thread for feedback re iPoker network ('new' PPP/VC etc)

luckylucky

jeez this network does need sorting out. I've just started playing my 1st multi here and lo and behold the multi-table lobby can't be moved, where it pops up it stays! Anyway hopefully the good sense of paddypower and gjp will be listened to by playtech.

From the GJP website

Green Joker Poker welcomes you to the most exciting ring games and tournaments online. Green Joker Poker now recognizes you, its loyal and dedicated poker player, by offering you the rewards and benefits of the exclusive Green Joker Poker VIP Club.

Players are assigned to a VIP Level based on their Point average over the past three months according to the following table:

VIP Level Monthly Point Average
Bronze New Players
Silver 2,000
Gold 5,000
Platinum 10,000
Titanium 20,000

I'm currently on the bronze level yet i've 24k JP points and have easily averaged more than this for the last 3 months?

Well i've just been looking at PPP's new VIP programme and in comparison to GJP, you have to meet a hell of a lot more requirements.

So far in my week or so playing i've clocked up about 7,500 (which is around 37,500 in the old Tribeca format) PPPs so far, but PPP's monthly averages are far steeper, any chance of lowering them down Karl or Pit Boss for the following month perhaps?

PRIVATE - Entry Level
LIEUTENANT - 2,250 (11,250 Tribeca APs)
CAPTAIN - 13,000 (65k Tribeca APs) ($50 CASHBACK)
MAJOR - 38,000 (190k Tribeca APs) ($200 CASHBACK)
GENERAL - 100,000 (500k Tribeca APs) ($600 CASHBACK)

Surely the LIEUTENANT could be lowered to 1,250 or 1,500.

CAPTAIN decreased to 10k, MAJOR lowered to 25k - 30k, and maybe another rank thrown in between MAJOR and GENERAL, somewhere around the 50k - 60k mark and maybe rewarding ($400 CASHBACK) ...then keep the GENERAL at around 100k offering the ($600 CASHBACK)

Sorry I couldn't remember my main suggestion.

I clicked the Cash in PPPs just out of interest in the "My Poker" section to see what it would offer. I had 39,000 I think and it offered me $39, which I was never accepting, as i'd prefer to dick about with it in freerolls or spend it in the P4P Shop first.

So I take it the cash in rate is $1 for every 1k PPPs (5k Tribeca APs) ...surely that's cutting it a bit fine. Is there no chance of looking at a $1 for every 350 - 600 PPPs. I know I don't ask for much, just looking out for the customer's best interest

You have to do this when you are not sat at a table.

Thanks Mike, sorted.

Me with my tinfoil hat on seems to think that all the old tribeca sites are trying to up their profits by all deliberately offering ridiculously low bonuses. maybe they were sick of all the bonus whores on the tribeca network but what they are publically offering now is a joke. From what i'm hearing and seeing of the bonuses anyone who is playing on the iPoker network would be mad to be playing without 'that thing that isn't available on the iPoker network'

OK, I must be stupid because even with the latest patches installed I can't import iPoker hands.

using the path "C:\Poker\Paddy Power Poker\History\mysn\Table" it gives me the following error message

"Setup incomplete. Click the 'Hand History Folder Location...' button to tell Poker Tracker where to look for the hand history files."

What am I missing? I have tried it at both the \mysn\ and \table\ levels too with no success.

Lafortezza

Have you checked that the hand histories are actually in that folder?
My HH folder doesn't have my username in the path.

They are there in .xml format, which I have to assume is the way iPoker stores them. It seems to have a different numbered file for each table, which is the session name apparently.

Imposter

I've only used the path as far as the sn and it works.

I think we need a new thread for Pokertracker and iPoker... seems like its worth its own topic.
