Griffy asked, "Does anyone else find that this site slows down now and then? sometimes it gets so slow that it cant auto-post my blind in time and forced to sit out.

Yes. Happens to me quite often. Actually, it's comforting to know it isn't just me. You'd think with their heavy traffic and the big money they're making, they could do better. I'm going to e-mail support about it. Hope you'll do so, too. Complaints in numbers may get addressed.

I've never had a problem with full tilt, even with 12+ tables open.

maybe the problem is with the internet service provider im on. Im in a university hall this year and have to connect to full tilt through a proxy server and im pretty sure this was the problem, just thought id post to find out if anyone else was getting the same problem

Full Tilt is a great site IMO and one of the regular sites i play at. The site is fast, great software, pokertracker compatible & great signup bonus that has run since it first opened (100% upto $600, clears best at $3/$6 and above) there are also regular (every month or so) 50% reload bonuses upto $300.

It also has a number of pro's who play at the site and who regularly play at the micro stakes. I've played $2/$4 O8/b with Jennifer Harmen. $25nl with Phil Ivey.

The only think i'd wish they would do is change their software so you could re-size the tables like Party Poker.

Scores a 9/10 for me.

Has anybody withdrawn lately? Full Tilt has always been very prompt with my withdrawals, but this time they've already taken several days and my withdrawal is still being shown as 'queued' in the transaction history. It's for less than $200 as well.

I cashed out last week, full br for $495.90, and it hit my account within 24 hours. Is your money being sent to neteller? If it is, I would write and inquire. Sounds like some glitch/slip-up. I have full faith in Full Tilt.

I've just started playing at Full Tilt, and I've got to say that I am not impressed at all.

The software is okay, the graphics are interesting, and the lobby stats and cashier page update quickly.
However, the game speed is very slow, most tables have around 60 h/hr
There's not as many animations as most other sites, so sometimes I don't know whats going on (particuarly when someone calls). It also seems a bit jerky.

I figured that this place would have its fair share of fish at 0.50/1.00, seeing as the sign-up bonus was very bad for this limit.
However, I have found the play harder at this limit than most other sites, including Prima's. I think the fact that the game speed is so slow makes me think the place is full of rocks.

Well, it's only been around 200 hands, so maybe I'm jumping to conclusions. But so far so bad.

EDIT:
I withdraw my comment about the solid play at this site. After playing well into Saturday night, I have seen some quite terrible play. There are a few rocks dotted around, but otherwise the games seem very passive.

However, this has been bad beat city for me. I have never seen it so bad, and my sanity is now in serious danger. Have just lost 30BB in the space of 50 hands, losing to a gutshot on the river twice!
