 At this rate which I plan to sustain I will make Supernova by the end of the year 100% but is rakeback better?
 
 I mean its so bleh cuz I make like 1.5k$ rake and 27% of that would be around 400-500$ which is a decent amount of money.
 
 Also on a sidenote yesterday gave 6max a shot (4tabling only) and playing my standard what I believe is a LAG game... went ok (huge sample obv).
 
 
  
 But seriously people do you think I should go for rakeback or wait to get supernova which I will most likely (unless I go busto obv).

 this is for NL 25 FR on Goldstar:
 
 I made 30 FPP's for every $ in rake.
 So if u do the math and buy the 285 $ bonus for every 24.000(?) FPPs you will get 34% rakeback.
 
 Should be alot higher for platinum.
 
 So I guess aslong as you keep playing FR and buy the cash bonuses you should be very well served on PS.

 edit: they arent running this week cause mill is 1k buyin
