| No its not that easy, if i play 1/2 NLHE I gotta play an hour to get my 50 points just to qualify for bronze. and then i have to do this 20 days of the month, and for those of us with jobs it hard to play 20 days a month its not as easy as u guys think |
well, if you play two tables you only have to play for a half hour.... and if you play 4 tables you only have to play for 15minutes. So really, thats not to long! |

| OK I get that you can qualify if you play every day, but then its a chore not a game. I dont play 1-2 I was using that as an example, i play 2-4 and 3-6 3-4 tables at a time and earn 1000+ points a day so i was referring to me but in general. If you play only to earn the bonus then you will be losing in the long run anyway. This blog wasnt supposed to be about how to earn ironman status. It was saying that FT should give you more options on spending ironman medals. |

They give you the best possible option (from their point of view): get more medals so you have enough to buy something.  |

| I do buy stuff but when you get over 500 points aday they give you extra IM medals. So I end up with and wierd number of medals. Nothing in IM store to spend spare medals. |

| Fine suggestion bizarroquin, unless the guy is not comfortable playing more than one table at a time. I'm all for multitabling, playing as many as 8 games at once, but it's not for everyone. |
THATS TRUE SOMETIMES TOO MANY TABLES IS A BAD THING |

| FTP devalued the ironman status. It's hard for many working people to get and when we DO get it, we finally realize it wasn't worth it. The money bonus is probably bonus money that you would have to play more to clear like 8 cents at a time and release of 20 dollars each. Tournament tokens and FTPoints are a joke too. I have to work entire month for 5000 FTP points extra? C'mon, what the hell, I'd rather work overtime for a week and earn 50 dollars. Please make ironman status WORTHY for us to reach and put more variety in the ironman store please. Thanks |
