Probably the first things Full Tilt players will see is a new welcome page boasting a brand new modern appearance as well as a few brand new aspects such as a list of random security guidelines displayed on the bottom of the screen. Full Tilt new client software gives players 3 distinct lobby views: Basic, Standard and Classic View.

The Basic View provides new poker players with the possibility of catching up with the new poker client and viewing the games without the demands of participating. The Basic View provides step by step reports on all the existing poker games, and gives players the ability to decide on their currency, type of game, Game (Hold’em, Omaha Hi or HL, Stud and Mixed Games), Limit (Fixed, Pot or No Limit), and Stake. In addition poker players can now check the action before joining a poker table with the new “Observe Table” choice or click on “Browse Table to view the list of open tables.

The Standard View offers information about all the available poker games and allows poker players to modify the list of poker games and tables to present only the poker games of their preference. This option also offers players the possibility of choosing the type of table, poker game, stake and view the tables before jumping in the poker action.

Customers can also opt for the Classic view and stay with Full Tilt Poker’s initial lobby, however, this choice will be accessible for a limited time only and will be terminated shortly.

Both the Basic and Standard views also features a series of pioneering characteristics such as new revolving graphic screen located on the left that provides customers direct entry to FullTiltPoker’s promos and events including the FTOPS, Iron Man, Play with the Pros, Full Tilt Poker Academy, Poker Deposit Bonuses, and many other poker promotions and Full Tilt Poker Tournaments, as well as an option for video that allows players to view videos directly from the Full Tilt Poker client.

Full Tilt Poker will attempt to stamp its name on the Guinness Records and to do so; the site has announced that it will try to set a new record for the Largest Online Poker Tournament. Full Tilt’s Record Breaker tournament was unveiled as the finale to FIVE, a week of events and promotions created exclusively to celebrate the site’s 5^th anniversary. The tournament will take place on July 19th at 15:05ET, players can buy in for this event for only $5 or 1000 Full Tilt Points and compete for a share of a $250,000 guaranteed with $250,000 added prize pool. Players can also get entries to this event by playing the online satellites available on the site and starting for as little as 30 cents or 50 Full Tilt Points.

Team Full Tilt pros and WSOP bracelet winners Howard Lederer, Chris Ferguson and Phil Ivey have already confirmed they will take part in the event, offering players the chance to sit down at this historic tournament and play with some of the best high stakes and tournament pros in the world.

“By extending the limits of what is possible in online poker tournaments, Full Tilt Poker will allow players to compete for a big payout without the big buy-in,” said Team Full Tilt member Howard Lederer.

Putting together a poker tournament of this magnitude would be nearly impossible for any brick and mortar casino or poker room. The current record for the largest “live” poker tournament was set at the 2006 WSOP Main Event with 8,772 players. To break the current Guinness Record set by PokeStars.com in December, 2008, Full Tilt Poker will need to attract over 35.000 players. If successful, this tournament will establish Full Tilt Poker as World Record holder and cement its reputation as a world leader in online poker industry.
