Endless Rakeback saga at FTP...and other sites'.

[brank]

so you're saying that a MGR of 9.66 would have givin me 9.66 FTPs then? If so then I would have only cleared he tail end of a $1 bonus. so the bonus would be 27% less cause of the RB hit? that works out to 1.87rb. thats pretty close to what i got.

we do get killed by the rake dont we.

 

[WVHillbilly]

Actually MGR does really equate to FT points. You get 1 point for every $1 in rake collected from the table but you only get your share of that toward your MGR. So if 6 people are dealt into the hand and $1 in rake is collected you get 1 FT point but your MGR only goes up by $1/6 or 16.67 cents. If you play FR it's your points divided by 9.

ah, so thats how it works. i always wondered what the diff was.

check my email this morning what do u know i got rb from full tilt
all i did was go to rake back pro and sign up (a week ago)
never contact ft , i guess its was because i signed up at full tilt
a long time ago just never played there till i won some money in cc freeroll
thanks cc ....now iF I .. can get the br up I'LL just keep grinding away now that i'm getting rake back, was spending all my time on PS

You'd be better off emailing RBP and telling them you don't want RB Nick. In fact we all would be better off if you did that.

RB is completely wasted on you. Just something else cAPS should be totally pissed off about I suppose.

Edit to add:

BTW for those of you who actually play poker this is what rb can do for you even at low volume (this is ~20K hands at 100nl):

That's $348 for those of you who don't want to add it up ( or .87BB/100 and at lower limits it's a full BB/100 or more).

Oh yeah, and I cleared the $50 bonus in there too so that was deducted from my MGR.

i was wondering...do u think a person should not accept the bonus if receiving rakeback or does it even out???

 

[WVHillbilly]

No always accept the bonus. The bonus is like getting 50% RB.

ah ok thx....i just got an email saying im gonna receive it starting next friday.....i already have +$5.00 rb and almost $15 received from bonus

 

[thebluff1000]

congrads....i didnt even know exactly what it was b4 this thread and i applied after i saw teebones post and did exactly like he said and got an acceptance 3 days later.....thank you TEEBONE

 

[slycbnew]

Maybe if we start a petition we can get cAPS and poofy on board too?

Edit: oops, just saw poofy's already in, maybe for cAPS?

 

[Debi]

Pooffy just got it I think - so it is just me, Caps and a handful of others lol.

I signed up through an affiliate so there is no hope for me. I don't really want it though - I much prefer playing at Pokerstars and only play at FT for CC stuff and to clear bonuses once in a while.

 

[Pascal-lf]

You guys are complaining about -$1 rakeback balance?

I played in a first depositor freeroll and my balance is -$31, revenue -$7!

Lucky I won $40 to even it out but I'm still collecting my initial bonus so could be a while

Yes, I just got it, just as I had given up hope.

I still don't have it. And I hate that I still don't have it!

 

[thebluff1000]

I still don't have it. And I hate that I still don't have it!

do exactly like i did .....teebones last post in this thread....and no problem at all

 

[Stu_Ungar]

I still don't have it. And I hate that I still don't have it!

Yes but isn't the reason you haven't got it that your account is linked to an affiliate?

 

[dg1267]

That is what they are saying, but I'm 95% positive it's not. I played on Full Tilt before I came here because the FT freerolls is what brought me here. The only other poker forum or poker related site I've ever been to besides here is (bleeeeep) and I joined there after CC.

I'm almost positive that I joined straight from FT due to seeing their commercials on the wsop. But they keep saying I'm tied to an affiliate.

*Posts to rub it in cApS face *
Havent played on FTP in over a year cause i never had rakeback and when i emailed them they just said they where gonna put me on the waiting list or w/e, moved back there recently to clear my 300$ bonus.
Any way after reading this thread lastnight i emailed Rakebackpros asking if they could hook me up, got this today :

I couldn't help but mail them again.

I even linked this thread.

*sigh*

 

[WVHillbilly]

Sorry cAPS this thread is obviously a source of amusement for the high ups at FTP. Why I could have sworn I saw both HLederer and Jesus usernames viewing it just last night.

Are you also linked to an affiliate?

 

[WVHillbilly]

No he isn't. They just like messing with him.

 

[Stu_Ungar]

No he isn't. They just like messing with him.

That sucks, I just cant understand it, virtually all of my contact with FT is first rate. What did Caps do in a previous life?

Wow - never heard anyone say that before lol. They are not only slow as turtles - there are times they never respond at all.
