Well after all the announced GG reward system rewards are very close to 3 times less, than announced in connection with close to 3 times less rake counted, because of the PVI system!
This is very close to how to plan your status with expected 0.3-0.35 PVI!
Apply for cash games!

Hi stoeppy,
Welcome to PokerStrategy.com English community forum!
Click the chat button on the table (red circle)

The chat window should pop up.
If anyone chats in a language you don't read, then you can click the translate button shown by the red circle.

All the best,

Hello! So I am now playing through my bonus, however I do not get any credits when an increment is released (It doesnt show up in the balance history and I did not see any $5 credits added to my bankroll). As per the Bonus Info, I should have already released a total of $60.

Does the "Smart HUD" actually works properly?
How would you tell, without taking the trouble to download your hand history and checking your own smart hud display with your actual stats.
I just treat it as just one more piece of information, but you can't base all your decisions on it -- especially considering that it is almost always a very small sample size.
Some might argue that due to the small sample size it isn't worth much at all.
I saw a villain with 3000 hands played and 100 % win precentage, so can't take it seriously after that..
LOL, the discussion is ridiculous, the PVI is what makes the game unfair (and villains able to play 24 hours). If you play at GG and haven't understood how PVI works you should strongly consider quitting poker.

If I understand correctly, the win percentage is only for hands in which both you and that opponent were involved.
If not, please provide a link that explains it.

The above applies that you know how PVI works.
Kindly provide us with the link to the source of your knowledge, since even GGPoker claims that the PVI algorithm is a network-controlled measurement.
If you can document players that are sitting at the same table for 24 hours, kindly provide their usernames to help@ggpoker.com
Mind you, in order to gather that evidence, you would need to be logged on for 24 hours (at least) and the GGPoker client closes itself if left idle.
It's easy to understand how PVI affects. But only very few people in this planet knows the algorithm how it is calculated.
Im new on GG, nl2 rush, 1 guy playing there like an absolute scrub, but literally 24/7.
Im not kidding, 6am playing, 1pm playing, 8pm playing, 3 am playing.
I have sleep disorder, so i end up playing every part of the day a bit, and some ppl are always there.
Playing 40-60vpip, minraiseing everything, and even if you start to exploit them, they still refuse to adjust. Which is kinda weird imo.
13-16000 points.
Hi enve,
Please report the player's name to help@ggpoker.com
Posting this here cannot help, since no-one can do much about it, and even if the GGPoker Rep sees it, nothing can be done without the player's user name.
Please don't post the player's user name here, since, if you are wrong, the accusation is slander.
All the best,
VS

The Win % is based on the percentage number of hands they player has won on this specific table.
The Hand counter is the number of hands the player has played on this specific table.
I saw few players minbetting evry pot, and folding vs any action, it looks like bots or no lifers who play to win daily rake chase.

real people just racking up points i'm actually surprised given all the new regulations in poker recently that these types of 24 hour leaderboards are promoted so heavily given the obvious health risks it could cause.My personal opinion is that they shouldn't be so top heavy for the payouts so people don't have to grind for 24 hours a day for first place.

Considering that most rooms have prominent links to "responsible gaming" sites -- for example GGPoker links to begambleaware it is surprising that volume-based promotions still exist. Clearly it is a contradiction.
Some jurisdictions no longer permit rake races or other volume-based promotions for the simple reason that they encourage excessive play.
One of the things I liked about PokerStrategy.com right from the start is that they promote responsible play in the form of bankroll management, stop-loss and other techniques to limit excess play
At 200NL, rake is 5%, 3bb cap.
But how much is preflop rake on 3Bet pots please? I couldn't find this information anywhere.
