Summary (Rated 8 out of 10)
Since launching in July of 2004 Full Tilt Poker has been an unavoidable name for any poker fan. Having attracted an impressive number of poker pro endorsements, this is a poker room with big ambition and, more importantly, big standards to back it up. A combination of the best selection of games on the internet, Huge player pools, High quality customer service, and generous bonuses make Full Tilt one of the elite online poker rooms today.
Players earn FTP Points the fastest via Sit N’ Go Tournaments - at a rate of 7 FTP Points / $1 tournament fee paid.

Game Selection (Rated 9 out of 10)
Full Tilt offers a huge variety of games catering to everyone from the high-roller to the free-roller. No limit hold’em daily tournaments range from free up to as much as $1000 buy-ins but with the vast majority in the $4 to $69 range. Of these almost all are satellites to larger prize guarantee tournaments including many to the World Series itself. Available sit-and-go games cover a similar range in depth of pocket, as well as offering the full scope of game types including 7-card stud and Omaha (both available HI/LO), limit hold’em, HORSE, and razz.
This versatility makes Full Tilt Poker a good choice for players with any range of experience and financial clout. A higher standard of player can develop their online game in every imaginable aspect, utilizing the single, multi-table, or heads-up formats at whatever stakes most suits them. Good players with shallow pockets are given an abundance of opportunity to play for large prizes through satellites, while a rookie isn’t entirely excluded with around seven freeroll daily tournaments. Even the more busy of us has options with NL hold’em turbo available.

Quality of Players (Rated 9 out of 10)
The quality of players of Full Tilt has to be considered pretty high. Of course, as is inevitable with any site, there is a range and some softer opponents can be found but in general Full Tilt is a place where you can practice and improve rather than make a killing. Low stakes sit-and-go’s and daily tournaments are often of a lower standard than the site in general but yet still presents a higher standard of competition than sites like Party Poker. Cash games can also be a softer spot, where some patience and close observation can be enough to be successful, yet even here the chances of coming up against solid players is relatively high.
As you would expect, the higher you climb the ladder in terms of buy-ins the higher the general standard of player is. One factor which confuses this rule slightly at Full Tilt is the chance of playing a poker pro celebrity such as Phil Ivey, John Juanda, Jennifer Harman, or Chris Ferguson, among others. Any game in which one of these pros is participating will likely have drawn a wide variety of players including novices, despite the often higher stakes games at which they play. Also, away from the NL hold’em tables, usually a profitable place for a more all-round player is not such a sure thing and should once again be seen as a place to learn rather than win.
back to top
Software (Rated 9 out of 10)
Full Tilt's software is yet another aspect of the site which puts it near the top of the industry. Download and installation are smooth and simple with everything else from there on in pretty well matching. Locating the various games and maneuvering between them is quick and easy, as is finding and using the different options at the cashier, something which certain other sites seem determined to hide. In-game aspects of the software are similarly good, with the cards quickly dealt, chips promptly dispersed, and table shifting at multi-table tournaments cleanly managed. In fact, tournament management in general is top notch including very well-judged blind structures.
The main user interface for the site allows for simple navigation to any required game as well as easy access to tournament lobbies, from where information regarding prizes and players can again be easily obtained. All the usual, basic conveniences are available on Full Tilt, such as player and tournament finding, internet game guides and support, and a very useful note-taking capability for each opponent. Hand histories are available as well, adding to the site’s usefulness as a learning tool. Full Tilt are also regularly updating their software, though never allowing this to become an annoyance for users.
back to top
Graphics (Rated 8 out of 10)
The graphics on Full Tilt Poker lean toward a more cartoonish, fun sensibility rather than the more realistic or atmospheric graphics of Party Poker or Ultimate Bet, though again this is never achieved at the expense of usability or convenience. The main interface is colorful and easily navigable, using color coding for the various tournaments, with regulars in black, play money in blue, as well as distinguishing between the various satellites with, for example, WSOP satellites in orange. Headings for access to daily tournaments, sit-and-go’s, as well as the various game types are large and clear and within that it is possible to manipulate how the information is organized.
Table graphics also achieve this balance between practicality and fun. Each player has the choice between forty-five avatars of varying sanity, each of which can then change to one of four expressions during play. Similarly, backgrounds can be changed enabling you to play anywhere from Las Vegas to the middle of a jungle. If this all gets a little annoying though the option is always available to hide avatars and move to a blank setting. Despite all these accessories though there is never a risk of confusing the actual play with cards large and clear, chip amounts and movements obvious, and the course of action always decipherable.
back to top
Profitability (Rated 7 out of 10)
In terms of profitability, Full Tilt Poker is both better and worse in certain ways than other comparable sites. On the upside they offer the best sign-up bonus around of 100% up to $600, thereby helping out a bankroll which can be put to use in a huge variety of ways, allowing each player the opportunity to take advantage of whatever is most likely profitable for them. On the other hand, gaining the full bonus can often be like squeezing blood from a stone and the high standard of opponent make any sort of consistent winning very difficult.
While the lure of a 100% bonus cannot be overlooked it does require what equates to a mammoth amount of playing time in order for the full bonus to be released. This can be a little frustrating, although it is offset to some degree by the awarding of Full Tilt Points which should eventually lead to admittance into some minor tournaments. These tournaments among others often offer as prizes $26 or $75 satellite tokens, therefore creating yet more backdoor opportunities. Full Tilt Points can also be put towards various other promotions such as their Iron Man or WSOP promotions, although, as with everything else here, big investments of time and money are usually required. As far as gaining significant profit from regular cash game and tournament play Full Tilt Poker should be looked to as a site for sharpening skills, not filling wallets. Consider playing at Full Tilt Poker to drastically improve your game and alternate playing there with sites with much fishier players – perhaps Pacific Poker, Titan Poker or CDPoker. It’ll feel like walking on land after sprinting on a treadmill. Or like sipping a Bud Light after chugging a Guinness. Or something like that!

I think that FullTiltPoker is one of the best sites in the internet. Many players, bunch of different games and very good support. The only thing which might be improved in my opinion is that there aren't many encouraging tournaments for low stakes players with a 5$ to 10$ buyin.

After playing at small poker rooms, Full Tilt Poker was indeed a refreshing experience. Having tens of thousands of players online it definitely wasn't difficult to find a suitable table there! I did have some trouble in the very beginning connecting to Full Tilt, but everything eventually worked very smoothly. Full Tilt offers Hold'em tables for maximum of nine players, they don't have ten player tables. I was able to earn the required points to earn the SavvyPoints bonus after only a few intensive sessions, even though I played at the smallest no-limit tables! Very positive experience overall!

Software: I played about 100 $2+0.25 Sit'n'Go tournaments. I really like their software. Nice graphics. Ability to change the layout of table. Big, well placed buttons so it's really hard to make a mis-click. The sound that plays when you have to make a decision is really helpful.
Competition: Hmm... I just played $2+0.25 Sit'n'Goes, so it's no high stakes. I made about $45 profit. I can say the competition at the $2 Sit'n'Goes is medium/low. I didn't try any cash games cause I heard that Full Tilt has some of the highest level of players, even at the lowest stakes. Really good software, nice graphics, I really like it. Have fun and good luck!

The software and graphics are very good. You can choose from an assortment of very fun avatars and you can change their facial expressions (angry, happy, sad, etc.) Quick customer support and a high level of security. No problems with such a big room. Many, many players at all stakes, especially in the cash games. But the skill level of players is tougher than average. This bonus is a big one, but it could be a long way to completing it in small to medium stakes games.

Full Tilt Poker, in my opinion, is the easiest bonus at PokerSavvy. To get the required points it took me only two days of playing (something like three hours per day), playing at $0.10/0.20 no-limit Hold'em tables. Easy promo for many SavvyPoints!!

I was introduced to Full Tilt Poker as a room without loose players. I was prepared to play in such a game, but instead I found a room with crazy players and drunk dealers. I got very good cards pre-flop all the time and it was very difficult to play against the crazy players who go "all in" with 67o and regularly ended up with a straight or flush. I lost a lot of money, and I said farewell to Full Tilt. Anyway, I fulfilled the PokerSavvy bonus requirements in two days of playing, all at medium-stakes cash tables. Full Tilt reported that I had completed the PokerSavvy bonus within 3 days and I have to admit that Full Tilt is one of the best organized poker rooms, with probably the best software.

Watch out for this site. The players are really good! While the requirements are very, very easy to clear (I cleared it in half a day), you can expect to be playing tough games throughout (I ended up bing $360 down after I was done completing the requirements...) Other than the difficult players, the avatars are horrible, though the mini-view was attractive. In fact, everything else is quite good about this site, but the difficulty of the players makes me give it a two-star rating.

Full Tilt is a fun site to play at. The software is fast, colorful, and you can choose the layout which suits you best. The SavvyPoints were easy to get, playing $50 max buy-in no-limit Hold'em at three full ring tables did it in like, five to six hours for me. Their deposit bonus is not the easiest one, but not the hardest either. Also, it is released in increments of $20. There were some bad players at my tables, so at these stakes you'll find good action. Definitely worth playing.

Full Tilt has the best user interface besides PokerStars and Party Poker. The tables are resizeable and you can also multi-table very easily. The quality of the players is better than on most of the other sites, especially in the medium-stakes Sit'n'Go tournaments I am playing. However, the SavvyPoints bonus is very easy to clear because with tournaments you only have to pay about $30 in entry fees.

Full Tilt is one of the most exciting poker sites, but you need skills! There are a lot of tables and variation in the limits. 6-player max tables are quite nitty or rocky, so you have to slowdown. I haven't seen one donkey at the tables. Software is fast and looks good. Service is good and if you are card dead, just chill back and watch Phil Ivey and company at the high-stakes tables!
Good bonus, great service!

Good poker room if you like bonuses. The skill level of players is not very high. On the negative side, in the lobby you can't choose to see only tables with certain betting limits.
Some advice on depositing: Full Tilt's own bonus gets released in 10% steps. It is a good idea to make a deposit that matches the SavvyPoints bonus to a release of some of your bonus from Full Tilt. For example, depositing $120 will get you $12 from Full Tilt when you reach the 200 Full Tilt points to clear the SavvyPoints bonus.

This site is probably my favorite to play on. Lots of players, lots of action (and you can see some of your favorite players play for big bucks!) The 200 Full Tilt Points were very easy to earn at $50 max buy-in no-limit, and it really benefits the player who likes to play tight, since you don't have to participate in a pot to get points. The site offers a massive sign-up bonus as well, which clears at a decent rate if you like to multi-table. I definitely recommend this site if you are trying out PokerSavvy for the first time.

Full Tilt Poker is one of the top traffic volume poker rooms. They have most of the world-class poker pro endorsers like Gus Hansen. Phil Ivey, and John Juanda play at Full Tilt every day. Probably the best-looking graphics in the business, and Full Tilt's software is simple to use. Game variety is very high, there is No-Limit/Fixed-Limit Hold'em, Pot-Limit/Limit Omaha High/Lo, Razz, Seven Card Stud, both high and high/lo, you can also play "mixed" games like H.O.R.S.E. Support is very friendly and they know what they are doing. The only problem with Full Tilt is the very high rake. It's very easy to clear the bonus offered by PokerSavvy and at the same time you can clear the sign-up bonus offered by Full Tilt. I highly recommend to try out Full Tilt Poker.

Full Tilt Poker has one of the best - if not the very best - client software, in my opinion. I very much liked playing in here and it didn't take me many hours in $.50/1 tables. The possibility to earn points in tournaments as well is always great for me because I like to play them, especially sit-and-gos. Worth checking out and have a peek at pro's playing high stakes!

It's not the quickest bonus to clear, but the software is outstanding. The graphics are outstanding, very fresh. It is very easy to check how many full tilt points you've earned within the software and if you multi-table, it is still definitely worth 500 SavvyPoints.
One of the best.

Full Tilt is one of the best Poker Sites allowing US players. It has good graphics (you can choose who you want to play as from a multitude of Avatars and the background of your poker room) and the software doesn't crash. One negative is you can't resize the tables but you can tell software where you want to sit. I especially like the 45 and 90 seat Sit'n'Gos for a low buy-in. Overall it is one of my favorite sites to play at.

Very easy to clear! It took two nights playing at $.25/50 tables. Easy to use! You can see your points balance so you know how far from clearing the bonus you are. Players were easy.
I'll like it here... After awhile.

Full Tilt Poker is graphically pleasing. There are plenty of tables, and lots of people playing. Transactions were handled quickly, and all around, the site is well laid out. Eventually I know I'll love playing at Full Tilt. I'm taking a break right now, due to a series of bad cards... and bad decisions. So I'm a little down right now. I just needed a break, and I'll get back to the waters that I've chummed! Seriously though, I really do like the site, particularly the ability to customize the view of available tables. You'll be seeing me back out there very shortly!

There are great tournaments at FTP. Not just Texas Holdem, but also Omaha, Omaha hi/lo, Seven, Seven hi/lo, Razz, HORSE,...
The software is nice. I especially like the feature that allows you to adjust your place in the table. This is very helpful when playing multi tables. SavvyPoints were easy to get but in general tables were quite tight compared to many other poker rooms.
Quite ok place.

FTP was a good place to play. The quality of the games was most often quite good, but I was outdrawn too many times by lucky shots. :/

Nice site good amount of players, quick cash outs. When playing .50-1 or 1-2 it does not take very long to clear the requirements as it is only 200 full tilt points.
Nice place

This one seemed a hard one at first, but then i made a decision to play PL Omaha and i got the required in something like 24h. I just played the good hands and fired away when had nuts i was left +50$ after the requirements. I liked the software and graphics they were pretty fun looking:) I think that i will be back in Full Tilt to play Omaha:)

If you like PokerRoom you will like Full Tilt. It's almost exactly the same software. I read that the bonus is somewhat hard to get but I didn't have any problems getting it in a matter of hours playing .25/.50 No Limit Holdem and P/L Omaha. Quick Cashouts and had no problems with the software or Full Tilt Service.

The site is very hammy and over the top. Great site for conversations and possibly speaking with pros. I don't have the bankroll to play with them and with the wealth of information at the site there aren't enough fishes to want to play there. But making an angry puppy face with my avatar is very much worth the sign up.
Tight site

Full tilt was a difficult site to fulfill. Tables are fairly tight in the low-limit - almost have to play 6 max in order to clear the bonus.
PokerSavvy staff was prompt in crediting account.
Most Profitable Poker Room for Me

I really liked the software that Full Tilt uses and I had a good experience with it. The requirements for SavvyPoints seemed really easy to attain because you can get partial points for small rakes. This poker site was also the most profitable for me. It was probably a combination of luck and coincidence, but I was extremely successful at the FTP tables.
nice

Lot of players and it?s even nice to watch pro players in action with huge stacks. You can also find good tables to collect some $$

Full Tilt was a true grind for me. I lost a lot clearing the requirements and after I was done, I was told that I was not tracked to Pokersavvy... :(
But Matt kindly belived my side of the story and persuaded Full Tilt to pay up, and they did. =)
Usually people say that Full Tilt has bad players, but I dont think so. Also it may be that I was running on bad luck, and thats why i lost so much.
Graphics are very nice and the avatars are awesome!
Good software, lots of pros

The software for FTP is one of the best I've used. It lets you adjust your place in the table, which is very helpful when multitabling with a small monitor, where tables easily overlap. You can also adjust the background of the playroom, from more colorful(like Jungle) to more conservative, plain design(like Midnight). FTP also uses avatars, and they have four different emotions that you can choose. Like for example, after winning a big bet you can change your avatar to Happy, or after being sucked out at the river, to Angry. These avatars and emotions make it easier to remember that you are actually playing against real humans, and you can even intimidate some steaming players with them(no one likes to be laughed at with a big grin after bad beat!). However, if you think avatars and colorful backgrounds are waste of time, you can turn of the avatars and change the background to very plain one.
The competition at FTP seemed semi-tight, but beatable. Though I only played at NL10 & FL 0.25/0.50, where players tend to be more loose, so I dunno about the higher games. The good thing about FTP is that you can earn the needed points at any limits, since $1 of rake is 1.00 points, and they pay fractional points too. So even $0.05 of rake earns you points, unlike in many sites where rake needs to be at least $0.25 or $0.50. Getting the needed 200 points took me about 1000 hands, played mostly at NL10. The availability of games was n't best for me, as it seems that most players are Americans. During daytime here in Northern Europe, there wasn't too many players online, maybe 3000 or so, compared to almost 15 000 after midnight, when it is evening in North-America.
One selling point of FTP is of course the big line-up of pros. If playing or just chatting with the professional superstar players floats you boat, FTP is the place to go. Their customer support is also very fast and quality of help is excellent.
Only problem I encountered was that for some reason I wasn't first tracked as a player coming from Pokersavvy. I never found out why this was, but my best guess is that it had something to do with cookies. First it looked like I wasn't going to get the points I had been playing for few weeks, but happily Matt of Pokersavvy negotiated with FTP and after a while they agreed to credit my points afterall(thanks again Matt!), so happy ending. :)
