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.

Posted under fulltiltpoker.com & online poker & poker

World leading poker site FullTiltPoker.com has recently launched a new bonus giving a minimum of $100 in bonus money to its online poker players just for trying the Full Tilt new poker client.

To get this new bonus, Full Tilt customers just need to earn one point from Full Tilt before July 28th. Players who don’t fulfill the terms are not entitled for the Biggest Bonus Ever offer. Poker players who meet the criteria of this offer will have until 23:59 ET on August 16th to obtain the bonus.

To trigger the bonus, players simply need to open the Full Tilt software, log in and click on the “Cashier” tab in the game lobby, choose the “My Promotions” box in the cashier, choose the Biggest Bonus Ever link in the ‘My Promotions” gateway; this will lead them to a section amplifying the details on how to accept the poker bonus from Full Tilt.

Once Full Tilt players activate their Biggest Bonus Ever, they will have 30 days to release the poker bonus simply by earning Full Tilt points in any real money poker games on the site.

Ring game players will earn one Full Tilt point for each dollar raked from the pot in poker hands where they are dealt cards. Players can gain partial Full Tilt points if less than one dollar is raked, with a max of three Full Tilt points earned per poker hand.

Full Tilt Poker Looking to Host Largest Online Poker Tournament

Posted under fulltiltpoker.com & online poker & poker

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 5th 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.

FullTiltPoker.com and World Poker Tour will Join Forces in TV Deal

Posted under online poker & poker & texas holdem

wpt
The two biggest poker industries around are joining forces presently in what is anticipated to be an enormously successful gamble. The hugely popular poker website FullTiltPoker.com has just announced that they are collaborating with WPT for the following World Poker Tour season. FullTiltPoker.com is on tap to be the key sponsor of the W.P.T.’s TV season, and the Texas Hold’em website is on tap to be highlighted in every single one of the shows which are shown on F.S.N.. Full Tilt Poker will secure all the control of the learning portion of the episodes.

Details of this agreement have not been made known thus far, but the pact is guaranteed to be a winner. This merger will bring together two particularly prominent poker companies. WPT which is an outstanding powerhouse on television due to F.S.N. and Full Tilt which has a massive Texas Hold’em poker fan base, not to mention a poker team containing players who have collected a total of ten W.P.T.E. titles and thirty-five WSOP bracelets. Full Tilt also backs many other Texas Hold’em players and now the Texas Hold’em poker site has begun providing Texas Hold’em poker teaching as well.

This union is certain to lure a brand new set of fans and is guaranteed to meet with the brand new distinction which poker is creating. This merger reveals World Poker Tour Enterprises’ yield of the online poker room market as World Poker Tour Enterprises will shortly close up their Texas Hold’em page World Poker Tour Enterprises online. Their subscription website ClubWPT.com will in all probability continue to run.
