Has FT accomodated non-rakeback players yet?

I've been busy lately, working full time, and not keeping up with the online poker world. I would like to try heads up on Full Tilt because I hear their turbos go by much quicker, I'm sick of my 25 min turbo matches on Stars, but I don't have rakeback so I've always refused to play on a site that's not rewarding me in a way that's at least equal to Stars. Has anything changed? While I've rarely used my current FT account and have never cashed out, I certainly don't want to run the risk of creating another one one and get dinged for multi-accounting.

Have any solutions presented themselves lately?

Take care,

Corey

You can email rakebackpros,

You can email rakebackpros, they are the only people that can really retag a FTP account once it has played for real money.

Email support on FTP first, see if they can do anything, they will likely refer you to rakeback pros.

If you're interested in any other sites that are good for husngs, just go our rakeback page here, rakeback.husng.com for the best deals on many sites.

Thanks, Ry. Would love to

Thanks, Ry. Would love to sign up for Rakeback through husng.com at some point - problem is many poker sites still do not have Mac clients :(

I believe a few Cake skins

I believe a few Cake skins do now.

Most pokerrooms require you

Most pokerrooms require you to run an emulator. However, LOCKPOKER has a dedicated Mac client, and is part of the Cake network.

If you signed up for FTP through another affiliate than FTP/rakebackpros, then there is 0% chance you'll ever get rakeback. For 2 years now, they promised an alternative, but it's not gonna happen.

Also, if your turbo matches on Stars take 25min on average, you're clearly doing it wrong...no offense ;)

I play on Cake, and their turbos have the same structure. My average game length is 11min.

Radeh, my matches frequently

Radeh, my matches frequently go into 50/100 and 75/150 blinds -- so maybe I am?

That's great news about Lock

That's great news about Lock Poker having a Mac client. What are the HUSNGs like on Cake?

Cake husngs are fairly soft

Cake husngs are fairly soft I believe, probably a little more so than FTP or Stars.

The action gets lower as you approach the $100 level and higher, from what I hear from Cake regulars.

If you want to sign up on Cake, let me know.  I'll make sure there aren't any other Cake clients that are Mac compatable if you'd like to sign up through husng.com to give yourself a chance at earning a free subscription every month.

Rakeback AND free HUSNG

Rakeback AND free HUSNG subscription? That would be impossible for me to turn down. Come on Cake, where's your Mac software!

Cake has good action up to

Cake has good action up to $55, after that it slows down a bit during off-peak hours. But as Ry said, the games are quite soft. The players seem a lot more passive than PS/FTP players too overall...but my sample size at <1k games is still kinda small.

At the $105+, I always seem the same names, and a lot of them are winning players. Having said that, I started railing a few of them because I wanna move up eventually, and they really aren't as good as some of the better regs on PS imo. Obviously railing and playing someone isn't the same though ;)
