I just depositted $600 on FullTilt (1st time) with their 100% bonus. How long does it take to clear $600 worth of bonusses on (a) live games (b) tourneys?

Since this expires is it all or nothing? can you clear half of it and then cash in for 300 if you can't get all the points needed in 120 days?

Clears in $20 increments.

$20 or 20%...when I did it it was percentage...and it sucked.

EDIT: it clears in $20 increments if you deposit $600.

If you deposit less it clears in lower increments.

(The lowest is $5 increments on a $50-100 deposit).

Don't bother, life is too short!

By some strange co-incidence I deposited there yesterday (actually needed some stuff from amamzon so did an ECD deal for some vouchers <G>)

yesterday I played

428 hands of .5/1
136 hands of .25/50
373 hands of $10 NL (hands are raked at a $1 pot)

according to the cashier that lot cleared $6.69 bonus!

I deposited $600 at Full Tilt in August and played there almost every day through to last week.

I mostly 3-tabled 1/2 LHE and found that the bonus cleared at a regular rate of around $20 per 900 hands.

You might well ask why I stayed there for so long, so missing out on easier-to-clear bonuses elsewhere?

Well, IMHO the software at Full-Tilt is the best in the business. Great look and feel, very fast gameplay, and some really cool features.

I also found the players suited my style, and I won about $700 whilst clearing down $300 in bonuses over 3 months.

You will also find that S&G's contribute to the bonus clearing, but I am not sure at what rate.

If you play micro-limits, then yes, you shouldn't bother. But at 3/6 or higher it clears fast.

It's effectively a 42% rakeback for SNG's (e.g. a 50+5 will earn you a little more than 2 bucks of bonus).

FullTilt SNG's aren't overly abundant, but it's a much quicker way to earn the bonus than low limit tables. If you're playing below 5/10 it's painfully slow.
