Logged on to fulltilt today to see there is a new 'The Added Bonus' available. Looks like I have 3 weeks to clear about 1100 FTP to get the full $50 which is going to be hard but not impossible to do for me.

Has anyone else received this bonus?

Mine's only for $20 and some $2 ring game tickets :eek:

Still I can't complain. I've never deposited so normally I miss out on these altogether.

I don't know whether to laugh or to cry...

On the one hand, I just found out I received a $300 (!) bonus (albeit, realistically I could probably clear only about half of it within a three-week period)...

On the other hand, Full Tilt, as of a few hours ago, suddenly decided I'm located in the USA (which I categorically am NOT... I've been in Asia since last September, and my log-in history long before "Black Friday" went down proves this), and won't let me play real money games anymore.

I've emailed FTP Support explaining my situation. Gah, what awful timing, they must be backed up with emails, but I hope they get back to me soon because time is ticking, and a big fat bonus is waiting to be cleared!!!!! :eek:

All this bonus money is coming out of the US players accounts probably...

And the tickets are using the US players points and medals...

That truly sucks -- was your address not updated in your Full Tilt profile?

Also, you have until May 8th to claim the bonus and THEN 21 days to clear from the time you actually claim it. I'll be waiting to claim mine on May 1st and then hit the tables hard next month to aim for gold or iron and clear as much of my $300 bonus as possible.

If your Bonus is $100 will be pay in $10 increments. You’ll need to earn 250 Full Tilt Points per $10 increment, and a total of 2500 Full Tilt Points to release your entire $100 bonus.



How to Earn Your Added Bonus

Get your Added Bonus money by earning Full Tilt Points in any real-money game on full tilt poker, including our revolutionary poker format: Rush Poker*.
Once you’ve accepted your Added Bonus offer, you’ll have 21 days to release your bonus money by earning the required number of Full Tilt Points. You’ll clear $0.04 of your bonus for every Full Tilt Point you earn, and your bonus money will be paid out in 10% increments, with a maximum increment of $20.
For example: if you receive a $20 bonus offer, your bonus money will be paid out in $2 increments. You’ll need to earn 50 Full Tilt Points per $2 increment, and a total of 500 Full Tilt Points to release your entire $20 bonus.

Please note that bonus points earned during Happy Hour or via Black Card membership do not count towards The Added Bonus.
Earn Rush Poker* Ring Game Tickets

In addition to your Added Bonus money, you will also get Rush Poker* Ring Game Tickets based on the bonus increments you earn. Along with the first bonus increment, you will receive one Ring Game Ticket with a value equal to the increment. Clear 40% of your Added Bonus and receive a further Ring Game Ticket. Clear the entire Added Bonus to receive a third Rush Poker* Ring Game Ticket.
For example: if you receive a $20 bonus offer, earn your first $2 increment and you will also receive one $2 Rush Poker* Ring Game Ticket. Earn $8 of your bonus and receive a total of two $2 Ring Game Tickets. Earn the entire $20 bonus and you will receive a total of three $2 Rush Poker* Ring Game Tickets in addition to your $20.
Ring Game Tickets will be credited to your account when the full bonus is cleared or at the end of the bonus period, whichever comes first.

You can keep track of your Added Bonus status by going to the Cashier in the Full Tilt poker game lobby, then clicking the Bonus Account button.



Ring Game Tickets have a number of properties that determine how you release its cash value to your real-money balance:
Current Value

A ticket’s Current Value is its latest cash value.
For example, a $100 Ring Game Ticket starts with a Current Value of $100. You buy-in to a ring game for $25, which you increase to $50. When you stand up, your Ring Game Ticket is now worth $125 (the unused $75, plus the $50 you stood up with). The ticket’s Current Value is now $125.
FTP Release Value

A ticket’s FTP Release Value is the target number of Full Tilt Points you must earn to unlock the cash value of a ticket. Only Full Tilt Points you earn at ring game tables where you buy-in with your ticket count towards the FTP Release Value.
Note: Bonus Full Tilt Points do not count towards the FTP Release Value.
The final cash value of the ticket will be released to your real-money account at the conclusion of the hand where you reach the FTP Release Value. Your ticket will also be expired and removed from your balance.
Max Value

A ticket’s Max Value is the maximum value that a ticket can be worth when not in play.
If a ticket’s Current Value is greater than its Max Value when you stand up from a table, the Current Value will be reset equal to the Max Value and the excess cash value credited to your real-money account.
For example, your Ring Game Ticket has a Max Value of $500. You begin a session with your ticket worth $400 and you increase it to $600. When you stand up from your seat, the ticket’s Current Value is reset to $500 (equal to the Max Value) and $100 is credited to your real-money account.
Minimum Threshold

A ticket’s Minimum Threshold is the minimum value that a ticket can be worth when not in play.
If a ticket’s Current Value is less than its Minimum Threshold when you stand up from a table, the Current Value will be credited to your real-money account and the ticket expired.
For example, if your Ring Game Ticket has a Minimum Threshold of $2 and you stand up from a table with its Current Value at $1, we will credit your real-money account with $1 and expire the ticket.
Note that every Ring Game Ticket has an expiry date. Please check it carefully to ensure you get full use from your ticket.
You can check the current balance of your Tickets, and any of their properties, by visiting the Cashier in the game software and selecting View Tickets.

The ring game tickets should appear in your cashier after you unlock the bonus. You can then use the cashier to track how much each ticket is worth.

Actually unlocking their value is insane BTW - I played about 450 hands of $5NL Rush yesterday for a grand total of 13FPPs. You need to make 50FPPs to unlock a single $2 ticket. On the upside the profit on top of $2 got added directly to my account balance once I stood up. On the downside I had to short-stack $5NL which feels super-dooper-scummy :p
