Yeah I am curious about this

Yeah I am curious about this one as well, I am working may way through one of FTP's rare bonue offers at the momet ahn I am pretty sure it is going to get deducted from my rakeback, is this the same for spending FTP points etc?

 turned some of my ftp

 turned some of my ftp points into a 26$ tournie ticket last night in a single table sng, might use that on one of the mini ftops that are coming up although im not sure i have the attention span to play the long MTTs.

Im still in the baby stakes so no getting much in the way of rakeback but i think they have been taking the bonus out of their judging by the negative figures for this week.

Best use of iron man medals

Best use of iron man medals is the 3000 medal $600 bonus. Best use of Full Tilt points by far is the $750k guaranteed on Sundays(you can buy in directly with points) which on top of having the best value also won't hit your MGR. If you don't want to wait that long, then generally speaking buying into tournaments is going to be your best value.

I agree with SCW - the point

I agree with SCW - the point buyins are a great way to go.  I have spent a lot of mine on TV's, jerseys, iPods, etc and always like getting those too.  But its even better to turn one of those buyins into $10k+  :)

..

The EU-Electronic-Shop has only crap. I also dont want to spend my points on tourneys, cause i feel i´m already playing enough poker and more than that sunday is family time. Maybe i will get myself a custom avatar. 500k more points to go :)

 my ears are too big for

 my ears are too big for that, if i had one i would never be able to play anything other than heads up as i would never be able to see the villains sitting next to me.

 Sooo close but yet so far,

 Sooo close but yet so far, used the 26$ ticket for miniftops 25 for my first donkament, finished 840ish out of 16800 and took a few knockouts along the way... my A9 went down to A4 in the end so nice to get a typical heads up suck out after 5 odd hours of play :)

Let myself down at the high anti play as its not really something im familiar with but no great shakes, pretty happy overall
