ROFL

Are we sure this applies to cash game? Here's what the Stars site says:

Breaking News - Prepare for Victory in Vegas! DOUBLE VIP PLAYER POINTS (VPPs) ON ALL WORLD SERIES SATELLITES! If you want victory in Vegas, it pays to prepare. Only at PokerStars do you get paid to prepare. Throughout June, we'll be awarding Double VPPs on ALL WSOP* Cash and Steps Satellites! This means you can earn twice the amount of VPPs normally awarded for the tournament fee of any World Series satellites you enter There’s never been a better time for you to try and win your World Series seat. Don’t miss out on your chance to play at the greatest poker tournament in the world!

Is it just me or do the double VPPs only apply to WSOP sats?

nah i think its for cash games too, i read the pokerstars site carefully and it indicated cash up until 6th of july midnight.

havent tried it out yet tho

Really? I was reading everywhere and couldn't find a cash game mention.

Maybe Im blind? =/

here ya go

To kick off PokerStars 2X in style, we are giving you double VPPs in all our cash games and Sit & Go tournaments (excluding Heads-Up tourneys), from 00:00 ET July 1 through 23:59 ET July 6. This is a great way for you to boost your VIP Club status, and all you have to do is keep playing the same games that you always have. It’s that simple.

best promotion evar?

morons make promotions when i left them omg

n1!
this could make me platinum star for the first time

time to play 10k hands a day wobbly style.

i think they are going to have some kind of vip promotion where u can get to platinum or supernova or whatever evn much faster

o baby

srsly ppl u go crazy over pennies

i just played 2615 hands of NL200 FR and i made 2280 VPPS paying 120$ in rake

platinum = 5700 FPPs = 98$ = 82% rakeback
supernova = 7980 FPPs = 137$ = 114% rakeback

if Pokertracker calculates the rake paid right

114 percent that doesnt sound right to me!

i just realised i had a filter for NL(2) but i also played some pot limit.

i paid 147$ in rake. so 67% for platinum and 93% for supernova

Supernova's probably around 70% but if your Supernova Elite you're probably getting over 100% especially when the later weeks promotions come. There are supposed to be 3 more weeks of promotions that get better and better for the whole month of July. On the page it even mentions something called "double the pot" in cash games which sounds delicious.
