In this category, Full Tilt scored just above the average among the other sites reviewed so far. Their support is fairly responsive, but only available via email. They have a growing Poker Forum available, and recent improvements to the site have increased their rating for this category. Full Tilt remains open to U.S. customers at this time, but, like other sites, are still working to improve their deposit/withdrawal options for those customers. |

With an original graphics approach, Full Tilt seems to give off a smooth, sports-like look and feel to their games. Cartoon style avatars are available, but the overall graphics being clean and functional is what really gives this site a high score in this category. Showing commitment to player-friendly
improvements, Full Tilt has just released the first native downloadable software specific for Mac computers.
Recently, Full Tilt has added tiled table viewing options (for Stud games as well), a welcomed improvement for those preferring to play multiple tables at the same time. Such an upgrade pushes Full Tilt almost to the highest score in the category.

With one of the biggest deposit bonuses offered, 100% match, up to $600, Full Tilt provides some exciting player promotions. You will have 120 days to earn your bonus, which is automatically credited to your Bonus Account where it will be held and released to your cash
account in increments of 10% of your initial deposit, or $20, whichever you earn first. For each dollar raked from a pot, every player who was dealt cards for that hand will earn one point. You can earn partial points if less than one dollar is raked, and you can earn up to three points per hand. Each point is worth $.06, so you can earn up to $18 per hundred hands. For every dollar in tournament fees, you will earn 7 points. You can see your cash total and bonus cash amounts in the Cashier window. While not the toughest bonus requirements, it does take some time to fully earn the bonus, and 120 days may not seem long enough.
However, they do also offer regular 50% reload bonuses, have a player points program for Full Tilt gear, as well as a VIP points program for freeroll tournament entries. |
