    I have played at least 50 mtts and sngs so far in November but i just checked my rakeback stats and it says that i have earned -.15 for November... Any ideas why this would be happening. I am playing on full tilt and it does say on my rake back page that i am "linked in"

    Hi there,

    Full Tilt deducts a number of things from your MGR (Net Rake) including the following:

    Deposit and Withdrawal Fees

    Bonuses cleared

    Tournament overlays and/or added money

    FTP Points Spent ($5 per 1,000 points)

    It's deducted from your overall rake numbers, so 27% of that is deducted from rakeback earnings. If this information still doesn't clear it up, send me a PM with your username and I can check out the specifics.

    If you released $5 in bonus, it would deduct $5 from your MGR ($1.35 from your rakeback earnings). If you made your deposit to get the bonus, there would likely be a deduction based on that. Send me a PM with your username, and I'll let you know exactly what the deductions are.

    thanks for the help, that all makes sense. I just started grinding again building a bank roll from 50 and ive never had a rakeback. It is definitely functioning correctly.

    Wait, so since I have negative rakeback, it will take money OUT of my account on Friday? Seriously?

    No, absolutely not. You will have a negative rakeback balance rolling forward. So for instance, if you have -$5 in rakeback one week, and then the next week you earn positive $10, you'd only get $5 in rakeback the next week.
