Default Full Tilt fantasy freerolls

Does playing in these affect your MGR? I think it would be fun to play in the game types I've never played before, but am not going to do it if it deducts from my MGR.

I e-mailed full tilt this question and, as you'd expect with full tilt, haven't gotten a response.

Shrugs,

Playing in any promotional or freeroll tournament on Full Tilt Poker does impact your MGR. The deduction to your MGR equals your equity in the tournament which is calculated by dividing the total prize pool amount by the number of entrants. Multiply your equity by the rakeback percentage you receive from your affiliate to determine the actual dollar amount of the deduction.

So, you win your way into the freeroll and it negatively affects you. Guess I'll stop wasting my time on the fantasy picks.

Yeah, I hate getting a 73% discount on my tourney buy-ins too (more if you take into account that their is no fee either)

No reason to pay to play games I really don't know how to play. As for the NL games like today's, it's such a low payout and it's a big pain to play quick while multi-tabling when only two other guys show up at your table in the beginning. It's not worth the effort.

You can opt out of the freerolls.

So I can waste a few hours time for $8 (9-1 from rakeback) when playing it probably cost me more than that in distraction from other tables alone? No thanks.

And I'd probably only be able to cash in NL or PL Hold'em. I might try the other tourneys for fun if it didn't cost me to mess around in freerolls I already won my way into.
