Piece of Ivey promotion is crap

I received 10 dollars from Full Tilt a few days ago for winning in one of the daily drawings, and what a load of crap they deducted it from my rakeback! Instead of getting my 25.77 they nerfed the shit out of it and sent me 15.77. This is crap in my opinion, what is the point of this promotion if I don't profit from it when I win?? So I have to pray now that if I do win its a 50 or 100 dollar score otherwise it will be of no use? Stupid!

Deducting it from your rakeback sounds like something Full Tilt would do. They were also the poker room that treated their affiliates like crap for years. I wouldn't be surprised if they still did. FTP seems to be more forum friendly nowadays, but I still have my doubts about them.

I bet it only hits your MGR for the full amount so it actually cost you $2.70 for winning that $10. So instead of $10 you actually won $7.30. Still free money.

Yeah - what Savage and WV said.

Free money = free money, it's not as if it cost you anything to enter the promotion or anything.

Well you have to look on the bright side bro... its not like Take 2... but you did get some money... so if you play in ring games anyway... its just an added bonus.... but if you were strictly playing for tickets then that is bullshit for you man.

Sorry and GL,

WOW

That is unreasonable. No points of that promotion then unless you hit big. I guess if you don't have rakeback then it would be good, but most players that do play cash games have rakeback. I have a lot of tickets and have not won anything. They probably would take it off my rakeback anyway, so no point. Full Tilt .......

Crazy!

So if you won $100 - wouldnt they just 'steal' your next 5 months rakeback??

I havent won anything with over 800 points, but not really too bothered after reading this!

So if you won the actual piece of Ivey (say $50k) then would that also be deducted from future rakeback??
(reckon it'd take me approx 250 years to repay that lol)

Hahaha this thread went all over the place.

No worries so anyways I won 10 dollars again, yes again. So sweet after they make their deductions I won $2.30.

By the way for all you have been wondering, I have 3800 tickets total for the month, I have had several 350+ ticket days. But funny enough the two days that I won I only had 77 tickets and 21 tickets, the two lowest for me of the month.

Something to think about.
