The Merge Network has super

The Merge Network has super turbos starting at the 2+.10, 4+.15, 8+.20 and 15+.30. Blackchip has either 35% rakeback or the VIP program. For every dollar in rake you earn 10 points, but if you are on rakeback it is 6.5 points for every dollar. the bonus is earned at $1/75 points so to clear the bonus in full you would need 56,250 points.  This translates into 5,625 rake paid on the VIP program which is 13.33% back.You can get a membership if you rake $125 per month ( net I beleive - Ryan will confirm)If you are currently playing on Pokerstars ( guessing since you quoted the $7 hypers) you will find that the number of games played per hour will drop due traffic and the software.  The time between accepting a rematch and the next game beginning it maybe 3 to 4 times longer on Merge. Depending what time you play you could be waiting a few minutes for opponents. Last night I was playing the 4's and had time to make a coffee and take a leak before someone sat me.The player pool in my opinion is a little easier to get reads of off since it is a little more homogeneous than stars. ( most of the players are TAGs)So if you are a bronze star ( approx 12% rakeback) the comparison for the 7's and 8.20's on Merge are:Stars - 2.19% before rakeback 1.93% after rakebackMerge - 2.5% before rakeback 1.63% after rakeback ( assuming only 35% rakeback, higher with bonus, reload bonus and using points to enter tournamnents)

Membership deals are $125 in

Membership deals are $125 in rake during any month for a free 1 month standard membership and $250 in rake for a free 1 month premium.Note: You have to create your account through our vip.husng.com page.Let me know if there are any questions. The run down on games was excellent above.

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28/internet-poker/official-blackchip-poker-thread-1200777/index60.htmlThe BlackChip Rep posted this in their thread on 2+2As a rakeback player you earn 6.5 VIP Points per $1 of rake, and the first deposit bonus clears at $5 each time you earn 375 VIP Points - it works out to about 8.3% clearance rate for rakeback players.
