I do have a question with regard to the bonus...Is there a time frame in which you must make it??? I only ask because I had a deposit bonus on FT, but it had a deadline....In short...is there a deadline in which you have to make your bonus...

I don't mean to be redundant, or repeat myself...

I don't think there is a deadline (certainly nothing like 75-100 days), but I'll double check and post back at the top if I find otherwise.

Team FCP,I just noticed that the statistics session browser combines the net results if you play both real and play money ring games simultanoues as I did tonight. Although under the "session details" window the two sessions are listed separately, under the "available sessions" window on the left hand side the net result combines the net of play and real money games. I thought I would report this since this was probably not intended. Although it was nice to see a net result of +$1470 for those two sessions combined, I know I'm just fooling myself when $1450 of that net came from the play money game :wink:EDIT: The total number of hands shown in the left window also combines both real and play money games.Thanks and keep up the great work!

Naturally it would be easy to put down or pick on small things that is wrong with fullcontactpoker.net. However, unlike some, I have more praise then negative comments. The protege contest is wicked, orginal and the best thing out there period.The websight looks slick, it has the appearence of a premier poker web site.One that it will eventually be hard to find a good table.I applaud Daniel for having the foresight, and the balls to proceed in a area in clearly where he is the underdog.Within a year FCP will clearly be one of the very few websites that is "cool" to play at and be in.Good luck Daniel, and to all of you that will be or are already part of this monumental event, I look forward in seeing you at the tables, and taking your hard earned cash.

tried to get FCP working with pokertracer but it seems like FCP isn't saving hand histories in a database file like other pokerroom skins. Will FCP have pokertracker capability in the future? or does it now and i'm missin it?
You probably didn't choose "Enable Statistics" from the main lobby "Sraristics" menu. It is working like a champ with PokerTracker for me.Put me down as another vote for using the raked hand points system for clearing bonus instead of the percentage of rake paid system.

I see that this is already be looked into by the FCP team, but thought I would just go over my math to see if I am on the right page.I play 50cent BB P/L and N/L. One table at a time. I figure that it will take me about 22 weeks to clear the 300. I play tight usually seeing the flop less then 20%. I keep tract of my stats and I average about 17 to 18%.The average pot I see at the table for FCP is about $15 for the level I play.Now figure that around 80% of the time I raise when I play a pot. Of the 18 times out of 100 I play I will just win the blinds about 3 times. So I see the flop 15 out of 100 times. Now assume that I put in 30% of the pot when I play a hand. This will account for multi way pots, and when I fold to bets on the flop and turn, and such. There would be 75 cents in rake from a $15 pot. I would have contributed about 23 cents of that. Times that by the 15 hands I play out of every 100 that there is a rake , and you have 3.45 in rake per 100 hands. So I would get say 1.75 for round #s in bonus money every 100 hands. Seeing that I play about 800 hand per week I would get $14 in bonus money (8x1.75) per week. Take the $300/$14 you have just over 21 weeks.If I am on the right page here I just can't see putting my money in. Also I cannot find anything that says when the bonus expires. Most sites give you 2 to 3 months some longer. If this site gives me say 3 months I would never see the full bonus anyway.

Verifying Your Personal Information During Money Deposits: When depositing real money:If you use Neteller, you should not have to go through the personal verification process which requires faxing information about yourself.
What about firepay? Some of us live in a state that Neteller doesn't recognize.

The most recent update run for "free" money and FCP points seems to have calculated things incorrectly:1) The free money is still being released at a 3:1 instead of 2:12) It seems to have significantly undercounted my play.I've played two different days:Day 1: 5.18 hours, 388 hands of 5/10 bonus released: $26.16 (translates to $78.48 in rake paid) FCP points earned: 784 (translates to $78,40 in rake paid) I think I paid $77.02 in rake, but that is pretty close.Day 2: 8.63 hours, 636 hands of 5/10 bonus released: $20.54 (translates to $61.62 in rake paid) FCP points earned: 617 (translates to $61.70 in rake paid) I think I paid $122.64 in rake. That isn't very close.

The Bonus does not expire. You have as long as it takes to clear.

Ok.. when I deposited from neteller, I somehow transfered money to my poker account, but transfered my bonus (free?)money to the casino account (Corona induced, of course) Can I just transfer the bonus money back to the poker account (beer opening) or have I lost the bonus money? (not playing blackjack again...it's rigged and the music sounds like a 70's strip bar)

I think you just need to have the bonus money in the cashier account and it gets awarded properly. At least mine is in the cashier account and it just gets converted to real money that you can then transfer to whichever account you want

The bonus is still crap, just a different shade with roses planted around it. For people that play 5/10 and above it's competitive, but for the ones that don't, It is one of the worse sign up bonuses that I've seen around the web. There is no difference in clearing the bonus between people that are Charter Members and those that aren't. When poker stars offer reload bonuses, I have to play roughly 800 hands to get $120, so three reloads, I play 2400 hands and they give me $360. On Absolute, I play 2400 hands and they give me $200. On FCP, I play in excess of 16,000 hands and I get $330.I'm just making an observation and if that's what the "New FCP" is looking for, that's fine. Daniel doesn't owe me anything and I didn't expect anything.

How are people advertising the site, other than word of mouth?
When I got a free $10 on a new poker site, that had like 5 people on it, I plugged the site a few times. one more time after I got rivered for my money.

Suggestion:How about even more stastic tracking that tracks your BankRoll over time at FCP? This would be neat to see (well for some)....lol!!or percentages showing what pocket cards you won with when you won so you can see what your truly favorite hand should be.It also may help those to see how much they are really losing (okay nowI just ko'd my own idea cause that means less money for you guys)
