In the first days of January, 2012, PokerStars [3] introduces the weighted contributed rake calculation in place of the old dealt method. Additional improvements are also scheduled for the first half of next year.
The cash game rake percentages will be rounded with the maximum rake being 4.5%.
PokerStars also changes VPP multipliers for the Euro currency cash game tables based on updated USD – EUR exchange rates:
Tournaments and ring games with 7 and fewer seats: 7x
Ring games with 8 or more seats: 8x
PL/NL €0.01/€0.02: 12x
PL/NL €0.02/€0.05: 10x
PL/NL €0.05/€0.10: 8.5x
Moreover, the room has announced several additional updates as well, including 6-handed and 9-handed hyper turbo S’n’Gs and a “fast moving ring games product,” according to the official statement released on 2p2. You can read more details here [6].
