Overview
Full Tilt Poker has been touted as the next big thing in online poker. With a star studded cast of poker professionals backing, playing, and earning revenue from the site, all they need is a big break at the World Series of Poker, and it is not hard to see them being the next Poker Stars.
Bonuses
Full Tilt offers one of the biggest bonuses in the industry - a 100% matching bonus up to $600. Use the bonus code
MORECASH to receive this bonus. The bonus is somewhat challenging to earn, but if you're playing 1/2 and up it's a pretty nice bonus.
Player Competition
The player population is heavy enough that you'll find your pools of fish. Though not good for your chip stack, you can even choose to look for a table with one of the pro's. The big names have been known to drop down to the lower limits to mingle with the commoners.
Software

The lobby is simple enough to navigate and filter, and I found the avatars to be a nice touch. Full Tilt isn't a room that you hear many complaints about due to software problems.
Traffic
Full Tilt already has a solid player base, and is growing steadily. With a little success at the World Series of Poker, you can expect their traffic and population to explode.
Games Offered
Texas Hold'em: NL, PL and Limit. Omaha and Omaha hi/lo: Limit, PL and NL. 7 Card Stud, 7 Card Stud hi/lo, Razz, Multi-Table and Single Table Tournaments. They also have a special section dedicated to World Series of Poker satellites.
Promotions
As mentioned, their
>$600 signup bonus is nothing to balk at. They do offer reloads from time to time, and also sponsor freerolls, other money-added tournaments, and WSOP satellite tournaments.
Security
Full Tilt uses 256-bit SSL encryption, and for what it's worth, they ensure that they have
adequate cash on hand to pay cashouts. This is actually an important point, as it ensures that even if online poker had a melt down, they would still be able to honor each players poker account balance.
Customer Service & Cashout Speed
24 hour customer service. Cashouts within 24-48 hours after approval. These are all along the lines of the standard for the industry.
