Not sure, I've never really paid attention, but if I had to guess, I believe you have to see a flop to earn FPPs.

At 1-2 limit and below everyone who is dealt cards gets one FPP for any pot that is raked 40 cents or more. At 2-4 limit it takes the minimum rake of one dollar to give everyone one FPP.

If you don't see a flop, the pot is not raked, so no FPP. I don't have any experience with Limit, but I know that the number of pots which have at least $.40 rake increases from 50NL to 100NL to 200NL. Even at 200NL, its only around 0.6 FPP/hand because some hands never see a flop.

Yup. It's worth mentioning that at 1/2, the pot is raked 25 cents at a time, so the minimum for an FPP there is essentially 50 cents. However, everyone who was dealt cards gets a point, even if they folded preflop.

No partial points in the cash games.

Just to clarify, when you do get partial FPPs in tourneys, they are not rounded up but rounded to the nearest whole number.
