DMoogle: Your calculations for the $600 and $300 bonuses are off b/c they're deducted from your MGR. The $600 bonus is really worth $438 or $0.146/medal.

Clearly the cash bonuses are the WORST buys if you have rakeback.

Is this true even if you play no bigger than 2/4, where the rake is much larger?

No matter what stakes you play, the bonus deducts from MGR, and therefore, rakeback.

Gotcha, but tournaments don't cut into your MGR, making that the best deal I suppose.

Correct. I suck at donkaments so I'm just going to stick with the other stuff.

Tournaments do cut into MGR. The overlay is divided by the number of players.

Yeah but (A) in my experience there are rarely overlays at FTP, and (B) that would generally be a minuscule amount.

That 50k points or even 100k points for 2500 medals is a great idea.
Nice to see FTP support getting on the ball.
For those of us who hate donkaments there should be another option.
Maybe 10,000 medals for a date with Shawna Hyatt?
