Absolute or Full Tilt

normalcy · #1 10-11-2007, 07:15 PM

Does anyone know which will make for more money?

Full Tilt is 27% rakeback and they use the hands dealt method.

Absolute is 30% rakeback and they use the contribution method.

Looks like Absolute has a few softer games, but not by much. But, most of their 6-max games at the .50/1.00 up to 2.00/4.00 level are bad beat jackpot tables (take .50 out of every pot that the rake reaches .25)...

any opinions on which is a better choice? thanks

Well, Full Tilt didn't just have a massive cheating scandal where they never acknowledged it and just swept it under the rug so Full Tilt would be my choice. Full Tilt also doesn't change their terms on a whim and make that retroactive. They also aren't nasty spammers like AP is either.

Also keep in mind that 30% at AP is really 25% if you are in the US because they deduct deposit fees of about 5% from your MGR whether you deposit or not. Full Tilt doesn't deduct deposit fees unless you actually deposit. Also as you mentioned most AP games are jackpot tables where there is about an extra rake and AP keeps about 25% of that rake. It works out to about $.12 a hand extra at AP as only about $.38 actually makes it into the jackpot after they take their cut.

So, which would you recommend?

If I'm not a good AP salesman who is? BTW you should consider UB also as they are owned by the same quality spammers and all the fine changing of terms as well as the BBJ rake.

Ft is a rockfest. Play absolute if you have to pick, but they both suck.

Trust me on this - you've never experienced customer service like FT before!

If you go with AP be sure to get a "super user" account when you sign up...If you do not ask AP for one before you make your first deposit you will not be eligable later...

I can see your next post 2 weeks from now...I did not get "super user" account when I sign up is it to late now..Please help I am getting busted and can not understand why..
