Does this mean double FPPs as well? Since ur getting 2 VPPs for every one would u also get 2 FPPs for every one?

hmmm . . . so will this then apply to FPP multipliers as well?

Like since I'm gold star, and I get 2 FPP's per VPP, will I now get 4? Can't see anything on the website about it.

obviously since you get more VPPs (say 3 instead of 1), you also get more FPPs since they are based on your VPPs



otherwise it would not be nearly as awesome

But at least I got 4 VPPs = 10 fpps instead of the typical 2 and 5 for that hand lol. Using the $650 bonus I didn't really lose $105.05 there, only lost $104.92 lol. Yes double vpps rawks.

Awesome! I'll have one whole day to take advantage of this, why do they have to make this happen exactly when I'm going away?

The SN/SNE are leaping for joy.

SNova ~ 7 FPP per 1

SNE ~ 10 FPP per 1

Imagine the amount of "Free" they are making, lol, yeah 10 fpps so so sick.
