Am I a fool?

[WWKMS]

For playing without rakeback?

I'm going to try to e-mail support on Full-Tilt to see if i can add Rake Back to my account.

i already have an account on all major sites from years back, i'm planning on re-depositing after a break from online poker but I'm wondering if I'm just losing a ton of money without rakeback. should i just try to join one of the "other" sites and utilize rakeback?

FT will tell you no, don't waste your time.

1. If you didn't know about rakeback when you first started playing, you're far from alone.

2. Good luck with that one, even if FT does respond to your mail.

3. As for how much you lose, many sites have rakeback calculators that show how much RB you would get depending on how many hands you play, how many hours, what limit, etc.

wouldn't say you were a fool (although that is purely based on the fact u didn't know about rakeback when u signed up I don't know you and you could well be a complete and utter fool)

There is NO CHANCE of FT (or any other site as far as I know) giving you RB on an existing account if you didn't sign up at the very beginning.

IMO, if not having RB is going to mean you are losing buttloads of $$, cut your losses, ditch FT and Move on to another RB paying site or Stars for the FPP etc (I KNOW the 2 are completely different so don't bother pointing it out)

Go to cake and get 33%. Not too shabby

What if you were to threaten to FT that you'll leave and go to Stars unless you get RB? Leave and go to Stars if they don't give it to you. Nothing lost, right?

Id look around OP,for example,i got this letter from my aff.(a very well known and legit one) yesterday...

"Do you have an existing UltimateBet account WITHOUT rakeback......we may be able to help you get rakeback on it"

You probably are screwed,but on occasion,sites will make exceptions and convert existing accounts.

I haven't heard of FTP making an exception

I pay over 5K a month in rake to Full Tilt and I can't even get them to return MY email, what makes you think they will bother with yours?

Can't OP close his or her account and start over? I heard AP was friendly about this in the past.
