Message: [QUOTE="Poker Orifice, post: 5922310, member: 33113"] Okay so what I'm discovering is... the 'bonus' is money that was transferred to me via player-to-player. I had no clue that I'd need to rake a ton of $$'s to clear it... basically making it nobody's money until I play a TON! I have $158 'bonus' in my account. If I'm not mistaken I need to earn 1 pt. for each $1 in my 'bonus' in order to clear it. $1 rake = 2pts. So at an average rake of 10% in tourneys... I am needing to play ~$800 in tourneys before that money is mine. Obviously I wish I knew this prior to accepting a p2p transfer on 888Poker site. I mean it makes no sense for me at all. I could just have easily deposited from a credit card and then wouldn't need to rake a single dollar. I rarely play tournaments on 888Poker & any cash game volume is micro stakes & minimal. It is going to take me a veryyyy longggg time to clear that transferred money (errr.. ahem 'bonus' :confused: ). Another problem I have with this is actually keeping track of how much rake (pts.) I'm actually acquiring. I cannot see any indicator/ marker of my 'pts.' aside from the ones listed in 888 Club poker.... but those pts. are 100pts. = $1 rake and are displayed in increments of 400, 500, 800, etc., at a time. I don't see any tally of those pts. added up together so that I can follow my progress of how many pts. I'm acquiring so that I can even follow my total rake on the site. What is intended for me.. 'the customer'. Do I just blindly play... continue to very slowly plug away at my 'bonus', not even ever seeing it change or get smaller (it actually seems to get bigger.... what the heck is that?) and no way to keep track of what my TOTAL PTS. are. ALL of the other sites I play on have this stuff written out very clearly. They don't have two different types of pts. that are valued differently (ie. player pts., club pts. like on 888) and there's a VERY CLEAR way of keeping track of them on other sites. Pokerstars, Partypoker, GGPoker, BlackChip Poker, ACR, ... even Titan Poker. On all of those sites I can look at a number or a progress bar with a number and it is very simple. Can I do this on 888? Is there a way I can actually view my player pts.? Because I cannot find it :confused: [/QUOTE]
