Has anyone ever had problems getting their bonus deposit from Full Tilt?

Interested in depositing $600 there and double up...

whats the most, if you deposited before, amount you deposited that you got a bonus for and how long did that take?

Also how long would it take in general to withdraw?
 
It takes a while to earn your bonus. The easiest way to di it is playing standard ring games a lot. It will still take a while though. If you only play once or twice a day at most then it will take quite a while to earn your bonus - and you don't have unlimited time either, there's a cap of about 6 months i think. Once you've earnt it though withdrawel is simple and take under a week to credit to your account.

What part of QUALITY POSTS dont you understand this post of yours is pure garbage, and has nothing to do with the OP, or are you trying to hind your spam where you think no one will see it.

...says the guy racing to fifty posts to play a freeroll. Could only make seven today, might not have that many tomorrow. I've read your other posts.

...sorry OP, no answer. I've been wondering this myself. I've been putting off depositing there because I want to maximize my likely bonus without investing more than necessary. Seems to me I need to be playing 25nl succesfully to deposit alot and have any chance of meeting the bonus requirements.

Edit: LOL already banned while I'm in the middle of my post.

UB has no time limit

Ultimate Bet has no time restrictions for clearing your bonus.

I deposited $100 there and am playing .01/.02 NL.....its taking quite a while.....but I'm playing within my bankroll and I have rakeback.

Get Rakeback.......it heals the wounds of playing forever and breaking even.....and trust me....EVERYONE has those stretches.
 
Full Tilt only releases 5 dollars of your bonus at a atime. and a message should pop up saying " 5 dollars of your bonus has been released into your account" its not like theyll just give you 600 dollars right into your account so you can cash out and make 600 dollars. Nope thatd be stupid. You have to get so many FT points before theyll let you have your bonus released.

The bonus is released in increments and is credited to your account instantly, play ring games during happy hour to clear it twice as quick. ( happy hour runs twice a day ) multi table for faster results.
 
While Happy Hour does give you double points they do not count double when clearing bonus. Only the base point counts (same for Iron Man purposes).

At NL25 you'll need to play @ 17,000 hands to clear $200.
 
I have never seen a site which does not get more in fees than they give you in matching funds. Ring games have the highest fees/rake so this is the best place to pay your fees/get some back. All in all, matching offers are a good way to get some of your fees back if you play a lot. Full tilt's offer is a good one. I actually prefer Bodog's offer, but Full Tilt is a much more popular site.

Good luck in growing that bank roll.

Thanks for that info WV, why the hell didn't FT tell me this though?. Another good reason for being a CC member.😎

17000 at NL25 to clear $200!? Wow..hm..so 51000 hands at nl25 to just get $600..thats sounds about 2 months of play..

Would I have to be involved in every single hand or just be dealt that much?

How much was your bonus?
 
I deposited the max $600 at Fulltilt about 6 months ago. They clearly state when it runs out i.e. 4 months later. I usually played 3 tables at the deep($20 max buyin)5/10c blind no-limit. Hard too say how much time I spent on average but it must have been 2-4 hours a day. Usually generating $2-5 of bonus each time which is only credited to your Account in increments of $20.
I know WVHillbilly said Happy hour don't count but it sure felt like it did in my case. I made $12 bonus on a hot streak once!, took 8 hours though.
At the end of the 4 months I had generated $520 of the possible $600 & found it tough when it was'nt propping me up lol.
I spent about 20 hours at the 25/50c, max buy-in $100 NL tables when I was getting bored...a big mistake as I did'nt adjust but when checking the bonus on a rare winning session it was'nt much more so stick to those small tables.
This was my first deposit & I was ignorant as so I had no clue about Rakeback so make sure ya get that too.
My playing style was pretty tight(thats what 3+ tables are for), not Dan Harrington tight but nowhere near loose. So I'm just an average ABC player.
Even if you have'nt got all those spare hours you'll be able to rack up $200 in 4 months with 60-90 minutes a day I reckon..

Are we getting a bonus for every hand we play or every hand we are dealt?

I am also a 10nl (sometimes 25nl) player and probably getting in 20k hands a month on avg. may considering playing the 25nl with a $600 BR at tilt since the 10nl players are always short stacked...also heard the rake at 10nl is insane
 
You'll earn points at Full Tilt Poker for every hand you are dealt into that sees a flop (takes a rake). You do not need to contribute to the pot to earn points.

To clear the entire bonus at 20K hands/month you'll need to play NL25 and besides the rake at NL10 on FTP is twice what it should be.
 
Full Tilt poker bonus is equivalent to a 42% rakeback iirc. So you need to generate $1429 of MGR to clear it. Also, if you sign up with a rakeback affiliate (a must for full tilt), you'll get the usual 27% rakeback on the remaining 58%, so in total you get 42+(58*.27) = 57.6% rakeback while clearing the bonus.

At 25nl i used to pay about 4BB/100 in rake at FR, so that makes $2/100 hands. That means you need to play about 70000 hands to clear the full bonus that way. That means about 1000 table hours, i.e. 1000 hours if you play a single table, 500 hours if you 2-table, 250 hours if you 4-table, 167 hours if you 6-table, 83 hours if you 12-table, ...

It requires a bit less hands if you play 6max instead of FR, but then you usually can't multitable those as easily as FR.
 
if i deposit At ft do i automatically get entered into this double up 100% promotion or do i need to enter a promo code somewhere??

if its your first time depositing you get the 100% bonus
 
When I first deposited I was able to clear the bonus quite easily playing the 5c/10c Omaha-8 tables. The rake on these is double the regular rake. You want to play the full ring (not 6 max) super tight. Find a table with a high average pot size since you get points for hands you are dealt cards in, you don't have to see a showdown (for a while I folded every hand). I would usually 6 table it and as a nice bonus, got ironman status (1 bronze, 2 silver) in the 3 months it took to clear. The downside is it can be very tedious and boring, plus if you are not tight you can lose quite a bit on these super aggro tables.

When you play the ironman freerolls, you only need to pick up 1 or 2 pots to make the low end of the money which is still quite nice. The bronze one I was in had several AFK players make the money.

Best of luck to you!

The 5c/10c games have double the regular rake. Not good for actually playing, but great for clearing bonus.
