Full Tilt's Holiday Hundred bonus

[IcyBlueAce]

I don't see why anyone would get excited about this promo. To earn 1667 FTPs would mean you've contributed about $200 of rake at full ring tables. So basically you're getting half back, or less if it affects your regular rakeback.

Now that last Take2 bonus was a real sweet deal. Just 1 FTP a day for 25 days. So of $25 in rake, maybe just $4 would have been what you spent to get $50.

Yeah, I got the $100, but won't clear $20 of it at the limits I play, especially if Happy Hour pts don't count. The $10 increments suck as well - 330 pts is no better than 167 pts. And like Debi mentioned, it's hard if you also play at other sites. But I guess if you're playing a lot of medium stakes at FT anyway, and the FTPs just keep coming, it's certainly better than nothing.

That really makes no sense, your getting $100 that you wouldn't be getting in the first place.:icon_sant

I think you missed this point.....

"But I guess if you're playing a lot of medium stakes at FT anyway, and the FTPs just keep coming, it's certainly better than nothing."

My main gist was that earning $50 by accumulating 25 FTPs is a lot easier than earning that same $50 by having to accumulate over 825 FTPs. Many thousands of people able to get a $50 bonus easily starting with a tiny bankroll. Does that really not make any sense to you?

P.S. Of course I accepted the bonus 'offer'. But I'm not gonna play all day, increase my stakes level, or do anything different. If I clear $10 or $20, fine. If not, no biggie. But that's the most I (or anyone else playing micro levels) can expect.

why would any one not take the bonus?? I have cleared 30 and close to next release. When I played on thanks giving X3 points seem to go to bonus.
If you dont clear any whats the loss ???

I dont have rake back or I would be goot. But I joined fulltilt a long time ago. Seems like I would deserve rake back

Any bonus or Promo that they run DOES NOT credit 2x, 3x, 5x, or any x points.

Thanks for clearing this up. It sure makes it alot easier to earn the FTP bonus!

You many lose so much just trying to clear it like I used to

i think ur right...i finally cleared $40 like 5 minutes ago and i quit cuz i only have 24hours left and i cant reach it in micros but overall...i want a different bonus...didnt like that one specially compared to the easy $50 bonus like a couple months ago

 

[PC69]

I cleared half of mine.. It ends today for me at six o clock so pretty sure that will be all i get out of it..

 

[Poof]

I cleared 20 smackers and have 2 days left. I am sure this is it.
Good luck to everyone else trying to clear.

Oh well... FT needs to bring back Take 2!

Anyway... I didn't die guys... I'm still kickin...

I waited until the last minute to claim mine since I was really busy last month. I have untill the 1st week of Jan to complete.

 

[RoyalFish]

Mine expired today. I logged off last night at $50.02 knowing I'd never play enough today to make it to $60. In fact, I didn't log on at all before it expired. All in all, it was 50 free bux for me. I did actually play more than I would have otherwise, but profitably, so it was probably win/win (I won more, FT got more rake).

I must have missed out on the $50 for 25 FTPs. Sounds like a great deal.

how did the take 2 work?

 

[coolnout]

how did the take 2 work?

play 2 ring games simultaneously any stakes every day for 25 days and earn 1 ftp while doing so = $50.

 

[Zorba]

Show-off!

But he didn't tell you it cost him $800.00 to do it.

They did it in February, and then once again in September. In February the bonus was $25, and in September it was $50. Nope was capped at those levels.

 

[PattyR]

well coolnout i def hope they run it again. seems like agreat deal

 

[NBA2K10ROCKETS]

man those full tilt people are smart they use promotions like these to make people get enticed and make them deposit money and lose it and i know that because i depositted twice which is 60 i total i could have bought a nice ralph lauren shirt with that >.< i think i'll stick with making a bankroll from freerolls.

 

[only_bridge]

I managed to get halfway with my bonus. Was set on clearing all of it, but turned out to be too tough. WTG e1 who did without going bust.

 

[canucks921]

I just cleared $10 and I think that is it for me. It is extremely tough to clear at the stakes I play at. The good news is balance is more that when I started so I didn't lose money trying for the bonus. I'll take it.

 

[given68]

I ended up only collecting 30 of the 100 that i had available to get. Just another case of playing no cash tables. Come on Take 2 looking forward to that one again if the promote that promo at another time.
