Full Tilt's statistics screen is top-notch.Full Tilt's are re-sizable, allowing for players to fit as many tables as they wish on their monitor screen.
The main menu software is easily navigated and intuitive. Players can customize the information displayed here by using the edit tab on both the cash game and tournament menus. The cash game main menu includes "players seeing the flop" percentages as well as average pot size statistics to facilitate table selection.
Players may click open the tournament screen menu of their choice and there will be a listing of all freerolls, tournament token and cash qualifiers to their selected tournament. Clicking on any within this satellite will take the player to that satellite's registration screen. Should their be satellites to these satellites, those will be listed there.
