Ongame introduces new Points Scheme
The Ongame Network, home of sites such as EuroBet Poker, RedKings Poker, Tower Gaming and Betsafe Poker, has changed the way cash game players earn points and progress through the VIP program. The new scheme will give more value to less skilled players by awarding more Player Points; skilled players will now earn fewer Player Points.
Ongame hopes that the new scheme will improve the quality of games and have a positive effect on all players. For those that play against inferior opponents, Ongame believes that the extra money you will be making through worse players at the tables will more than make up the difference of earning less in rewards.
All things being equal, points will still be earned at a rate of 3.25 Player Points per $1 of rake contribution, but will be tweaked based on your skill level versus your opponents. Generally speaking, a winning player will earn fewer points when playing against poor opponents. On the flip side, a poor player who is playing against better opponents will be earning more points under the new scheme. Unfortunately, due to the complex formula and not knowing your skill level versus your opponents –- it will be different at every table -- we are now unable to provide specific figures to the value of bonuses and/or VIP reward scheme at Ongame sites.
At Multi-Table Tournaments and SNGs, players will not be affected. Players will still earn 5 Player Points per $1 in fees with no adjustment based on your competition.
