| I haven't seen a 3X happy hour either. They probably just haven't run those yet. |

I'd love them to start running 3x. I'm bound to get sick of grinding out FTPs in .05/.10 tables for hours on end until I can get what I want from the store.
Off topic: Sure it makes sense for them to only sell items for FTPs (6000 FTP item = $6000 in rake for them), but for the players like me who just want a couple of freakin' plastic decks, it's a huge pain in the ass. :/ |

You can buy FT points in the Player Tranactions section for about $5/1k.
Visit those forums for more info. |

6000 FTP does not equal $6000 in rake. For every dollar in rake full tilt earns, EVERY player at the table receives a FTP, so at a full 9 man table, 9 FTPs are given for a dollar in rake.
Basically, when you collect x amount of FTPs, there are up to 8 other players collecting that same amount of FTPs for $x of rake.
Anyway, as for the OP, i did notice this happy hour promotion is running until the end of the year 2008. I would imagine the 3x full tilt points will start popping up eventually. |

Dude, regardless of other players, when YOU have accumulated 6k points, FT has received 6k in rake. From one single players perspective, 6k points = $6k. It's not a direct exchange, I know. What I meant was that, by the time you get 6000 points, you've "witnessed" FT raking a total of $6000. |
