The Players Club – January 2012

Postby The Fox » Sat Jul 31, 2010 9:33 am

As of January 1st 2012 we have re-launched the Players Club reward scheme. This takes into account the rules and regulations applied by our Online partners, their Network T&C’s and allows us to be flexible enough to make any amendments required to accommodate changes that may take place in the future. Members who join the Players Club will still enjoy the benefit of the Download Bonus but will opt out of any other Genting reward scheme and enjoy all the benefits of The Players Club from AWOP.

Originally the intent was to create a community based Members Club which rewarded its members for supporting AWOP and at the same time generate financial support to help finance the activities and services undertaken by AWOP and The Nutz TV. As you are aware, we have been running Player Reward Point free rolls in the past. This was to allow us the opportunity to evolve the administration required to support this new initiative. That proved to be far more difficult than anticipated. However with the expert help of Dave "No Cash" Garden he has helped us to create a reporting system which will now provide our Members with an automated monthly report providing full details to all Player Club Members of their benefits generated in that period.

The initiative has three fundamental elements at its core. First, it gives us the ability to reward our Members on a multiple number of fronts. Secondly, it is based on Sponsorship, which has always been at the core of AWOP’s activities. Thirdly, this new initiative will provide a reward scheme more in tune with grassroot players with instant rewards from day one. With the total focus now on our main partner Genting who are the major providers of land based casinos in the country, AWOP will now have a direct on-line association with them through The Players Club. This will offer up immense possibilities for AWOP and our Members in the months ahead. Even more so now with the inroduction of The Genting Poker Series in 2012.
AWOP will allocate a % of its net income from all sources to Sponsoring the Members of the Players Club on a monthly basis. The theory is the more Members who join in and play the bigger the level of sponsorship AWOP will invest!!!!!

More important to all our Members is that we have implemented two MAJOR changes for 2012. First we have reduced the band Levels ro allow our Members to earn even more PCP's ( Player Club Points ) For full details of the new Levels click this link :- . Secondly we have reduced the initial buy-in kevel for Sponsorship from £50 to £30 to enable more of our Members to enjoy the benefits of Sponsorship.

So how do you earn reward points?

Enter our weekly ADDED VALUE Player Point Tournaments and earn player points.
Earn points by playing AWOP Tournaments Online.
Play online on Genting Poker at any level and the more you play, the more Points you earn.
Watch out for special promotions introduced for Player Club members in the months ahead.

And how do I use them?

AWOP will Sponsor their Members using your Player Points to enter any Live Event of your choice in the UK.
Terms and conditions apply:- Basically all Members will play on an 80/20% basis in the players favour. (Full T&C’s are available to all Members on request ).
The minimum event you can play will has been reduced to £30 buy in, so you would be required to collect 3300 Player Points to play an event, members will be entered in to Freeze-Outs only. Sounds like a lot... but not when you consider AWOP will give away a minimum of 20,000 player points every month. Add to that other opportunities to earn Points and it all adds up and at the same time you are supporting AWOP and helping to finance all of its activities by taking part.

Each Member has the option to use their Player Points to play an event of THEIR choice or build their player points to play major events of their choice.
For those Members who have been playing with us, you will already have a head start as you will have accumulated Player Points in the past. All Members will receive an e mail in the next few weeks about your current standing and your personal level within the Player Point Reward Scheme. If you have any questions just PM The Cub through the Forum or e mail [email protected]

Genting Poker:- Over the past two years Genting have become a major player in the Online Poker market with a very aggressive promotional approach. Owning the largest estate of Live Casinos in the UK has enabled them to introduce Live poker into their estate and with the introduction this year of The Genting Poker Series the excitement continues as they develop their strategy for Poker into their UK Casino empire. Major investment in both their Online and Live activities continues and AWOP are delighted to partner such a high profile operation. We ask our Members to support AWOP in this partnership with genting.

In addition The Cub has introduced a new automated reporting system...see his full poat below :-

Firstly I wanted to run a couple of things past Dave before I posted this but he's unavailable atm. Below is the general outline for the content of the reporting system but as I haven't spoken to Dave yet it will be subject to change if the alterations I've made can't be done.

Well after an inordinate amount of work by Dave"No Cash"Garden I am delighted to say that we are almost there. Dave has spent a lot of his spare time preparing an automated system that would allow us to update the members of The Players Club on a monthly basis of their Live Fund balance. When we started TPC I lured myself into a false sense of ability, keeping track of the points is the easy bit...Keeping track of the points from 5 different sources was the hard part and to be fair the club grew quicker than we were expecting and before long I was struggling and spending far too much time updating the systems, converting $ into £ then working out %'s

What Dave has done is combined all that data into a manageable spread sheet(well manageable to him lol) which enables us to send an email to each and every member of the club with the press of a button. This has involved me consolidating all the points from games that have been won in the past into 1 column as now the Club will operate solely on Genting Poker. This was only sent through to Dave earlier this week so he has yet to input that data. Once this has been done we will be sending out a report to each and every one of TPC members which will be a 2011 year end report. This will tell you exactly how many points you have, your gross play and the amount of points you have been awarded from games. As well as your month end report the e mail will also act as a Newsletter keeping you informed of what is happening within The Players Club on a month to month basis.

2012 is going to be slightly different, in our opinion the Banding that we applied since conception was a bit steep as it was in £'s...Here is a table showing both the old and new Bandings;-



Starting 1st January that has changed and become a lot more achievable, I think you'll all agree there :D :D :D

Below is a test report that Dave has sent me, I have amended it slightly as I forgot to mention to Dave about the new Banding. . The only other thing that will change on this report is...Inside the box you'll see "Gross Rake" in £'s at the moment, this will be in $$$ so as you can see how much play you generated in that month and can compare it to the next banding and higher % returned into your Live Fund. Everything else will be the same.

Image

I think you'll agree with me in saying it's pretty impressive, this will be the start of the end of all the waiting for me to do my sums and eventually get back to you. I added some Free roll points in there just to give you an example of where they will show up, if you do not win any on that particular month they will not show up so the Points won during the game on 1st Jan will not appear until your January statement at the beginning of Feb. Hope that makes sense :? :D

The other big change to the club is regarding the minimum Live Buy-in. Beforehand it was a min of £50 comp, From 1st Jan 2012 that has been dropped to £30 + reg fee so players can play a wider variety of games. Unfortunately rebuys and re-entries are still exempt.

Keep your eyes peeled for the 1st Promotion of 2012 which will run throughout Feb. It will be announced shortly and I for one am very excited about 2012.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Dave from each and every one of us(me especially). I have an idea how much work has gone into this pal and I am very grateful, we all are.

Many thanks Dave.

We would appreciate your feedback regarding the Reporting system and will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Hi emery...no news at the moment...our T&C's have been changed rather dramatically over the past months which makes it very difficult to come up with a programme that actually works...however we will keep trying..
