“Contributed rake system (27th of November)

Rake system:
Current “Shared” rake system
Players at the table who gets dealt cards divide the rake.
Example:
€1/2 No Limit Texas, 6 players get dealt cards. The pot ends at €83, €3 in rake.
All players have put €3/6 = €0.50 in rake each.
New “Contributed” rake system
Players who have put money into the pot get their contributed part of the rake.
Example:
€1/2 No Limit Texas, 6 players get dealt cards. Player A puts €1 in the pot,
player B puts €2 in the pot, player C puts €40 in the pot and
player D puts €40 in the pot. Final pot is €83 and €3 in rake.
Player A €1/€83 = 1.2% of the pot = €0.036 in rake
Player B €2/€83 = 2.4% of the pot = €0.072 in rake
Player C €40/€83 = 48.19% of the pot = €1,446 in rake
Player D €40/€83 = 48.19% of the pot = €1,446 in rake
Player E €0/83 = 0% of the pot = €0 in rake
Player F €0/83 = 0% of the pot = €0 in rake
VIP-points:
Current VIP-point distribution
All players that got dealt cards in a pot that raked €0.31 or more receives
one VIP-point. The maximum amount of VIP-points per player and pot is 1.
New VIP-point distribution
Players get 1 VIP-point for each €0.40 the player has raked. VIP-points will be awarded in fractions, but only visible in integer. The maximum amount of
VIP-points per player and pot is 3,75.
Example:
€1/2 No Limit Texas, 6 players get dealt cards. Player A puts €1 in the pot, player B puts €2 in the pot, player C puts €40 in the pot and player D puts €40 in the pot.
Final pot is €83 and €3 in rake.
Player A €1/€83 = 1.2% of the pot = €0.036 in rake = 0.09 VIP Points
Player B €2/€83 = 2.4% of the pot = €0.072 in rake = 0.18 VIP Points
Player C €40/€83 = 48.19% of the pot = €1,446 in rake = 3.62 VIP Points
Player D €40/€83 = 48.19% of the pot = €1,446 in rake = 3.62 VIP Points
Player E €0/83 = 0% of the pot = €0 in rake = 0 VIP Points
Player F €0/83 = 0% of the pot = €0 in rake = 0 VIP Points
Cash Back low:
4Kings.com will remove the old VIP Cash Back low and only offer
VIP Cash Back GOLD. Players need to sign up for VIP Cash Back Gold.
Cardroom2 VIP Cash Back separated:
Today players earn VIP-points on both 24hNetwork and Cardroom2, but there is no visible difference between the VIP-points. This is very confusing for a player when trying to figure out which level he has reached in the VIP Cash Back GOLD. The possibility to earn VIP-points in Cardroom2 will be removed. Cardroom2 will instead have a separate Cash Back program with the following pay out structure:
€50-€499 in rake 20% in Cash Back
€500 or more in rake 30% in Cash Back
