I am glad this is not the premiership promo as I would have no chance at that and so would have headed to other site for the month if they had done that.

    They don't, at all the reason you get less points for rake in cash is because you pay rake much more often, if you play a £11 MTT for 3 hours you will pay £1 in rake and get 10 points where as if you play cash 5/10 for 3 hours you will pay much higher rake as you pay rake on every hand, and a 3 hour session of 5/10 cash will result in you gaining much more points at least 20+, I learnt this when I played a week where I grinded mainly 5/10 cash although I'm usually an MTT player, if I played 5 nights a week of MTTs I will usually end the week with between 100 and 200 points, the week I grinded cash I had about 800. It's much much easier to grind points playing cash.

    truth is cash game players can play tons of volume on multiple stakes to take advantage of the promo and they don't want that. They will lose far too much hourly rake by paying it back to the grinders. they want to fill up the mtt schedule and keep the sngs running.
