I know one player on stars that I've only ever really seen him play on 200NL Full that made Supernova Elite.

If he makes 2-3 bb/100 plus the FPP rakeback, and all the VPP milestone bonuses it could add up. If you make it to Supernova Elite, you would get, 21.5k in milestone bonuses. Entry to the $2500 WCOOP main event, entry to two live events. If you pick the packages worth the most, the Monte Carlo EPT Main Event, and WSOP ME....those two packages are worth roughly 31k. Also assume that you were getting FPPs at 3.5x (Supernova rate - for the entire year), that's 3.5 Mill Fpps = roughly 56.4k if you use concierge service or 52.5k if you get cash bonuses.

Assuming you were just a break even player for the entire year. Just getting SNE is worth roughly 107.5k to 111.4k/year - about 75k of that would be strictly cash. Of course you would have had to pay about an enormous amount of rake and put in a ridiculous amount of table hours to achieve that.

I'm not suggesting that this is the best way for people to make money. Most people would go insane before they can grind it out like this.

All these numbers are for making SNE last year. There has been a few changes this year that actually gives players better options / more money.
