Actually, this is not the way it works as there are some subtleties we did not mention previously. Let me clarify:
Under this new system you will not receive double the bonus pool for a win on the ladder; when you win you will still receive the same amount. However, the main difference is that you also get bonus poll now when you
lose games on the ladder. This doubles the spending rate as well.
The change doesn't make wins worth 33% more than before, but rather makes losses a bit less painful than before.
Hope that helps to clarify a bit.
