What are VIP Points and how can I use them?
TrickyPlay uses the weighted rake system. One VIP point is rewarded for each € 0.50, which has been contributed in rake. The player who uses money, has brought money into the pot. The number of VIP-points, which is awarded to the player per hand is based on the player's contribution into the pot. If Rake Contribution of the player is less than € 0.50, then the player is assigned VIP-points in part. A player can earn up to 3 VIP-points per hand. The players that do not contribute any money into the pot to get any VIP-points.
Example:

Player C bets € 40 into the pot
The Player D bets € 40 into the pot
The Player E folds
The Player F folds
The total pot of this hand is € 83 and the rake is € 3
