Full Tilt Deposit Bonus

Ok,Full Tilt has a 100% deposit bonus promotion going on. I'm trying to get my head around their points system and how many SnG's I'll need to play to clear the bonus.SnG's pay 7 points/$1 entry fee. Therefore a $5 SnG will give me 35 points per SnG. Each point is worth $0.06, that gives us 35 x 0.06 = $2.10 per SnG. For a $100 deposit, Full Tilt pays the bonus at 10% levels of deposit amount. So, we only have to play 5 SnG's to receive each $10 bonus, 50 to receive the entier $100 bonus.Does anyone play there? Are my calculations correct?

A $5 entry fee would be the fee on a $50 SnG I believe. I haven't played at FTP in a while, but the entry fee is typically about 10% of the buy-in. At Stars, they list entry fee with the buy-in, ex: $50+$5

Ah, that makes a little more sense. Seemed a little to generous with my calculations.Thanks.

you pay $1 in juice, you get 7 points, 7 points times 6 cents per points means you would get .42 in bonus.42% juiceback is pretty good, especially if you play the smaller sng's since it means you have juiceback for a long time.in ring games if 9 players are at the table and they all get a point, 9 times .06 is .54, so $1 in rake paid by the table pays back 54%.

the bonus at full tilt isnt really worth bothering with if you are playing sngs. there are sites with better rakeback/bonus deals that you can play those at.

I was considering Full Tilt only becasue I'm trying to get my hands on a free copy of Poker Tracker, promotion is available trough a couple sites.Any other suggestions for the free poker tracker offer that's better/easier to clear?
