Full Tilt Poker
Description
Full Tilt Poker is a very well know and ambitious poker room.
They have a large number of world-class poker pro endorsers (among others
Howard Lederer, Phil Ivey, John Juanda, Chris Ferguson and Erik Seidel).
These pros can be seen playing at the site from time to time.
Play is focused on the lower no-limit games and on scheduled tournaments.
The software is good, with a different look and feel – not as advanced as some other software in the business though.
Traffic is pretty good and growing steadily, around 9.000 cash game players and 60.000 tournament players at peak hours.

Software score: 3.5
Full Tilt Poker's software have a different look and feel. Each player can choose a cartoon avatar (or have their own custom made), which can display different emotions. The software runs well and reliably. The statistics function is OK.
A particularly great feature is the possibility to rearrange the players at the table, so your avatar can be shown in any place around the table – great
when playing at more tables at once.
All in all the software is fairly nice.
Bonus/loyalty program score: 3.0
Points program where you earn Full Tilt Points that can be used for merchandise and for entering tournaments.

than 100 WSOP seats away for free.
Tournaments score: 3.5
Tournaments are mainly qualifyers to landbased events such as WSOP. Regular scheduled tournaments a little less interesting . Tournament traffic of around 60.000 players at peak time.
Cash game score: 3.0
Players at FullTiltPoker are for some reason very focused at low stakes no-limit Holdem and other games can be difficult to get started. Traffic around 2.300 at peak time.
The competition is actually quite hard with many good players. So be carefull if you are new to poker.
