FullTilt introduces Players Club after losing nearly 20% of their traffic

After FullTilt changed how the lobby looked and remove a huge number of games (we reported about it back in the first week of the August) the number of players on the poker room dropped drastically, by around 20% of their total traffic. Things had to be changed fast and FullTilt have already introduced the second part of changes, which is the new vip program, called Players Club.

Full Tilt’s Managing Director Dominic Mansour said about the program: “Players Club is a new take on online poker loyalty programs. Right now, the vast majority of players gain very little benefit from rewards schemes because they primarily reward the players that put in the most volume. We are breaking that mould to ensure that more players receive more rewards and more entertainment than ever before.”

Every player is automatically particiapting in the Players Club and whole idea is mainly focused on a minigame called “The Deal,” which requires special coins, correlated to players Full Tilt Points (FTP). The faster a player earns FTP, the faster he accumulates Coins.

"The Deal" is simple: you pay one Coin and seven cards are dealt face down, then player chooses two to discard and the rest is revealed and form a poker hand. Based on the strength of the hand you win:
Royal flush – chance for The Deal Jackpot (starts at $25,000 and increases by 3 cents every time someone plays The Deal)
Straight flush – $200
Four of a kind – $20
Full house – 1,000 Full Tilt Points
Flush – $2 Ring Game Ticket
Straight – $1 Tournament Ticket
Three of a kind – $1K The Deal Freeroll ticket
Two pair – 1 Coin
One pair – 20% Coin progress
Ace high – $1K The Deal Freeroll satellite ticket
High card – No prize

However, hitting a Royal Flush doesn't guarantee hitting jackpot - if someone hits royal flush, then you roll a prize wheel divided into 8 sections: jackpot, $3,000, $2,000, $1,000, 4 x $500. Landing on the jackpot also grants you ONLY HALF of the actually jackpot, while the other half is redistributed amongst everyone who played The Deal within the past 12 hours.

It seems like the idea behind Players Club will be a hit: almost half a million people played The Deal on the first day according to FullTilt. Nobody hit a Royal Flush though - 7 players had a royal flush but discarded one of the cards they needed.
Besides "The Deal", Players Club also offers other promotions such as special tournaments and prizes for playing on consecutive days.

Full Tilt also modified its existing Edge program, reducing it to just 3 levels and making it way harder to hit for high volume players:
Edge: 30-day rolling average of 80 FTP or 100-day rolling average of 70 FTP; $1 cashback for every 100 FTP
Edge Plus: 30-day rolling average of 250 FTP or 100-day rolling average of 150 FTP; $1.50 cashback for every 100 FTP
Edge Prime: 30-day rolling average of 500 FTP or 100-day rolling average of 400 FTP; $2 cashback for every 100 FTP

20% traffic lost in just a span of a week is insane, I wonder how much of that were the fish and how much regular players.

It seems to be not very profitable in the long run to play those kind of hands. - Gus Hansen
