Full Tilt's Holiday Hundred bonus

[WVHillbilly]

I did not get a bonus offer from tilt.Personally I dont do bonuses because I dont want my account binded up with having to earn points.Alot of sites wont let you withdraw until you clear bonuses.I just dont play enough ring games n such to pay me to earn bonus money.
I wonder how many of you that got this bonus will actually clear all of it.That will be interesting.On another note,what if you lose all your money and cant clear the bonus??Do you get to start over fresh?,or do you still have to clear points in order to make a cashout?

If I only clear part of it then it is still free money. I like it because they do it in $10 increments. At Pokerstars you always have to clear the whole thing to get anything.

Anybody who loses all of their money trying to clear a bonus has serious bankroll and common sense issues and absolutely no $$ to cash out.

I got mine today as well, and I'll accept it later today.

It's been my experience that full tilt's promotions are very misleading. They do this to get you to play more. If you want a site that doesn't use that kind of trickery in their promotions try carbonpoker. They tell you what you're gonna get in simple language and then give it to you as promised.

how is this misleading? they spell every thing out for you at: http://www.fulltiltpoker.com/holiday-hundred

You’ll clear $0.06 of your bonus for every Full Tilt Point you earn, and your bonus money will be paid out in increments of $10. You’ll need to earn 166.7 Full Tilt Points per $10 increment, and a total of 1667 Full Tilt Points to release your entire $100 bonus.

I got my 100 too but will probably accept it later. I agree its quite clear cut!
I would need to earn roughly 50+ FTPs a day (like my Ironman) to clear the full $100

Well I just cleared my first $10 bonus so far, but am down 2$ lol. Do HappyHour points count for it or not? I see it says on the HappyHour page that happy hour counts towards other bonus' as well, but on the Holiday hundred page it just says .06 for every point earned, doesnt say whether happy hour counts or not, any1 know? Also i just thought about rakeback, i guess this bonus might hurt it?

 

[turby]

no quite sure it wont affect rb

 

[TPC]

It will affect rake back and happy hour points don't count.

Hopefully this be success right here. Iam hopefully going to successfully complete a entire bonus offer.. Might not be big but hell iam determined to get every cent of it without killing my BR....

I played two sng's during Happy Hour and the 2x points did NOT get credited towards the Holiday Bonus.

Well luckily I got out of my month tilt phase or whatever it was, losing streak. I am only .90c short of the 2nd release. I do see HH points don't count now, ah well. For my rake, through rbpros, I got 2$ less today than I did the last 3 days, so I guess it's not that big of a deal. I am back up also woot, 25.10$ up from when I started the day! Knew it would turn around!

I guess this is the only downside to building up your bankroll through freerolls w/o depositing, i can't do this promo. Ill have to wait for the year end iron man bonus...

 

[swissarmy]

I got 300..looks like everyone else got 100 dunno why I got the extra

 

[Goldog]

I haven't played in months. Just checked and I have $500 waiting.

I used to generate some serious rake there. I guess they'd like to lure me back:icon_sant

I've never deposited and I got the bonus. Try emailing them.

 

[sharkyo01]

Going to do some serous grinding this weekend!!! Hopefully get $50 / $60 of it at least! But I'm going to try for the hole a lot!

 

[Effexor]

Nutz. Nadda...

I logged onto my FT account and looked in the cashier and saw nothing. After I played 1 hand, a popup came up telling me about the bonus offer.

It's under requests on the main lobby: Check bonus offer..

You might have to play a raked hand before you get the offer??? Not sure, I didn't look there before I played that raked hand.

 

[thebluff1000]

im having trouble brinking up my BR but i might make a couple of increments

 

[Roger1960]

I didn't get anything. Thanks for the heads up though. I will tell my brother to look.

 

[moeraj]

Sounds to me like mass confusion. Nobody knows what they are getting. That was my point. If you play enough they'll pay you I'm sure.

It's easy to find out what you are eligible for - just check your bonus offer under requests and it tells you. If nothing is there it will tell you that too.

Once you start playing you check your bonus account in cashier to see what you have earned so far.

Nope. Just played a $0.43 raked hand... nadda. I think youhave to deposit - which I never have.

Yep - from the rules:

"If you’ve made your initial deposit at full tilt poker and finished any active bonus by 18:30 ET on November 15th, you’ll receive a Holiday Hundred bonus offer immediately

If you have not made your initial deposit, you have until 23:59 ET on November 30th to make your first deposit ..."

I am eligible and I have emailed FT support about it. They sent me an email telling me that I am eligible and that they offered it to me, yet everytime I check my bonus offer, there is nothing there. I've emailed support twice now and still nothing.

 

[Poof]

Don't check my bonus in the cashier- go to the menu on top of lobby, I think it might be under requests and there is a drop down menu there for bonus offers.
