[Closed] Strategy Points

At Full Tilt you get a lots of opportunities to earn double and sometimes tripple FTP. For example during happy hours. Here you'll find more about rake to point ratios.

I hope this helps.

Is the Strategy points obtained. Could u site admin and mods help me find out what am i supposed to receive as Rake Back.

PokerStrategy bonuses are deducted from your rakeback. You won't get any rakeback before you paid somewhere around $450 in rake. With your current play it means it will take ages before you get anything at all.

Hello chhalincrush and welcome to the site!

Its good to see you are already finding leaks and I hope you continue actively searching for more (I really recommend the hand evaluation boards!)

To answer your question; it is quite hard to directly calculate your rakeback from Full Tilt Points - since Full Tilt deducts several things from your produced rake (such as the bonus & things like Freeroll participations & Full Tilt Point spending).

That doesn't mean you will necessarily receive no rakeback in the beginning - just less.

A quick breakdown of how it approximately works:

You have 20 StrategyPoints so your Gross Rake (the rake you paid) = about $10

Amount of cleared bonus: You have enough FTP to have theoretically cleared $5 of bonus already. This is subtracted from your gross rake; $10 - $5 = $5

You participate in freerolls or tournaments outstanding fees (Full Tilt also subtracts things like money transfer related fees) = these will also be subtracted from the remaining $5 - x - x = your NetRake

Lets say you didn't have any subtraction aside from the bonus, then your netrake = $5 * 0,27 (27% rakeback) = $1,35

Together with the bonus you would have thus received 6,35$ of your rake back. $1,35 of which would be paid back on Fridays.

For the case of you having already cleared your entire bonus - while not playing in Freerolls or the like it gets easier - as your Gross Rake will approximately equal your netrake - so you just need to multiply it with 27%.
