Posted by schmoyster: This is by far my favorite promo on FullTilt. I was always very successful in it. Today's session took only around 15 minutes. I played from my office computer during a boring conference call. 6 tables of NL10, 8+ FPPs, 5 $ profit.
------------
Posted by B1gfoot: What its 2 points a day?? Is it not normally 10
5 points. They demand 5 points when the bonus amount is 25 $ and 10 points when the bonus amount is 50 $
You can earn only $5 + additional $20 = total amount $25 Take2 promo (you need to earn at least 5 points each day: within 5 days or + within 9 days of 10 days promo).

hajinho i saw youre saying that you are not ready for making any deposits, yet you have money on fulltilt and you play with that money (money from freerolls) The thing is that in order to cash out you need to make a deposit first (if fulltilt is like most of the sites i know of). so why not making a deposit since you play and clear the 100% match deposit bonus they give? you are winning points by playing and you will win points by playing in take 2 for at least 9 days, so these points getting wasted (i mean you could do them all at once, and take 2 and deposit bonus)

it´s a really good offer from FT. I got only 17$ but u can take the 25$ with ur 8$ without a problem. 2 tables a 0.01/0.02 is enough. I play omaha hi on this limit and reach the first 5 points i think in 30-40min´s with 1$ profit i don´t take a look on the clock. had played before now 2 weeks after a cashout with only 1,8$ and Bankroll was everytime between 2-5$ 0.01/0.02 cent omaha hi for these offer i have deposit 10€ to start a new good bankroll with a min.deposit. Think when u can play good omaha that is an easy offer. I play only a day to reach the 5 points so i got not a great risk to lost much money gl all

Please, read the first post above by @Hajinnho
There is no such at the moment. But once in a while FT has a big Take 2 promo, when you need to clear 10 points every day and you need to play 15 or 20 days (I can't remember). The reward is 50 $. I remember I cleared this bonus some time last year.
PS Googled the info. Looks like this bigger Take 2 promo runs every year in September. You need to play for 25 days in a row to clear it.

oh don´t worry. i already made a deposit (and a withdraw) at FullTilt. But by now i just dont wanna make a deposit, iw ant a fast cashout as i have lot of costs running in the next days.
So what i am tryining to do is clearing the Take 2 Promo. Even if it would blast my bankroll away that would be a profit Btw i am trying this with Fixed imit Holdem (and some times i plkay some Sit&Go Heads-ups super turbo.
Everything is fine for the moment. As i told i began with zero $ winning about 8 in the freeroll. My bankroll is now around 21$ and the first day is cleared... Next to come But first : have a good night.

Hajinnho, is this only for RUSH and Ring Games or are the SnG's involved also. I'm not familiar with the ring games and don't play RUSH, but SnG's are my favorite. I was reading some of the info in FT, but it sounds like it's more for the RUSH and Ring's. Maybe I'm misinterpreting some of the literature or do not understand it. Any advice!

Unfortunately for you, this Take2 promo is relating only to RUSH POKER and/or Ring Games. Besides, if you'd like to achieve the target playing some Ring Games (not RUSH), then you must to play at least 2 cash tables at the same time - this is a primary condition in order to earn FTP points for Take2. Good luck!

Posted by Pjot: This seems to be quite an easy promo to clear! (And fun, I haven't played rush poker since last summer, when I overdosed on it.)
From what I understand this is not the first Take2 promo. I should read my mail a bit better, missing out on such easy money...
For that i just opened the thread. Thought would be nice to remind you cause it is quite easy money. I mean at least for traditionell cash gamers. I am pretty sure for sng players it is possible to easyly (?) loose so many stacks, that those 25$ won´t be +ev. And if the promo works good i hope FT will continue it again and again

sounds good.
For the 6-max cashgamers (if we have any) i just found out that the Take 2 counter even works when i play shorthanded. I am pretty confused by that, because i thought it is for FullRing only, but as it seems even 6max tables work.

Í completely forgot about it again, and last night at 02:00 in the morning as i was going to sleep...it hit me! Take 2!!
So i logged in and played some Ring games for once. Haven´t played cash since ..pfff...maybe when I started, well over a year and a half ago?
Except for Rush. Played that the last 2- times for the Take 2 promo, and ended up losing more than I got from the Promo. Outside of it being VERY addictive, the ups and downs are too crazy for me, so I´m staying FAR away from the Rush tables. (probably not in a couple of days, too curious, was fun, really kinda sucks... )
Anyway, tried lowest limits because I never play Ring. NL2 what I realised after a while is that i can easyliy multi.table 4 Ring games! I usually screw up when i try that with Sn´G´s and Tourneys together. 3 is usually my limit.
Went all-in in the first 5 min. and lost my buy-in on the first table. lol Too many tourneys.... then i settled down, opened 4 tables, and played for an hour or so.
$4 buy-in, $8 cashout, 7 points. This was really kinda fun.
So now, I´m going to move up to NL5. (I know that sounds lame for the real cash players, but hey, this plays way different when you´re used to tournaments and SnG´s). So I´m going to move up carefully.

Awesome promo indeed . . . for Rush grinders like me without rakeback, it's a must to not only sign up for it, but participate every day. I will easily get the $25, but the double Full Tilt points are the real bonus here. I use the points for big tourney buy-ins, and it's a lot easier when I can make 120 a day instead of 60!

yeah, if you really do make so many points this is really a bonus. For me it doesnt matter at all.
I just make around 20 points a day at the moment as i am playing the really lowest limit micros. The additional points by the Take 2 promo are around 10 a day. On good days I also get around 5 points because of Happy Hour.
So i doesnt really make a difference for me. The only intresting tickets for that low rolls would be the little big tournament (2.29$ 200K guar.) or the Step 1 (3.30$) because if you go 4 out of 6 there you get around 2.50. So you make somekind of rakeback deal out fo your points that way
But today worked out really good. My bankroll today is like a rocket. I am with 34$ for the moment. Today it is one week since i had no single dollar. I might beat Fergusons Challenge
btw, Island Jack: It doesnt make a huge difference whether you play 2 or 4 tables as only the two most profitable ones count. The other two tables doesn´t.

Well, if you started with just $ 8 and now have $40 I guess thats doing fine. This is 500% improvement of your bankroll Do you made the money in the ring games ?

mostly i played FL 05/10c FR and SH. But i also played some FL 1.20$ 6-Players SnG. And finally i played some SnG HUs Superturbo. But mostly Cashgame Fixed Limit. They are really nuts if you play really tight.
Hope today I can go some further and clear the third day of Take 2. The first 5$ are near than.
