Full Tilt Poker Percentage

Let say I'm new, deposited 600.

27% rakeback plus the initial bonus equals approximately what percentage of total rakeback?

Thanks

No exact answer as it depends on the tables you play...and how quick you clear the bonus...

Here is how points are earned for bonus clearance:

[ QUOTE ]
For each dollar raked from a pot, every player who was dealt cards for that hand will earn one point. You can earn partial points if less than one dollar is raked, and you can earn up to three points per hand.

[/ QUOTE ]

S0 if you were a high limit player at a 6 max table you could clear the bonus in 3333.33 hands
this would mean the total rake taken would have been $10,000
Your share would be 1/6 or $1666.65

Your bonus would be $600
Your net rake $1067
Rakeback $288
Total comp $888
Effective rakeback on $1667 = 53%

Of course that's just one example...
if you were playing headsup it would be more...
10-Max...less

Thanks for the detailed explanation, that's the reason why I choose you guys as my rakeback affiliate.

Here's my situation:

I normally play 1-4 tables for LIMIT 3/6, how will it work out for the initial bonus percentage wise?

Thanks

Welcome aboard…

OK there is no exact answer given the parameters at the tables change continually but will do my best...

Assumption is you are playing 6-Max full tables..
(though the rake on the 9-Max tables seemed the same)

Average pot (at time or writing) across 4 full tables is about $32

Therefore the average rake is $1.60 so you get on average about 1.6 points per hand so you are clearing $0.096 of the bonus per hand

it will take you 6250 hands to clear the bonus...
your average rake at 6-max is $0.2667

So by the time you clear the bonus you will have paid $1667 in rake ($888 in total comp) so actually it turns out for this example your rakeback would be the same as my example of 53%

If you were at a table for 9...
your average rake contribution would be $0.178
Your rake would be 1111,
your net rake would be $511
your rakeback would be 27% $138 (total comp only $738)
so total comp would be 66%

Which of course means my previous post was the other way round, apologies.
Logically this makes sense because at the table for 9 you need the same amount of hands to clear the bonus but your average cost per hand is less than at a 6 table…

Kind regards

depends how tight you play. Can be up to or over 100% in theory. The tighter the higher your % back
