Looks like Take 2 promo but aimed at Rush poker:

http://p.fulltiltpoker.com/rush-week

Seven Days of Speed at Full Tilt Poker

Experience the blistering pace and intensity of Rush Poker*, the world’s fastest poker game, to earn up to $250 in cash and win free entry to an exclusive $50K Rush Week Freeroll.
Running from Monday, July 12th to Sunday, July 18th, Rush Week offers even more reasons to play Rush Poker*. Accumulate enough Full Tilt Points by playing Rush Poker* ring games and tournaments during Rush Week and you could earn up to $250 in cash. In addition, all Rush Poker* Tournament final table players will receive entry into the exclusive$50K Rush Week Freeroll.
Many of our guarantee tournaments will be converted to Rush Poker* Tournaments for the duration of Rush Week, culminating with the $1 Million Monthly Guarantee.
Earn up to $250

Playing Rush Poker* is the fastest way to earn Full Tilt Points – the more you play during Rush Week, the more you’ll earn. Accumulate enough points from Rush Poker* ring games and tournaments on at least four days to earn your cash reward. Reach your reward level on all seven days to double your cash.
There are three Rush Week reward levels – strike Gold for your $250 payday:
Bronze (10 Full Tilt Points)
  • Earn at least 10 Full Tilt Points per day on any four days to receive $5
  • Earn at least 10 Full Tilt Points per day on all seven days to receive $10
Silver (100 Full Tilt Points):
  • Earn at least 100 Full Tilt Points per day on any four days to receive $25
  • Earn at least 100 Full Tilt Points per day on all seven days to receive $50
Gold (1,000 Full Tilt Points):
  • Earn at least 1,000 Full Tilt Points per day on any four days to receive $125
  • Earn at least 1,000 Full Tilt Points per day on all seven days to receive $250
If you achieve more than one of these reward levels, you will receive your highest possible cash amount only – the rewards are not cumulative.
For example, if you earn Bronze level on all seven days, and reach Silver on four of those days, you will receive a $25 Silver reward only – this amount is higher than either of the Bronze rewards. Likewise, earn 1,000 Full Tilt Points on all seven days and you’ll receive a $250 Gold reward only.
For more information on Rush Week rewards, please see the Rush Week Rules.
$50K Rush Week Freeroll

Win your seat to the exclusive $50K Rush Week Freeroll at 15:15 ET on Sunday, July 25th, by reaching the final table in a Rush Poker* Tournament during Rush Week.

I have never been much of a rush poker fan, but I may have to give some of their converted tournaments a shot... who knows maybe it will be my new niche :)

Oh and thanks for letting us know about the promo!

I seem to lose at rush poker whereas I win at normal poker... I wonder whether this promo is worth me playing rush... I'm tempted but not tempted enough.

Check under Tournaments and look for The letter R to the left of the Tourney

Yes. At least the ones I have seen are...and they do have a big R next to them. Pretty sure they are all colored red.

ftp makes money from rake, not from players losing money to other players, so how much you win or lose outside of rake doesn't really matter much to them

and it's a given that ftp is going to make more from rake than they're going to lose from the bonus-- they're essentially just giving us some % of the rake we pay back to us

This is a decent promo. Just wish there was a level between 100pts. and 1000pts.

Ill get 100 pts easy but 1000 is way over my BR unless I put in some really serious hours. Hmmm....

Max = 4 Rush tables right? Wil lemails get me more?

You can play more than 4 if you play different limits or game types, i.e., 4 100 FR and 4 100 6-max tables, or 4 100NL and 4 50NL tables. Your head might explode, but the software will allow it.

yeah, i don't recommend trying to mix limits/games to go above 4 rush tables at a time unless you're a multi-tabling wizard. very likely your play would deteriorate enough to cost you whatever profit you make from the bonus, if not more

it would be nice if they had a 500 pt per day level. the gap between 100 and 1000 is pretty large

Good Looking out! Im gonna try FASURE.

Im going into that week prepared. Its all about the focus man. Im gonna take down that $250 @ 10NL. + I work a full time job. More than full time. I have some days off beginning next week for the holiday, Im gonna try to get 1000pts. to see if I think I can even do it. Even if I can stay at or just above Break-even my rakeback will be through the roof.

But if I can get that + my Iron man bonus... Im movin' on Up !

Boo.

I think 1000 points is around 4.5 hours of 25NL, 4 tabling :)

Yea, I will be going for bronze level, only 10 points a day for $5 or $10. I have a bonus that I have to clear at another poker site, before it expires, so I can't put in the time at FullTilt that I'd like to. I don't think I could hit the 100 points in a day. Just not me at my current level. Let's make some money.
Got my 200 points from FullTilt for taking their survey which asked a lot of questions about the Take 2 promo. Oh, yeah. That's almost enough for a Daily Dollar entry.

I'm gonna give gold a go. All I play atm is Rush 10nl, only 2 tables though, normally get around 100-150 points a session so it's going to be a big step up. But imo it's worth it for $250.

That would pretty much roll me for 25nl and hopefully I wont go broke in the process lol.

GL to all
