What are FPPs?
Players who receive free cash bonuses in the above tournaments should know that they must play through their bonuses. While the money is free, they must play poker on the site to earn that money in cashback bonus increments.
Frequent player points are automatically tallied based on players’ action. For every $1 in tournament fees paid, they receive seven FPPs, and for every $1 paid in Fast Fortune fees, they also receive seven FPPs. For cash game rake, every $1 paid equals one FPP for every player who is dealt into the hand.
Double FPP days help players earn those points at double the speed. FPP days are currently listed as:
- July 4-6
- July 9-11
- July 15-17
What are Fast Fortune Tournaments?
During Poker Patriots Week, players can also earn Fast Fortune tickets. Those are three-handed SNGs that play out at an accelerated structure format. Players buy in for a certain amount, and the prize pool is then randomly calculated to equal 2x each tournament buy-in or all the way up to 1000x that buy-in.
The buy-ins for Fast Fortune games start at just $0.25 and go up to $1, $5, and $10.
