Is Full Tilt Worth it?

#1 10-25-2005, 08:50 PM

On pokerlistings it shows a 100 percent bonus for Full Tilt. Is it worth it or are the games too tough there? I can beat .50/1.00 at most places but 1/2 is unclear as of now. Should I risk it to go get the extra bonus at Full Tilt or would I be better off playing at Party Poker? I may have an extra 300 to put in. I'm at stars, UB, and Caribbean, but I wondered if the thing to do is not try to go fish spearing at Party insteading of taking a chance at FT. I already have gone through the bonus opportunties everywhere else except for Paradise. Let me know too, if you would, if Paradise is a better move.

from what i understand stars & ub have tougher games compared to PartyPoker.

give it a shot. I'm going to play their games 3/6, 5/10 limit.

I wouldn't recommend tackling the Full Tilt bonus until you're playing a minimum of 3/6. It will clear too slowly otherwise.

Full tilt has the best interface by far, but it is a bit tighter, and the bonus takes foreeeeever to clear at the lower limits. Paradise is definitely softer.

Have you seen this link on BR building at the micros?

Full Tilt has much more NL action than limit action.

Their interface is the best out there.
The bonus takes a long time to clear.

Did you already take advantage of the UB reload today?

excellent advice, thank you.

I'll second the advice to wait. I've been playing at Full Tilt for a few months, mostly the $25 and $50 NL and I am about three quarters of the way through clearing it.

Edit--but the software is stable, the interface is good, and if you're playing low level NL the action is decent. It's a good place to play. It also looks like they have a $300 reload every other month.

Check the UB reload thread. A guy did the first time signup then the reload back to back for something like $400 in bonus.

You can increase the value of the Full Tilt bonus by doing it through PSO. The PSO bonus clears very quickly, I did it in less than 2 hours playing $100NL.

The deposit bonus requires quite a bit more work, but you will work some of it off at the same time as the PSO bonus.
