Full Tilt Points???

[Poker Orifice]

I just noticed that today Fulltilt is advertising a 5,000 FTP buyin tournament coming up in October (Oct.18 14:15) that has a guaranteed prizepool of $250,000. Unfortunately I just blew my FTP's on MiniFtops Tourneys & satellites but by playing the one I recommended above (650FTP Sup.Satellite SNG) I should have the 5,000 in a short order and will then be playing that $250k guar. for sure!! I think it'll be worth it.

Personally what I would do is.... wait until you have 650FTP's, then enter the 650pt. SNG Super Satellite to the $750K. It's a typical 9-plyr. SNG with payout being 1st & 2nd get 2,500FTP's (which you can then unregister from the 2,500FTP satellite and keep the FTP's)... & 3rd gets 850FTP's .

does buying into the ftp SNG's make you lose rakeback as well
or is it just buying things from the store or buying into actual money tourneys?

there is only one reason i can think of is saving the points for when u go broke. A month or so back i went broke and used 200 points to enter the daily dollar and finished high and got my bankroll rolling again.

Or you can use 1,000,000 FTP to buy a custom avatar, the pros have it.

The Take Two program has given my account quite the boost on terms of FTP's when I multitable, especially if I do it during triple FTP happy hours. I've used 'em to get into satellites to get into the 750K- I think I played two of 'em and generated 5400 FTPs. I used those to play the 1 table SNG's for a $24 + $2 satellite tokens - I've gotten two of those so far. Haven't used 'em yet though.

I'm not at the point in my poker career where I wanna try and go for the gold and satellite into a $240+$16 (or higher) tournament- so I'm gonna try and get as many of these $24+$2 tokens. It reduces my risk, IMO

The best deal was when they were running the 5 point FTP tourneys a few weeks ago. That was great value and I cashed frequently in those.

The hockey jersey and the camp shirt are awesome (Kobe and Bill Blass brands, respectively), fwiw.

best to use ur points to get into sat's. Unless u want a FT hat? I mite get one but meh...

I won a 600point SnG to earn a $26 token to a MTT. Still havn't used it yet tho as i havnt had the time or dedication to play in a big level MTT.

I used my $26 toruney ticket to play in a $26 double stack MTT $34k GTD. There was 1850 players and i came in 62nd to cash in $77.50.
Not bad from 600FTP points.

I'm getting a free week of cardrunners this month from trulyfreepokertraining.com then what I'm planning on is spending 12,500FTPs for a 3 month booster to cardrunners. but there were a few good idea posted here as to how to use them. i like the save them till your broke one. also the 650FTP 9 player satellites I'll be sure to look into. i have been eying those plastic playing cards at the store. theres also a 50FTP 9 player satellite to the daily double to check out too.
