I recently (3month) start to play RC PLO and have played over 100k hands, but they still reward me with Holdem chips for freeroll. Also as you can see Holdem value is 0.5$ per player (35kplayer-20k giveaway) , but in Short Deck value is 10$ per player (500players- 5k giveaway), or in Plo is 1.5$ (10k players- 15k giveaway.

Do you think Holdem player suck at this promo?

you have a daiy freeroll with 34,000 players but when you had time, you can play with a good chance to ITM ranks, as blinds are not raising so fast.
On Saturday I got rank 44 with about 18 CashDollars - not bad.
The rest is the same with the 25 cent tickets to the daily freebie :)

I think the bonuses/'gifts' are lame. I'm sure it's set up to try to get people logging in and playing in a bunch of other games while playing in the lame freeroll. OR to get them playing a different type of game they wouldn't normally be playing (ie. MysteryBattle).

Well, it's a voluntary and nice thing from GG. As just a Hold'em player, I don't feel disadvantaged. But that means your chances aren't so bad to cash well if you're good at PLO.

Its a 25 cent spin ticket for me daily (instead of every second day a battle royale ticket like with the daily freebie) and a freeroll ticket.

Cashed already 3 times in that freeroll which is pretty comfortable to play with 5 minutes levels and late reg of 45 minutes. Always late regged last minute.

Its known that those rewards are bound on past gameplay and since i dont play there too much i doubt i can reall complain about it. Its ok imo.

Um. Do you rake anything at GG ? No ?
So no reason or wonder that you don't get more 😅

I always get two 25c Spin&gold/mystery bounty tickets
Cash Dollar between 50c- 2$
Plus a a 1-2$ Mtt ticket

Goddamn all those greedy people.

Not paying rake only freerolling and always hunting the big lottery wins, wow.

Be grateful for the things given to you for free, even if they are small gifts.

Other rooms don´t offer such things, due to regulations or other reasons.

It also works with just playing microstake Mtts on a regular basis like I do :)

If I were playing higher stakes the gift boxes increase in value too
But I am fine with my micro level gifts:D

I think gg is good at these giveaways. Not every site does that.

a good player manages to make a profit from scratch without depositing anything there.

I see it like most people here and also how does such a nice saying “You don't look in the mouth of a gift horse”
So in that sense

I have been really enjoying the GG Poker Christmas promo so far! Honestly, it feels like a nice upgrade compared to their usual daily freerolls. Out of the five freerolls I have played, I managed to make it into the money twice, which isnt too bad at all. What I’ve noticed is that getting in the money is a lot easier if you are patient and dont rush your plays. Its all about staying calm, playing smart and letting others make mistakes, most of them just go all in with donk hands :LOL:. Plus, with the cash I won, I was able to try out a Spin & Gold and actually hit a 5 euro win! Its been a great way to keep things fun and even build up a little bankroll without having to risk much. Definitely looking forward to seeing what else they have in store for the rest of the promo!

It was not voluntary, rake and fee was reduced during that period.

rake and fee was reduced. Fee 50%, for rake i dont know because of PVI program. But my question is why i receive tickets for holdem instead of plo, because i change game 3mounth ago.

WPT Global did, if you deposit 50$ you receive 50$ during 30days period in tickets or casino cash.

My question was i receive Holdem chips instead of PLO, because i switch game 3moth ago. About rake i have payed more than 600$+ durring year but i dont know how much exactly because of PVI
