Got $100-thanks for the heads up. Now hope to clear some of it since I play $1-$2 SNGs.

People without rakeback only?

So I'm curious. I have a friend with rakeback, and he didn't recieve this offer. I did recieve it about a week after a strongly worded email to support requesting rakeback lest I take my rake to stars, which I had done already, and will continue to do after I whore this bonus real quick.

In their response they said they'd put me on a list for alternative promotions for people without rakeback. I was assuming that this was the mentioned olive branch, but it looks like some rakebacker's got this too? Is it maybe people without rakeback who've whined + people who generate enough rake for them to want to suckup anyway? This seem to make sense based on parameters you all fit into?

Good theory, but no. I have rakeback and I got the bonus. However, I haven't played much on full tilt. I usually only played the CC buyin on Sundays. So I don't know why I got the bonus.

You got the bonus if you deposited on Full Tilt and didn't have an outstanding bonus. It has nothing to do with rakeback.

Who is Eligible to Receive a Holiday Hundred Bonus?

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 and finish your 100% First Deposit Bonus. If you do so, you’ll receive a Holiday Hundred bonus offer by December 2nd and have until 23:59 ET on December 6th to accept.
  • If you have an active bonus, you have until 23:59 ET on November 30th to finish your active bonus. If you do so, you’ll receive a Holiday Hundred bonus offer by December 2nd and have until 23:59 ET on December 6th to accept. To see if you have an active bonus, go to the Cashier in the Full Tilt Poker game lobby, then click the Bonus Account button.
In order for any active bonus to be considered finished, you either need to clear the entire bonus amount or have the bonus clearance period expire by 23:59 ET on November 30th.

ya it's not something you'll fully clear at 2NL. Unless you mass multi-tabled and played all day maybe. 1667 FTP isn't happening at 2NL.

Thats cuz your playing 2nl man, not much in rake there, i play 10nl atm and i can clear about 60ftp's a session on average, just gotta fit in about 30 sessions this month and i'll get it all :D

Best thing is i just finished earning my $100 deposit bonus today so when this bonus comes into my bonus offers i'll have been earning a bonus of some sort for my entire time on ft lol

I just checked and I don't have the promo, probably because I never deposited. It sounds like the same terms as "The biggest bonus ever" in September. I played like crazy at micro stakes that month and only cleared $25 of $100.

Yea - it is not easy to clear. I will probably only clear half of mine since I still need to play at pokerstars to clear my bonus there. I would have to play strictly at FT to clear it all.

Yes it was a stupid question, because it says at least three times above that happy hour points don't count for unlocking the bonus.

I did not manage to clear the first 10$ last time around, so annoying, fell short with maybe 30fpp's.
This time is a different story, I am going for the big money. Maybe 20$, if I can find time to play that much.
So, for the people who play a lot. Who will be the first to clear the whole bonus?

Bonuss

Yeah my last bonus I cleared only $15 and that was at 2nl and 5nl. But i have learned to multitable pretty well, and have moved from 10nl up to 25nl and you can clear the bonus pretty fast if u 8-16 table 10nl or 25nl. I figured that I get wayy less rakeback also it seems, but I guess with a bonus u kinda get ur rakeback right away as opposed to the end of the week? I'm kinda curious as to if I had not accepted the bonus would I get more rakeback compared to the 10$ incraments, or when u get a 10$ incrament does it deduct 10$ from ur rb? I know it says plus rake n juice and minus bonus', but I have never fuly understood mgr and net revenue and rakeback...I guess I'm just happy to recieve anything, and I remember always hearig Bonus>Rakeback? but always like to try an figure out the specifics.
