Sooooooo with that said, it looks like I'm finally getting rakeback! I actually gave up on that and just last night was like hey I'm going to just say f-it and play on FTP anyway :).

No I didn't do anything.... kind of sucks though I just accepted the promotion and this is what it states:


Your Cash Back Bonus period runs from 00:00 ET on 5 November, 2010 to 23:59 ET on 2 December, 2010 .

You will be able to keep track of your earnings here once your Cash Back Bonus period has begun.

Your current bonus period is due to expire at 23:59ET on 2 December, 2010. To extend your bonus, earn 1000 Full Tilt Points before your current bonus period expires and your bonus period will be extended to 30 December, 2010.


So now I don't know what it is for sure...

Well 1 good thing is that 1K points in a month is nothing so you should be able to extend it through the end of the year at least. Maybe it will be a perpetual thing where you need to keep getting 1k points to keep the bonus rolling?

Do you already have rakeback with another provider?

Yeah that is what I am thinking. You can get your rakeback every time and it gets extended if you get 1000k points? I guess we will find out!! Now I'm debating what I want to do because my plan was to start drinking out some SnG's.... but I'm not sure yet.

No I'm affiliated with a non-rakeback affiliate.... At one point or another I had been e-mailing FTP almost every week complaining about it.....

I'd def. email FTP and ask about it going forward beyond the end of the year. I know they have been saying they were looking for something to give back to those with a non-rb affiliate so I guess maybe this is it or at least a test for something that could be it.

I got this tonight too. Unfortunately I accepted it and have the same timeframe that you do - only I have to earn 2000 points in order to keep it.

I could normally do that - but it is not likely this month since I will be in Vegas for 10 days. :(

Cash games!!!

I guess they did the number of points based on the level you normally play because several on 2+2 had up to 4K / month.

Yea - that is probably what I averaged the 2 months I played there full time. Unfortunately it was quite a grind to get that many for me - and losing 10 days will kill me.

The timing is such a shame lol. I sooooooooooo could have done this after Vegas.

Well I know that FT is always trying to help out it's players, but the rakeback that I have pays weather you play a lot or a little. If you only make $.40 of your rake they pay it to your Fulltilt account on Friday. I don't see rakeback as an incentive if you have to make 1000 FTP's eack month to get it. JMHO

It is not rakeback. It is a cash bonus that is the equivalent of rakeback.

Well you do have 1 thing in your favor, points accrue faster now. It's now 10/$1 in tourney fees instead of 7. So you got that goin' for you which is nice.

Got this today from Full Tilt. Is it the same as rakeback?

I want to know if this is worth messing with. Of course the "equal to 27%" part is as good as rakeback, but am I losing much by not getting rake races and such?

Here's the email...

I think it depends on the volume. I'm currently multitabling 6max 25nl with roughly 300FTP earned a day, and I'm still nowhere near rakebackpros' standings.

It is not rakeback. It is a cash bonus that is the equivalent of rakeback.

Do you have to clear the bonus or is it straight cash?

If it's cash then this is effectively FTP giving you rakeback - it's exactly the same thing :)

Yea - was surprised to see I got 60 points for playing 6 $11 sng's - so played 12 more and have 180 points so far. If I can not get killed by the $11's I might be able to do this.

If it's cash then this is effectively FTP giving you rakeback - it's exactly the same thing :)

It is straight cash paid once a week - with the exact same deductions as rakeback. So yea it is essentially identical to getting rakeback.
