Full Tilt Poker has been the #1 online poker room for me for as long as I can remember. Its growth has been amazing for the past few years, now being in a tight competition for the online poker room with second highest traffic in the world. I think FullTiltPoker.com is going to reach the second place soon.
They've done a great job in marketing, and their Team Full Tilt which is full of poker's superstars draws a lot of interest ("Play with the Pros"). Players in the team include Phil Ivey, Jennifer Harman, Mike Matusow, Chris Ferguson and about twenty other well-known poker pros. FullTiltPoker.com accepts U.S. players. When you sign-up, use my Full Tilt Poker Referral Code: PSTACTICS.
Full Tilt Poker Review
"Play with the Pros"... so if all those professional poker players play here, this software must be really good? Necessarily, no, in this case, YES. This isn't a fact or anything, we all have our own opinions but on this website, I'm expressing my beliefs and opinions. I think Full Tilt Poker's got the best poker room software in the world. If you asked me where to go if you want to play on the best online poker room in the world, FullTiltPoker.com would be the answer.
The lobby & software as a whole has been designed by Tiltware LLC, where Chris Ferguson is a co-owner. Poker pros have definitely been there in the development process of this software, it's just quite obvious. No other poker rooms have never really been so comfortable to play with. It's a great, top-quality software.
They've created a unique approach to online poker - cartoon avatars. While this might sound kind of a joke, well, amazingly it really fits well. These avatars can actually be messed with by switching their moods (there are 4 different moods for them). You can switch the avatars off in case they irritate or distract you.
The look of Full Tilt Poker software is very clean. You'll be able to set yourself to whatever seat you would like to, and you can set different kinds of background (although there's no possibility to create your own). Bet, Fold, Call and Raise buttons are well placed. Playability all in all is close to perfect at FullTiltPoker.com (I don't know what could be made better). There must be something, though.
Visit FullTiltPoker.com
You can find the important features such as table stats, player stats and player notes. There's a possibility of marking other players with different colours, although I don't know if that's very useful. Sure, you can mark someone with blue so you know he's a fish, but that doesn't really help too much.
FullTiltPoker.com's game selection includes following games: Texas Holdem (No-limit, Pot-limit and Fixed limit), Omaha (Pot-limit, Fixed limit, No-limit) and Omaha Hi/lo with same variants, plus Seven Card Stud & Stud Hi/lo, Razz, HA (Pot-limit Hold'em and Pot-limit Omaha) and HORSE. Their games are the highest online.
A lot of praise should go to their game lobby. It's very, very easy for navigation and clear in all the ways. You'll find what you're looking for quite easily. And if you can't find your friend for some reason, use their "find a player" feature where you enter player's name and press 'find'. You'll see a list of cash game tables and tournaments this player is currently playing at. A great way to find fishes, too.
Only truly negative thing about them is their support - actually the lack of it. It takes too long to get answers for e-mails, and since there are no phone lines, it's quite frustrating to wait for hours or even days to get an answer to something urgent.
I want to end this Full Tilt Poker review by saying that this is the best online poker room in the world for me, and I'm sure you won't be disappointed by signing up.
