ScotchRox,

You seem like the man with the most info on Games Grid.  I just heard of the
site yesterday and being the big bonus, rakeback, whore that I've become
obviously the site looks pretty impressive.

I have not signed up yet as I'm moving around some fund to my neteller acct but
yesterday I emailed GG support with a question and they never got back to me.

The question had to do with the VFP program.  It's a sweet program however what
about NL play.  When you play 1/2nl the pots get as big as say a 3/6 limit game
(so the rake is close on both) but if you only got $6 per hour at the 1/2nl game
vs $9 at the 3/6 game what is the incentive to play NL?  Do they have a
different scale for NL?

I know it's not your job to know everything but I know you play there and all so
I was wondering about that.  Thanks man,

Marcstar

Hi Marcstar,

I don't play NL ring games myself, so I never thought to ask this
question. I sought clarification with the GamesGrid people...

The VFP is paid at three small bets per hour for NL games as well. So if
you are playing 1/2 NL, the pay would be $6 as you guessed. That may not
be the answer you were hoping for, but you have to admit that it is still
a pretty sweet deal. If nothing else, it means you get to sit at the
table for free for two full rounds every hour. And if those two full
rounds have raked pots in them, you are earning bonus just for beaing
dealt your cards. They are basically paying you to earn your bonus. How
cool is that? And seriously, who else does that for you?

Anyway, I'm glad to hear you are giving GamesGrid Poker a closer look. I
know you will be very pleased with the site once you start playing there.

You've obviously read some of my posts already, but I've still got to say
it... please remember to enter "ScotchRox" in the "Referrer's nickname or
promotional code" box at sign-up. Thanks!

Cheers,
Brian "ScotchRox" Peterson

Tell me about your little kick back deal you are offering players again. Feel
free to email me if you want. I remember you saying about sending your players
back 25% of the money you earn off our play. About how much would you expect
that to be? Feel free to make some assumptions based on 10 hours a week at 3/6
limit.
