I knew the Deal Me In freerolls were going to have big fields... but it's really not worth it until we get to later in the week imo. I was looking forward to playing these... now, not so much (at least not till Thursday+)

Deal Me in Promo can be activated until late Dec, so probably gona wait some time to get there. Trackers/Ninja and even site probably not work properly for some time. Also player pool will take some period to get back, right now are 45k players vs 200k on Stars.

Basics seem to be working OK. Very slow action on STTs though, was routinely waiting 10+ minutes for them to fill. But then a lot of the players were worse than I remember, so that's something.

None of the other stuff seems to be working though (my bonus account / Edge account info, account history, etc). Teething problems I'm assuming.

At least you are back to play online, should be something after some time away, yay?

Bonus and Edge was working fine for me yesterday ($200 bonus and Edge appear like Silver).

The Deal Me In $200 bonus?

I don't seem to be getting that (I didn't accept it before Nov 2 or whatever the date was, so maybe that's the issue) but aside from that I should've been eligible for the Ironman midyear bonus from before the shutdown and I don't see that anywhere... anyone else get theirs?

If you have mid-year bonus the deal me in bonus won't show up until you clear the mid-year bonus (or it expires on December 19th). The mid-year bonus doesn't show up in the standard bonus area in the cashier, you have to go to 'my promotions' in cashier, then click on 'iron man challenge' in the left menu, then scroll down halfway and find 'my personal mid-year bonus' link in the text. Convoluted, I know. Direct link is here, though you need to be logged into FTP for it to work:

https://my.fulltiltpoker.com/mid-year-bonus

If your mid-year bonus doesn't show on that page, be sure to contact support to get it sorted out.

Took 4th/263 in the Carbon $250 guaranteed freezeout to win a payout of $19.73. Not a bad return on a $1 investment :D

Found it, thanks :)

Anyone know if the midyear bonus pays in partial amounts if you don't clear the whole thing, or do you have to clear the whole thing to get anything? The way I'm reading the page it sounds kinda like the latter...

I originally assumed it would clear in $20 increments like it used to... but I just cleared my first $20 and nothing was released.

I'm going to do some snooping and ask support about it. It would really suck if the entire bonus needs to be cleared to earn any of it.

Got 4th in the Carbon $500 guaranteed Daily Dollar Dazzler for a decent payout of $38.08. Kind of sucks that I'm bubbling on top 3, but making final table is still sweet.

Random MTT brag poast, BBB is so passe.

Sitting here tonight railing both the league game and Debi going deep in the VDS Ladies Event, and figured what the hell, I'll take a shot at an MTT. Why not the $2000 GTD on Lock for $11? Why yes, don't mind if I do.

Bink!

Not my biggest score by far, but it's been awhile, the MTT gears are a little rusty. :)

I ran so good it was sick. Won like every flip, and got money in bad more than I can remember. Once the bubble burst after about 2.5 hours or so I remembered why I really disliked MTTs, lol, and just became a major aggrotard. Figured I'd set myself up to win it or go home with whatever they gave me.

Speaking of sick hands, the one that sealed it was with 6 left. Too lazy to post the HH, but I was the big stack with like 140k and opened A4c OTB -- I had been a stealing fool, my stats at this table after 95 hands was 30/28/32(AF)/60(Steal). 2nd stack (~92k) in the BB 3bets. He had played back at me a couple times before so I figure he's 3betting light given my image, so I resteal shove the farm. He snaps off with AQo. 4 in the door, dontcha know. I felt kinda bad. Just for a second though. Having more than 50% of the chips in play 5 handed made me feel good again. :D

HU lasted one hand. Opened A5c, villain shoves KJ, flop comes A5x. :)

Just a follow-up on this -- still waiting on a reply from FTP Support. Well, I actually got two replies but neither of them addressed my actual question. They then sent a third reply saying they are forwarding my question to another department and to not expect a speedy reply.

FTP support still be FTP support. :shot:

I was hoping that pokerstars would have put their support know-how into the new FTP, but I guess it will take them time to restructure. One can only hope that support will improve after this initial adjustment period.

I'm kind of just assuming though that we won't be able to earn any partial bonuses and that the mid-year bonus will have to be cleared in full... which makes me glad that my bonus wasn't any higher than it is.

BTW, I played in about a dozen or so of the deal-me-in freeroll donkaments... and have about $5 to show for it lol. Anyone with a big score from those? Final table in the $10k ones had some pretty decent payouts.

Those DMI freerolls were brutal for me, just suckout after suck out =p, busted 2 of the 10k ones with KK late on in the payout heading to something slightly decent for money to pocket 10s and pocket 7s. And all the other ones were just mine fields of ATC all ins i couldn't survive through.

Ran deep in the MOSS 10K guaranteed last night. Made it to about 50 people left, when I went all in with 5s, and the guy calls with 7s. Won $22, which is pretty good for only a $2 buyin.

LOL - I'm getting nothing if that's the case then. There is exactly zero chance of me clearing the whole thing.
