Full Tilt Poker uses their own software called TiltWare, a company founded by pro player Chris Ferguson. Supporting the second largest online poker room in the world, the software performs well even during peak hours.
Over the years the Full Tilt software has gotten a series of upgrades that keep it ahead of the curve. Poker rooms that are on networks are at the mercy of the software provider to develop upgrades, while Full Tilt has the ability to make changes on a dime. This makes Full Tilt Poker more flexible to be able to add new tournaments, games choices, and adjustments to the tables & lobby whenever they like.
Taking advantage of their flexibility is exactly what they’ve done. With upgrades to the table & lobby functions, as well as adding new player options, Full Tilt Poker has the best overall software package in the industry.
Multi-Table Play
The Full Tilt software offers players the option to play at up to 18 tables at the same time. Using the mini-view on a 22″ or larger monitor, players can play 9 tables at a time without any overlap. The mini-view makes it much easier for players who like to play 5+ tables at a time.
Stats and Notes
Full Tilt Poker offers easy to use note taking options at the table. For later sessions, your notes can be viewed at the lobby to judge the competition before you sit down to play.
Basic statistics such as how many flops, turns and river cards you see, when you fold, and winning percentages at each stage of a hand are available at the table.
A nice hand history function is available at the table, and players can download complete hand history reports onto their computers.
Lobby Functions and Options
With so many cash games and tournaments available, the Full Tilt lobby has a lot to manage. Fortunately, the lobby has been designed well, with an extensive list of options and filters. The navigation bar on top has just about anything you could think of. It doesn’t take long to learn how to use the lobby.
On the bottom, right side of the lobby there’s a legend to help find your favorite tournaments. Read more about the Full Tilt lobby.
