This is the first article in a series of reviews of various internet poker rooms. I actually take my own money and sign up for a different website about once a week or so. I am trying to get at the actual experience of playing at these tables.



Fact or Hype?









The first website I will be reviewing is Full Tilt Poker. They are backed by big shot poker players and high priced television ads, but does their website manage to live up to all the hype?



Getting Started



The first thing that I noticed is how easy it was to sign up with Full Tilt Poker. They accept many forms of payment and I already had a neteller account from previous websites.



$600 Sign-Up Bonus



Also, I had been tipped off to a special bonus that Full Tilt is offering right now. Whatever you deposit, they match it! So if you deposit $200, you will have $400 in your account! Basically you're staring out $200 ahead before you have even played your first hand. Pretty cool right?



Look and Feel



So I decided to start with a low stakes table just to feel my way around. I got used to everything very fast and I was soon in the game.There are a large number of avatars to choose from and they all have emotions so you can express yourself during the game. The styling is very smooth and pleasing to the eye. They allow you to adjust the visual settings to make you more comfortable. This really was my favorite part of the experience. The various backgrounds are lush with invigorating and enticing colors.



24/7 Support



When you are playing onling poker, it is very important that the site has responsive customer service. I tried to use the support team, just to see how well they help out. They were actually very helpful and speedy, unlike many other sites that I have played at.



Cashout



Cashout was very easy as well. I simply transfered the money from my account into my FPS account and it was ready to spend. They also offer fund withdrawls via check, however this can take up to 15 days to process.



I Recommend Full Tilt Poker



All in all I had an excellent experience at Full Tilt Poker. If you're looking for the ideal place to play poker online, I highly suggest that you use Full Tilt Poker. I have used many, many poker sites and Full Tilt Poker is by far the best one I have see to date.



Remember that like all poker rooms there is an element of risk, but things like playing in a relaxed environment can help turn the odds in your favor.
