Changes to FullTilt Bonus
 

Starting in Februrary, it looks like they've changed the payout breakdown. It had been paid out in 10% chunks so the chunk size depended on how big the bonus was. A $100 bonus got paid out in $10 chunks, a $600 bonus got paid out in $60 chunks.

Now they say 10% or $20, which ever comes first, so any bonus between $200 and 600 will now be paid out in $20 chunks. (Seems like a good thing).

Question: Can you deposit money on FT to get a deposit/reload bonus and then withdraw the money (like Party Skins) or do you have to leave the money in until you clear the bonus?

You can withdraw your money and the bonus remains pending in your account.

So is the bonus easy enough to clear relative to other sites?

Are the games sufficiently soft and available to make it worth playing there?

Re: Changes to FullTilt Bonus
 

Have the requirements changed? According to their site you can earn between 1-3 points per raked (not contributed) hand, with each point worth .06, it looks like it would take upwards of 10,000 hands to clear at 1/2.

Does the bonus ever expire?

Re: Changes to FullTilt Bonus
 

From searching posts here, the consensus seems to be that the games aren't all that soft, there are table availability issues and relative to many other sites, the FT bonus takes much longer to clear.

That said, with the new bonus payout structure of $20 chunks instead of $60 for a $600 bonus, it means that I can earn portions of the bonus in less time than before.

Given that I don't need to tie up the money on FT (can withdraw after depositing to get the bonus) if I have no Party/Crypto bonuses to clear, I can go spend sometime on FT.

It's still the same clearing method (just smaller chunks to clear). The bonus expires after 120 days.

I guess I'll play here when not clearing bonuses elsewhere.

That's what I'm starting to think. I just started playing there yesterday. The games are anything but soft. I love the software and the customer service is the best I've ever seen. My withdraw posted to Neteller in 1 hour. So..they have a lot going for them. They just have to get some more soft players. It's hard to find a lot of games. I told them they also needs to make the points easier to get.

Yes. I always see people here saying "oh man the Full Tilt games are rocky as hell" and I think "what?" and then I realize, they're playing LIMIT. The Full Tilt NL games are crazy fish oceans.
