Full Tilt

well, being that they currently run sats to the most WPT/WSOPC events than any major site (5), and the big event entry sats are NOT ever turbo/rebuy, i switched my few coins over at stars to tilt. bye-bye, rebuy roulette.

as for the other stuff, i switched the avatars off right away, changed the table background to the beach scene, and the deck to the neutral red, and thus have no visual problems/distractions whatsoever. actually, i like that layout a lot. also like the fact that i only need to hover over the other players in order to read their notes, which saves me clicks and time.

the recent few server lags/outages were apparently due to the fact that theyre rolling out the mac version of their software. ok, agreed that shouldnt be an excuse, but...its what it is. theyre not stars in that respect, noone is, and theyre having their own growing pains too...still, not nearly enough to run me out and subject me again to the turbo/rebuy roulette bonanza at the other place(s).

I like Full Tilt. Their game selection is good (not as good as Party's, of course) and their tourney structure is FAR SUPERIOR to Party's. Their bonuses are easy (for me) to clear, and I couldn't care less what the avatars look like. I have the background set to Midnight, which is easy on the eyes. I even like their buttons, etc.

I like the avatars...I always know which guys me. You can sit wherever you want to (change the focus to whatever part of the screen you like that is).

What kind of stats does FullTilt keep on each player? I ask because as a mac user I am tempted play there, but the mac pokertracker (MacPoker Pro) doesn't work there yet so I would be playing naked.

Oh I love my crutch of pokertracker, it makes me feel safe and warm all over.

edit: I am going to deposit some money on Fulltilt probably tomorrow (whenever my Neteller deposit clears from Pokerroom). I don't know if there is a bonus, but if so does anyone want the referral?

You guys who have been on FT a while, do the bonuses really end after 6 months? I have one I got for $500 back in my salad days that I didn't come close to finishing that supposedly expired last July, but it's still showing in my cashier bonus info, if it's still good I should throw some bux back in there.

I personally like the avatars, but that's just me, some of them are stupid though. I probably have a liking to it though since that's where I do a majority of my playing.

As for the bonus, yes the time does run out. Mine hasn't moved since the time expired, so I'm waiting for the 50% reload bonus before I deposit on there again, until then it's the good ole freerolls on FT.
