I dont think that all the Fulltilt pros get payed in the same way.
I know for sure that Patrick, Durrr, Ivey and Fergunson have a millions dollar deal per year. I heard its around 3 and 5 millions per year for each. The other fulltilt red pros probably have that deal of %per hour +free rake.

Red pros get $35/hr and 100% rakeback. Some of the bigger named PROs get/got a 1% deal, 1% of FT profit. Plus they all get extra for being on TV and lots of perks like flight, accomadation and BI fees. To become a PRO you just need to be a wining player and have it as your main income.. To get a sponsership you would need the ability to s**t gold, management choose who they think would profitably promote their game and will make diffrent offers to diffrent people. Most people get a offer of somesort after taking down a big tourn.

35$/h? Kinda small for some pros from higher... But i think each of them got other deals... maybe few got same... but. Some of them have "their tables" so i think they got more because of that also.

yeah, i also think, that they make individual deals. But i mean 35$ per hour... Thats just weird. I mean, you only pay the micros for 5 hours a day and you have enough money to live, even if you are the most loosing player in the world

I think its pretty obvious that the pros that play nl5 or nl2 doesnt rece 35dolars hour. Doesntm make anysense. But its possible that the mid stacks pros receive something like that and the high stacks red pros receive even more. I think they have any deal for each stack and for how many tablesa they play.
When Durrr made his contract i heard he was receiving 1% of the profit wich was meaning around 2 millions per year, plus image right and free tournment ticks and some more stuff. No doubt that they make millions in rake to afford to pay millions back to theyr pros.
