After BF I deleted Full Tilt from my p.c and will definitely have to reload it.

Is CC going to have a Poker Sign-up Bonus on the

https://www.cardschat.com/poker-bonuses.php

page?

Hopefully there will be something like loyalty points, or rakeback or straight out cash inducements?

You already have an account there, so you would not be signing up for a new account to get a sign-up bonus(cannot open multiple accounts), not to mention it's probably way to early to say what there would be, since FullTilt isn't even back open.

Yeah, I guess I am just getting excited.
I only play small stakes multi table tourneys.
My stats on Stars are pathetic whereas I was doing ok on Tilt before BF.

Still no word from the DOJ.

It looks like it will take the DOJ much longer to pay the US players then it would, if stars would of done it.

hope to get some of my $$$ back, since I do leave in germany now and can play on some sites they restrict US players.
I did have cashout a month before FT close door, so had few hundreds left on account.
Never got them back.
That's going to be good if I and all other can retrieve some $$

:)

Pretty sure I had right around 300k ftps. Looks like they're worthless unless FTP comes back for real $$ in the US or I move out of country.

email from FT, looking forward to Nov the 6th:


Hi KerouacsDog,

We would like to share some pre-launch information with you about the changes planned to full tilt poker’s existing loyalty program offering.

Full Tilt Poker will re-open on Tuesday, November 6th. On that day, a comprehensive player rewards program will be introduced, which will replace the Iron Man Challenge, Black Card and affiliate-paid rakeback programs.

The way in which players are rewarded will be greatly simplified, with eligible players receiving weekly cash payments. These payments will be based on the number of Full Tilt Points accumulated, at a rate of up to $2.50 for every 100 Full Tilt Points earned.

The weekly payments will differ from affiliate-paid rakeback in that the amounts you receive will not be reduced as a result of the various marketing costs you incur (for example, if you spend points in the Full Tilt Store) or other fees.

We will send you more information on the introduction of our new player rewards program, and on the transition of players from the Iron Man Challenge and Black Card programs, on Tuesday, November 6th. If you are eligible to receive the 2011 Iron Man Mid-Year Bonus, it will be credited to your account upon re-launch.

We look forward to welcoming you back to Full Tilt Poker.

Full Tilt Poker

Best we could have hoped for, I will get my FT hat out of the drawer...

I imagine a lot of US players will be trading FTPs and cash with others on US friendly sites?? :rolleyes:

That will be difficult to do since we can't transfer anything.

What? Did you somehow miss the title of this thread? Stars OWNS Full Tilt now and the US govt is on the hook to repay US players. Stars/New FTP has less than nothing to do with US players getting our $$s.
