Full Tilt 


Put some money into Full Tilt Poker Been grinding away to earn the 100% deposit bonus. 

Started playing two 2/4 hold'em tables to warm up to the whole online poker thing again. Realized I wasn't getting enough Full Tilt Points (FTP) for the time I spent playing so I decided to play two 3/6 hold'em tables. Turned out to be a good idea since now the FTPs are rolling in.

Played one $10 + 1 SNG where when down to 5 players I'm sitting 2nd in chips. Short stack is all in and me and another guy who I have covered calls. I have 66 and flop comes A x x with two clubs. It goes check-check and the 6c hits the turn. Guy goes all-in and I think why would he bet so much with no side pot. I contemplate calling with my set and decide it's good but I was a split-second too late and time ran out. The guy who pushed had KK with the K of clubs for nut flush draw. Short stack survives making two-pair on the river. I go from becoming huge chip leader and in the money to going out 5th.

Finished in the money in a $10 + 1 MTT (18th). Put a buddy in a $10 + 1 MTT on my account and when I got home from work he was 2nd in chips with 23 players left. He ended up taking 5th.

So far I like Full Tilt Poker and would recommend it. They have satellites going on right now for a trip to Atlantic City for the WPT event at the Borgata. Take advantage of the 100% deposit bonus up to $600.
