i don't wanna put a dent in your plan but it's gonna be pretty much impossible to get the $250 bonus 2-tabling 10NL. i've done the math. even 4-tabling, we're talking ridiculously hard, all poker all the time for a full week

gl with whatever you try though

When I am lazing around I could get about 400 points/per day but it really is a huge step to the 1000 points. w/e just have to grind I guess.

I think I remember the previous "Take 2" promotion regarding Rush Poker and I have the impression that it was slightly better.
Anyone who earned five points in each of five days collected $5. Anyone who earned five Take 2 bonus points in all nine days of the promotional period earned an additional $20. This $20 is on top of the $5 already earned for the first five days, so every customer who earned the five points every day scored $25.

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

Yep this is true but isnt rush poker much faster than normal ring games? Good point though Blanko I obv wasnt thinking that day must have been a day ending in Y those are the days my brain dont work.

Light speed donk calls and suckouts coming in the next RUSH WEEK!
Don't miss this chance to spend all the day playing rush poker for an unique chance of getting more bad beats and suckouts the more hand you play.

We will give a small amount compared to what you will have already lost by the time youget the points and oh, hey you will get an entrance to a multitudinary donk fest rush 50k freeroll with thousands and thousand of people...!!

I have to give some credit to this comment, results are paramount, don't be bluffed by bonuses.

Personally, I think your looking at it this wrong.

Ballpark would be 7-9 hrs./day 4tabling 10NL. I REALLY WANT THAT MONEY!!! But its gonna be hard for me. Im gonna at least make an attempt at GOLD.

Ive played 15K hands of Rush NL so far in July trying to get ready for this.

Does anyone know if this promotion will effect the iron man bonus? Can you do both at the same time? I could email FTP, but I'm lazy.

Can't see any reason why it would affect it and I plan on clearing both at the same time :)

Not worth it for the cash bonus but it may be worth it to play a tournament or two to FT one for entry into the FR.

Playing four 10nl Rush tables you will average around 80 points an hour. So to hit the 1000 points, you are looking at around 12.5 hours.

Gonna be a lot of rushing about next week, but not 1000FTP worth. Guess most players will be hitting the 100 per day like me.
