Question for you guys ->
The bonus on FTP amounts to what rb% approximately?

For example, I got a $300 bonus from FTP but I don't have rb. And I want to figure out if its like 27-30% rb, if that the case I can finally f*cking play some rush poker!

Well, one FTP=$0.06 in bonus
If you assume that, on average, each player at the table pays the same amount of rake, then your share of rake for 1 FTP=$0.11 ($1/9 players)
Your rakeback is 27% of that, so for each FTP you earn, you'll also make about $0.03 in rakeback.

So the bonus is twice as good as rakeback.

Although that's dependent on my assumption that over the long run, you are paying 1/9th of your FTPs in rake. I've got no idea if that's a reasonable assumption or not. Obviously it's true over an entire FR poker population, but I don't know if certain playing styles lend itself to paying more or less rake per FTP.

I don't keep track of my FTP earnings per session. Does anyone?

Oh. That's what you mean.

I just meant I know i get at least 200 FTP per session lol. I'll have to check on rake and all that fancy stuff.

I've been at 500 a day myself for 2010. I decided to move anything over 500 a day to Pokerstars, under the theory that I could hit SN by the end of Dec with my excess, max out my FTP bonus (because, honestly, after 500 there's not a lot gained except RB) at the same time.
03-05-2010 , 03:11 AM
wow rush is awesome! Damn if I had rb at FTP, then I would play there 100%

hey el nino you may want to set up some terms quickly if you want to do your prop bet.

looks like you may have other ppl interested in doing a similar bet:

well since the overlay impacts your MGR, you get this I think

(overlay/number of players) * 0.27 being your rakeback deduction.
But overlay being free money and equity, 73% of free money is still better than nothing tbh
