Thoughts on Full Tilt Poker?

[MagicRat]

I've registered but never deposited any $$ there. See they've got 100% bonus up to $600 going through the end of February.

Thoughts on quality of their games, customer service (ease of withdrawals [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]), interface?? I'd probably play $1/2 to clear the bonus. Thanks...

havent been on it in a few months but really liked it when i was, just not enough people so i stuck with a few others. the bonus i hear and read is a real bitch to clear but its still generous. their support is great, the playability is smooth and the nl games are soft. limit games are like rocks though. good luck

In the mornings there is hardly anyone on. The bonus at 1/2 is not worth your time it will take you forever. Take it from someone who was in the trenches. Do all other sites bnous offers before going to this site.

if you play $1/2 limit to clear the bonus, you will clear about 3 cents worth of bonus every raked hand (about 0.5 FTP's), or about 700 hands for every $20 increment released.

there is nothing inherently wrong with the site except for the fact that the bonus is insultingly bad for low limit clearing. you will get better value for your action at virtually any other site.

The low limit games are rock gardens and the bonus blows. Not worth it IMO.

I played there for a while. The bonus is very hard to clear. Though they release it in increments, or at least did. NL is pretty soft. I played 1/2 limit and didn’t like it very much, lots of tight players. Id imagine even more now that the 100% bonus started. Actually I did best playing against the pros there. If you can get in the right position, lots of guys make bad bets at them (I guess to stay I bluffed out so and so or I took down so and so for a big pot), obviously you don’t want to play the pro that often, but their presence in like the 3/6 nl game definitely helped.

I haven't played there. Downloaded the software and took a look.

When I requested a hand history I got something like "Coming soon." Does that mean they do not have hand histories or was I just not able to see it as an observer or what?

[Synergistic Explosions]

I can't play there because I picked the wrong screen name when I joined. The bitterness I received while sitting at a table was immense and unbearable, all because of the name.

I can't be jovial at a table when insults are hurled my way every second or two. I have learned to always choose a screen name carefully now.

[tdarko]

just curious what was the screenname? i am not easily offended.
