FTP bonus

[Kurn]

yeah, I saw it this morning. I managed to get in 500 hands of low limit LHE this afternoon to get started.

I'm not familiar with how they award FT points. Is it like 'Stars FPPs?

If so, cash games pile up the points faster than SNGs. Anybody know for sure?

[MAYHEM45]

1 point per dollar of rake. 7 points per 1 of tourney fee. .06c per point.

[Kurn]

Pretty similar to 'Stars, then. cash games > tourneys

[Talking Poker]

Cleared.

How did you find out about this, mayhem? Did you get a nemail or spot it in an add on their site or did you just happen to check your bonus offers.

I would never know about these things if it weren't for you guys.

[Robbr25]

I got an email that it is there and I have till Monday 23:59 to accept then 10 days to clear

[MAYHEM45]

I read something on 2p2 about it, figured id pass it along as i didnt get an email either.

I've got the bonus, which is really funny. I've played there once (for the TP league game) in the last 6 months, yet Rob who has been playing there exclusively the last month and a half got nada.

[Talking Poker]

I disagree. I mean, maybe cash games clear faster than MTTs, but no way are they faster than same buy in SNGs (especially HU). I cleared this today in like an hour.

[New Guy]

Should we wait to get this bonus until after the rakeback of does it matter?

[Talking Poker]

Doesn't matter. It will come off of next month's (February's) payments. And while it will lower your gross rake by $75, that will really only cost you $20.25 of rakeback when all is said and done, so you'll still be about $55 to the good.

[melioris]

$75.

Unlike other FT boni I didn't get an email notifying me of that I was eligible for this bonus; I only realized after I checked the "check my bonus offers" option after reading this thread, so thanks Mayhem.

Yeah, after a few drinkies, I like the run-on sentences, you got a problem with it?
