Site Traffic:
The site traffic at FullTilt Poker is very good, and finding cash games or tournaments at any level
is never a problem.
Sit & Go Tournaments are offered up to $5,500 buy in, and heads up is easy
to find up to $2,200. Single table Sit & Go's (6 and 9 player) are also offered up to a $5,000 buy
in and are readily available up to the $1,000 range.
Cash games are available up to $500/$1000, and
games at levels of $100/$200 are not uncommon. You can even wait for Phil Ivey to come around and play the "Death
Match" at blind levels of $500/$1000.
Player Competition:
Because the player base is so large you will find all kinds of players at the tables. From Pro's to weekend
warriors, to the rich kid just giving away money to play with the big boys. If you are at least a mediocre player success
is an option at FullTilt Poker. Be careful though, at levels above $2/$4 the competition is fierce. FullTilt has
attracted some of the best players from around the world, and it is very common to sit at a table next to a professional.
Rewards:
FullTilt offers a good rewards program in the form
of FullTilt Points which can be exchanged for cash, merchandiseand tournament entries. FullTilt also has the Iron
Man Challenge, where if you qualify you are entered into freeroll tournaments once a month where a single player has the opportunity
to win over $100,000. You also receive "Iron Man" medals which also can used for cash, merchandise or
tournament entries. To qualify for the Iron Man to must play on almost a daily basis, so if you already do FullTilt
is a good site as the Iron Man Promotion is a great value.
Other Features:
A nice feature at FullTilt is their Multi-Table Tournament entry structure. The majority of their larger tournaments
require a $24 or $69 buy-in, so if you play qualifiers you receive a "token" for the value of the tournament entry
fee. This is nice as you can use the "token" for any tournament you wish to play. You are not obligated
to play the tournament in which your qualifier was scheduled for. This eliminates wasted entries if you are unable to
play, or those late nights of marathon poker winning a satellite with the main event starting right after.
Another
nice feature is the ability to make withdraws directly into your checking account. An added bonus is once you do
make a withdraw by this method, FullTilt then allows deposits made by echeck directly from your bank account and funds are
available immediately for no fee.
Summary:
In general,
FullTilt Poker is a great poker site and is highly recommened. The site will only continue to grow, as it offers a
great variety of games at all levels, for every kind of player.
