... < So I've won a few $2 Ring Game tics playing 'The Deal Jackpot',....but I've noticed that every time you leave the game with more than the $2,...it's duration gets extended by another day...! When I first won this tic...its expiry date was April 24th or 25th...but it's now April 30th...(pic way down below)! As long as you win,..it keeps getting extended... Same thing as the other ones I've won...!
... < ...is anybody aware of this...? New one on me...
It's been a while since I played at FT, but I thought you just had to use the ticket at least once week, for it not to expire. You don't even have to win, I believe.

I won one i think it is more than a week ago i played and lost most of it with $0.65 left that i did not know what to do with since the min. to enter rush or ring table is $0.80 that i had seen.
But when i saw your post and pic. i went to see the ticket for the first time and there was some tables were i could play. So i entered a six handed table won a bit and left the table with $0.83 the i went to see the ticket and the date is now Apr.30. So i think that marqis is right win or lose if you use it then the date move for one week.

I didnt know about this extension in time. Only what marqis said that you had to play once per week and win or lose, you you were extending it for one more. But if you are a daily player this is not an issue. Unless you set reminders for your tickets

Yup. Every time you play with the ticket, it extends its life back to the original period of validity. A number of sites do this, requiring a certain amount of play, sometimes just one hand (raked probably) to maintain its existence and your ability to keep growing your winnings. Keep it going until you have reached the total achievement to convert it into real money in your bankroll.

In my post yesterday i explained that i managed to get my ticket back to $0.83 so i could play rush poker.
This morning i went and play entered with my total balance of the ticket and after a few hands i got A Qs so one guy raised to $0.06 so i decided to shoved i got two calls and won the hand with a return of a little over $2.00.
Now i have the original ticket money and extended again to May 1st.

... < Ah-HA....! ...so that's how it does work... Mine too got extended another day until May 1st as I used it last night after midnight to qualify for The Coin Freerolls the next day. I never leave it until I'm back up above the $2 and keep the profit using the $2 tic again the next day. The last one I had went for about 10 or 12 days before I lost it in an all in...but the profits add up over the duration...
... < I use it playing Zoom Gold Rush tourneys so as to get the extra benefit of a prize,...which all I've won so far is a $2.5K Goldrush Freeroll tic,...and two of the sats to it...!
... < Let's just see how far I can make it go, but I think Damosk is more or less correct...!

To convert it into real money you have to earn 50 FTP which is not an easy task since i use it only in the gold rush and when i know that i have earned the right to play the coin freerolls i quit.
So i don't play very long session enough to get the required FTP know i still have to get a little over 48 FTP to release it. I think i will lose it before.
i only dubble it like yerterday won 2$ for rush then went to 0.2 / 0.5 c took 4$ and out, payed a buyin for 2 tournys of 1$ and got gack to rush game 0.1 / 0.2 c since u cant come back in 0.2/ 0.5 if u dont have the same amount u won. But its better with this system. And one more thing i know is that u dont lose it all if u unlucky and save about 0.40 from that tic - that goes to your account.
As far as I know correct me if I am wrong if you play gold rush with the $2 ring game ticket and double up to $4 leave the table you keep the profit only thing is you have to wait a little bit of time to rejoin the same game with the same ticket as Full tilt will require that you buyin with what you left the table with.

You are right when you quit rush poker with more then your buy in you can't come back with a lesser amount. But i don't really know how long.
And this rule does not apply only to tickets if you are playing with your regular BR it is the same think if you leave and want to come back in a few minutes then you are coming back with the amount you had when you left.
yes u keep the profit but u cant join in the same level of blinds for about 30 minutes maybe more never count it thats why i sad i went from 0.2 / 0.5 to 0.1 / 0.2c

If you are winning, don't give up just because you have got the chance to sign up for the coin freerolls, keep playing as the poker gods are with you. Once you start losing, then walk away and don't worry about having to come back with a big or small buy in, cos you will have done well to take everyone's chips when you walk away.

... < So my ticket is STILL running and is now good until May 4th... I just make sure I leave the game with the full $2 ticket intact,...along with any profits...! That's usually enough to qualify for the next day's Coin Freerolls on the house and then some...
... < ...Actually,...I've raked in about $6 or $7 profit from it... Same with the last one also...!
you got 7 days, every time you play with that ring game ticket the counter resets to another 7 days.
Well it was like this some months ago, I don't know if that still is the case. They are actually quiet good value if you play with it if it would be real dollar, so don't threat it as fake money because then it's a harder challenge to maintain focus of completing it, because you lose the sense of value for that ticket if you tilt the first euro and you have only one left.
