That's just sick, Rakeback sucks too. because it isnt on party poker. If party had a 10% I'd devote my life to grinding out 2000 hands a day.

By the way, the rake isn't killing me, I still maintain 2BB/100 hands, thats all I need, I'm fine with those results, TRUST ME.
Have you ever used pokertracker before?
It shouldnt be shocking.
At low stakes hold em, it accounts for between 2 and 2.5BB/100.
I'd say it is killing you. Or at least raping you.
I maintain slightly better than 2BB/100 and get the equivalent of between 105-110% rakeback. Which means i effectively win about 4.5BB/100.
The notion that party games are MUCH easier is a myth. My winrate dropped about .5BB/100 when making the transition to absolute. It's been well worth my while to switch.

How do you get that on Absolute? Are there special bonuses?

If I remember correctly, it is a combination of bonuses, rakeback and player points.
Abba wrote it in several other posts. I'll try to dig one up.
edit: Found one!
