    I was trying to find out how much Negreanu's contract was worth with pokerstars. Anyone?
    Is his the best, what do you think the others are worth?

    IMO I don't think we'll ever know the true details of these agreements they come to with these sites. Do the sites pay for their losses? Do they make a salary? Is it one lump-sum payment? Who knows?

    The rake back and hourly rate are good...DN gets back approx 30bb/hr when playing fr nosebleeds.

    Best guess would have to be Phil Ivey. Daniel has never said he gets a rake back from stars. Even talked about having to buy into a tournament on his own this year.

    I'd bet Phil Helmuth Jr. has a very lucrative deal, but I think Joe Hachem has the best.

    I was quite happy with my deal (albeit short) with UltimateBet...And I'm a nobody..
    I'm sure the big names of poker are quite happy with their deals...

    Devin, please tell us if the UBET company folk, especially the customer service group, are actors acting like retards, or are they actually retarded.
