Look, everyone keeps hyping up these VIP programs like they’re the golden ticket to poker riches. I’ve been deep into this grind, and I’m telling you—most of the perks are just shiny distractions. Exclusive tournaments? Half the time they’re filled with sharks anyway. Higher rakeback? Sure, if you’re playing 24/7, maybe it’s worth it, but for the average player, it’s barely a dent. The real edge is still in your game, not some fancy status. Prove me wrong if you can.
