He's crazy good, I think he even has a book on tourney play. I remember he even had a huge chip stack in the ME last year, and then someone risked all their chips with a flush draw. Turner had a set of Aces and lost ...

You clicked "Requests --> Check My Bonus Offer..." right?

Btn had <$6 left, there wasn't anything left to raise with. He just didn't call off for his last ~$4 after putting $43 in the pot.

Ok after the giant swingy crap that i experienced yesterday, ive decided that im going to give December another chance and start it again.

Purge, imo!

All at da fiddy?

My losses were all at $50 but i got it back at $50 and one table of $200pl

OMG you are a beast.

PSA: 16 days after my Iron Man Bonus purchase, and 2 emails to Support, I get an email this morning:

"Thank you for contacting Full Tilt Poker Support. We're happy to confirm that your Iron Man Bonus for $600 has been credited to your bonus account. Similar to our 100% Initial Deposit Bonus, the Iron Man Bonus accumulates as you earn Full Tilt Points..."

You're going to have to be patient and you'll likely have to bug 'em once or twice. I've got a feeling that everything Iron Man is manual for FTP - nothing is automated. I mean, the buttons on the Iron Man page don't work - just try turning your little medal icon thing on/off. Also, we know that the mid&end-year bonuses always take a couple days to get added to our rolls.

Security tokens have been a huge victory for Full Tilt complainers. If they fix the short stack solution, I hope that we can put enough pressure on them to get a legit support staff.

I have a friend who is thinking of getting into online poker. My question is whether there's any referral program I can take advantage of without screwing my friend out of rakeback or anything.

WTF betsizing. Bet enough on the turn to put the shorty all in... no reason to let him him have chips after your turn bet. baby clubs obv.

refer your friend to a rakeback provider, they will give you some percentage of his rakeback (on top, he will still receive the full amount), I think between 2 and 4 percent is standard.

c'mon... of course i did that. every 5 min. but nothing...

i wonder why nobody here did not talk about it.

all of you guys just got/activated it already or simply don't care about it?

You must explain how you can lose 10BI in 3k hands and decide to keep playing, I salute you!

I received & cleared it the first day. Didn't really give it any of my attention.

I would like a free $100. Looks like I'm eligible. Wonder why I didn't get it?

I cleared that one last month already.. Some people got nothing, some 100 some 300 etc.. think there was a big thread on it

no, no... that was something else. i cleared that one too.

if you read in http://www.fulltiltpoker.com/holiday-hundred the section where says eligibility condition in case "you have an active bonus" sounds that this is something else, like a new offer...

i mean, when i got that 100 there was no "holiday-hundred" promo running. and now sounds to me like if i cleared the first one "until 23:59 ET on November 30th", i should receive receive a "Holiday Hundred bonus offer by December 2nd"

is it just me (paranoic) or am i right here?

When did you get that hundred? Was it after Nov. 15th? 'cause if so I think it was the Holiday bonus.

This is incorrect. If you had a different pending bonus at the time everyone was receiving the $100 offer (i.e., first deposit bonus), then if you cleared THAT one by 11/30 you would receive the $100 offer. If you already received the $100 offer in the middle of November like the rest of us, then that was the Holiday Hundred.

Ah, ty.

I should probably stop posting about hands on 2+2 when I'm multitabling

Jon (Pearljammer) is a ridiculously good player. His book with rizen and apestyles is one of the best I've ever read regarding tournaments... plus he is a pretty cool guy to talk to and his gf is a pro too and she's also cool.

~gtp

+1. I get in my own head too much.

Pssh, everyone knows that the only things that matter in poker are metagame and kickassredline.

I wasn't aware today was Three Bet Wednesday!
