Full Tilt Fast 50 Bonus Offer

[SlySwagga]

i got that 100 bonus too i just dont think i can clear it w my upcoming $100 deposit.

 

[WVHillbilly]

Anyone get their rakeback today from fulltilt :hmmmm: ?? I didn't see mine after i sign up for the $100.00 bonus????

Are you sure? Check your transfer history. I didn't get an email but my rb was in my account like usual. Rb email has been messed up for a few weeks now.

 

[psy0nyd3]

Oh yeah and I forget to prove that you're actually getting 73% of the bonus amount!

If you had no bonus you would earn $238 * .27 = $64.26 in rb.

73% of $100 = $73.
$73 + $64.26 = $137.26!!!

So every time I clear a $10 increment it will apply a $-2.7 rakeback to work off? Thanks for the info btw I hadn't realized that fulltilt taxes rakeback when you earn things but they do that when you spend points or play on their dime too eh.

Correct. They also deduct from your MGR when you cash out. I think a check's like $50 deduction to your MGR ($13.50 rb hit).

Have you logged in? They are not actually giving it till you earn it. It is usually released in increments of $5 or $10 as you acrue points.

 

[Marginal]

I know why I dont have a bonus. I understand ftp and I agree.

 

[coolnout]

So how do you explain some people gettin $100?

FTP support would have to explain that. "$50 or more in bonus money"

 

[cAPSLOCK]

No bonus. But no deposit ever.

This is fine, as I might clear $3.18 of any bonus I got...

I wonder why non depositers are less loved though. Is my rake less wonderful?

 

[billyjustin]

just be happy you got something. i just recieved it to. i have only freerolled myself a bankroll on here, so not sure of there selection proces who cares though right. i have cleared 1 and half through 2nd release. I am doing couple ring games and also doing a couple rush's. dude....goes by quick if you just dont get felted. my bankroll is relatively low..but high enough to get me in some nice ones. but in my opinion...best way though....i just thought of and slapped myself in head...PLO!!!! if you got some omaha game and relatively good....just sit in a 9handed game play tight and watch the pot grow

 

[forsakenone]

no bonus for me either, is it because i have a 2.5$ bankroll?

Fulltilt Disconnects.... argh!!

I've been having some problems lately with Fulltilt disconnects. It's so disconcerting you're sitting there in tourney situation... worrying you're going to disconnect... ie. stacks deep enough to 3bet in hopes of getting it in... you 3bet then... 'bink'... the ol' disconnect... ARGH!!! It's just been happening to me since the last updates (happened before but not for awhile). Affects my play quite a bit as I'll find I'll start overshoving in fear of the dreaded disconnect.
Anyone others having problems on there lately? (everything else and all other sites are running smoothly on my computer... it's just Fulltilt that isn't).

 

[Maid Marian]

It's done it to me at the worst possible times...usually with my very best hands...

 

[psy0nyd3]

Yeah I've been having the same problem. Last night it kept disconnecting over and over, was really frustrating. Every time I'd make a bet or call, the fold/raise buttons would disappear, and I'd see my clock counting down, until right before it ends, the bet pops up. Reeeeallly annoying. It seems to be fine now though.

 

[psy0nyd3]

Correct. They also deduct from your MGR when you cash out. I think a check's like $50 deduction to your MGR ($13.50 rb hit).

Oh wow that is rough.. Good thing I'll never have enough cash for me to withdraw...

To accept the bonus offer or not...

I have rakeback on FTP, and they've got this Fast 50 thing going on. They offered me a $100 bonus, but is it worth it for me to accept since they deduct bonuses from rakeback? Wouldn't I just be getting my rakeback in the form of the bonus?

 

[Poof]

It is worth it to accept it. Free money is free money and I believe Hillbilly covered in another thread that the amount of affected rakeback is outweighed by the bonus.

 

[Corey]

I got the $100 bonus offer too - I'm definitely going to activate it. I had done a $340 first deposit bonus, but was only able to clear $140 of it. Then I slowed down my play on FTP for a few weeks. Then I got this bonus. I figured they do this to players who disappear for a while like me.

 

[Corey]

Correct. They also deduct from your MGR when you cash out. I think a check's like $50 deduction to your MGR ($13.50 rb hit).

Damn, that sucks. One way around that is to sell FTP money to your friends - they give me cash, I make a transfer. I have 2 friends that will do that $20-$50 at a time. I just make sure to never play with them in a game so as to not be accused of colluding.

 

[blankoblanco]

only a % of it is deducted from your rakeback, but it's still easily worth it. i believe a $100 bonus will end up being equivalent to a $73 bonus for those of us with rakeback. it's still free money, if you were going to play anyway

 

[Corey]

I thought you had to finish one before starting another...or is IM bonus different? I had a first deposit going when fulltilt was giving away bonuses and couldn't activate the bonus offer until I finished the other one or it expired.

WTF is "IM"?

 

[Poof]

if you were going to play anyway

I think those are the key words.

 

[Logan2]

Not happen to me in this days but i do see a lot of folks disconected and i need to wait for them.

I was thinking was his conections, i guess is fulltilt.

 

[Cdub512]

i got a $100 bonus, ill probably start using it the first day of mini ftops. i assume you have to deposit for the bonus??

 

[darkk927]

So if I unlock the first increment of $10, they don't deduct 10 from my rakeback, only a smaller percentage? And in the end I will still make 73 more dollars in bonus in abundance to the amount of rakeback I lose?
