Full Tilt Poker News and Updates

Overview-

Full Tilt Poker is one of the famous poker websites available today. The site features some of the top poker professional players as a part of their team such as Gus Hansen and Viktor “Isildur1” Blom. With a galaxy of stars, excellent players’ benefits and first-rate software and service, Full Tilt Poker is one of today’s hottest online poker sites.

The well-known site had to suffer because of the infamous Black Friday incident in the poker world, which in turn ended up closing the site in 2011. The only way to get out of it was if some sort of corporate entity purchased it, repaying its non-US players in full and re-launching the site. After a long exhausting struggle, PokerStars came to the rescue and acquired the operation and re-launched it successfully in November 2012. And this is how the Full Tilt Poker made a remarkable comeback and retained its reputation and popularity.

Software and Security

Full Tilt Poker has always employed the best software for their users. Even before its closure, the site had a large number of professional players as its users. And even after the re-launch of the site in 2012, the software which is in use today is the same one with few modification and is stronger than ever. So, it won’t be wrong to say that Full Tilt still stands today as one of the strongest and user friendly online poker rooms.

Apart from its exclusive features like multi-entry tournaments, multi-tabling, high quality graphics, better game sound etc. the site also offers first of its kind, fast-folding poker game known as Rush Poker. The site is appealing, intuitive, easy to use, stable and fast. That’s the only reason why it has emerged as one of the leading destinations for online poker cash games.The site believes in fair game play which is also evident from the fact that a large number of professional players endorse it and spend their countless hours playing here.

Promotions

Full Tilt Poker offers 100% sign-up bonus for its new users. The poker room offers handsome bonus packages for both freeroll as well cash game players. However, in order to redeem their bonus money, players have to play in cash games where they generate poker rake only then their bonus cash is transferred to their real money account. Their unique feature of online transfers possible between PokerStars and FTP enables old players from the former site to avail the 100% deposit bonus as well.

Beside this, $35K guarantee, Big Money Sundays, Double Deuce etc. are some of the lucrative tourneys organized by Full Tilt on weekly/monthly basis. There are all sorts of freerolls, guaranteed prize pool events, qualifiers to live poker tournaments and major online events like FTOPS.

Customer Support

Full Tilt Poker’s customer support used to be slow earlier but after its re-launch their services have improved dramatically. But the major drawback of the site is that it offers only e-mail support and no live chat feature. However, if a player has monetary issue or problem with deposit, then s/he is given a phone number to contact further. There is also a comprehensive FAQ section in their Help and Support Center, which can clarify most common queries or issues of players.

Though Full Tilt Poker offers good customer services, it lacks the personal touch. However, email response from the company is fast and very professional, usually providing answers within minutes.
