  1. from the Q & A about uk migration Will my VIP Club rewards be affected? A. VIP Club rewards for PokerStars UK will be the same as on PokerStars.com for the remainder of 2014. Rewards will be reduced slightly for 2015; more information will be available at a later date. Q.Are there any tax implications that will affect me as a player? A. PokerStars, like all other operators, will be required to pay UK gaming tax at 15% from December 1. The impact of this cost may mean that we introduce some changes to our VIP programme (but only from 2015). This is currently being reviewed.
  2. so at what point is raking MTT rebuys and add ons for uk players (supposedly to pay for the increased tax for the regulation changes recently introduced ) acceptable when most other players are not raked on those rebuys. The rebuys and addons go to the prize pool not to stars income , and therefore are not taxed. So stars are stiffing UK players for extra rake on those rebuys/addons and this then incurs extra tax because that extra rake is now income and taxable. Is the 40% profit on all their income (rake) insufficient for Stars so that they have to take even more out of the poker econo
