Finally i reached GOLD member at PKR, what means i payed $5,000 in rake at PKR. So i think PKR is very happy.....
Guess not
So what did i get as a GOLD member?
- Ticket too PKR open worth $24. - Increase deposit limits. - Special newsletter every month. - Phase3 sit n go ticket worth $27. - 3 Tickets too 10K freeroll worth $5 each.
So my question is which online poker room has the best rewarding system for someone who payed $5000 in rake? I've never raked such amount and don't know which has the best deal for us for that amount.

But if you have saved all your PKR points, you can buy some nice merchandise. You could get a poker chip set and a golf umbrella or 5 PKR hoodies! So you would get about $100 more in items.

I find Vc poker to be one of the best for fpp, they are so easy to accumilate. Also titan offer cash for your points and they give you free points at the end of each month, which is nice

PKR sucks big time for rewards, they even charge you more to play there too, no way on earth am i paying 10% on ring games. It is a great fun site, but not good for a long term player. Gl with them tickets doomdy... I dont get, 3 Tickets too 10K freeroll worth $5 each. ??

ive always been pretty happy with the reward system at PKR to be honest. you dont only get something when you reach gold member level. you already get some stuff at silver, bronze and standard (in addition to what you receive for reaching gold status). plus the bonus points etc.
the rake is lower then at full tilt for the 1$ SNGs (10 cent instead of 25) (ipoker takes 20 cent here i think)
dunno.
im not generating too much rake, but i always felt PKR is giving much more back to me then others. (especially full tilt is not having too much love for their european players IMO)
EDIT: one should mention also that you regularly get promotional offers at PKR, regarding what member level you have. at least me as standard member there gets regularly prize-draws, freerolls, qualifiers etc. sometimes just free stuff or a chunky reload offer or competition. i always figured these offers would improve when you reach gold status?

maybe this is to keep your expectations for reaching diamondlevel low

JUst think doomdy if you move to anouther site and get the same rakeback deals etc then you will save yourself a lot on the rake, so if you manage to half you rake (im sure you can PKR very expensive) than thet 5k you spent becomes 2.5k.
