Which deal do you like better from Carbon? Getting 35% rakeback with slower VIP points and no point-trading, or the original deal you had? I would like rakeback from carbon, but since they seemed to take away other promotions from you, do you think it is worth it??

I think it depends on what stakes you are playing with your initial bankroll. VIP points come pretty slow playing micro stakes without mass volume, so I personally like the 35% rakeback more. If you have a sufficient roll you can afford to play higher limits and get points much faster which makes the milestones easier to reach. That is just my opinion on it. I haven't took a hard look at which VIP statuses are realistically able to achieve at micro stakes, but I think the rakeback is more profitable if you are starting with a very limited bankroll or none at all (free rolls ftw.)
