Rakeback

Hello Card Chat

Ive been lurking for awhile reading everything of intrest to me and I finally have a question.

Per addvice I saw on here I applied for rakeback w/ rakeback pros and was granted the service.

I understand that my ftp's are now worthless but what about my iron man medals? and exactly what limitations are being put on my ftp's?

Im a new player with online poker so if my questions seem silly please try and take it easy on me.

FTPs were always useless, not sure about the medals, might have been a tiny bit useful, but neither of those things come even close to rakeback.

FTPs aren't worthless, but when you spend them itll cost $0.005 per point against your rakeback. So if you paid $100 in rake you'd be getting $27 back (minus various other things) if you then spent 1000 points you would only get $22

FTPs aren't worthless, but when you spend them itll cost 1/2 cent per ftp, i believe, against your rakeback.

well Im a ring game player no sng's or mtt so rakeback will be way more bennicial to me than a hat or a mousepad or some stupid advertisement thing I wouldnt use anyways.

Thanks for the input

Yes, they count .005 per point, which is a half cent.

Does entering freerolls effect your rakeback as well?
