| You might want to play on PS as there is more value for you in doing so than playing on FTP without rakeback. |

to be honest even without rakeback ill stick with FTP as i like the software and the academy is awesome plus i like looking at high stakes games. and theres a bunch of fish which im sure its not that different than PS But overall i like FT more when i dont have to talk with their support. and as long as my Br is moving up since im half decent at crushing the 2$ sng hu i love it. Im also tracking it via PokerTracker which actually says i earn more than i lose in rakeback. as long as i keep my hands off cash games.  |

My understanding is that you will not be eligible for rakeback since apparently you originally signed up through an affiliate. I was fortunate enough to be able to avoid this complication as I signed up with Full Tilt many years ago directly through their website.
There's always the "girlfriend" option.
If you play 100 matches you can make over $4 in rakeback at the $2's. If you play the $20's...100 matches equates to $27. If you play 100 matches a week (considered moderate volume for a serious player) that's $1404 per year!!! Imagine if you moved up in stakes within that year...
So, yes, rakeback is important. There are many sites that offer excellent rakeback promotions that you can take advantage of through tagpoker. I have an account with Cake Poker that I opened through tagpoker that pays 33% in rakeback. The site and software are not my favorite, but 33% is freakin' sweet. Also, Pokerstars has some kind of bonus structure they award to high volume players (Supernova Elite...or something???), but I'm not sure exactly how it works. It does generally have some kind of equivalence to rakeback programs per the cognoscenti.
Best of luck! |
