| "Thanks for helping me get rakeback at Full Tilt, I went from a break even player to growing my bankroll while I improved my skills. Thanks to rakeback, I'm now beating 200nl. Adam was very helpful in answering all of my questions about the rakeback program."

Full Tilt Poker Rakeback Explained |

A detailed explanation of Full Tilt Poker's (FTP) methods for calculating MGR and Rakeback.
Full Tilt Poker is a very popular poker room, for many reasons. Their game selection is amazing, and as many of you know the more games to choose from, the better your hourly rate and the more rakeback you can earn. Because of this and many additional reasons, FTP rakeback is our most popular offer. This article will explain all of the important details of FTP’s rakeback offer.
Percentage of MGR Returned
This is an important variable to consider when choosing a rakeback deal. However, there are many other variables to consider in order to understand the true value of the rakeback deal. We have negotiated the maximum allowed by Full Tilt Poker, 27% Rakeback. This is a couple percentage points less than most of our rakeback offers. However, as you will see in this article, because of other variables, Full Tilt Poker’s offer is actually one of the best in the industry.
Method of MGR Calculation
This is a very important for anyone who plays ring games. There are three different methods. For more information on these methods, check out this article. FTP is one of the few poker rooms that uses the dealt method. This is the best type of rakeback for winning players who play a tight aggressive style. Tighter than average players will be credited with more MGR and earn more rakeback at a poker room that uses this method. Future articles will discuss how to estimate how much of an impact this will have on you.
Rakeback Payments
Many rakeback deals pay you once a month, but not at SmartRakeback.com. We have negotiated a special deal that allows our players to cash out their rakeback, as often as they like. Payments are made directly into your FTP poker account, or into an e-wallet, such as Neteller or Moneybookers and they only take an hour or two after the initial request.
Rakeback Stat Updates
Rakeback Stats are updated daily for Smart Rakeback players. This is nice for tracking, but even better, it means rake you contributed yesterday, can be in your player account the very next day thanks to our special deal!
Method of Deducting Bonuses from MGR
Each poker room deducts different items from MGR. At FTP they deduct Bonuses from MGR. This means if you earn $600 in bonuses, your first $600 of rake contributed you get 100% of it back and after the first $600, you earn 27%. If you were at a poker room that offered 27% Rakeback and a 100% bonus with no deduction, you would earn 127% rakeback for the bonus period. However, very few poker rooms offer MGR without bonuses deducted.
Method of Calculating Bonuses Earned
Remember to consider that FTP’s generous 100% first deposit bonus of up to $600, is also credited using the dealt method. Which means you will earn FTP’s bonuses faster than a poker room that uses the contributed method.
Sit-n-Gos (SNGs) and Tournament Fees Included in MGR
Some rooms don’t add SNG and tourney fees into your MGR. This can be a substantial loss for some players. Luckily, FTP includes these fees into MGR calculations, because it just happens to be one the best place on the internet to play SNGs and MTTs. For every $1 in fees that you pay, you will be getting back $0.27, this has a great impact on your ROI. |
