full tilt is worthless


Recommended Posts

What is going on with their server? This is the second time this week that it has simply not connected when the internet is otherwise working fine. Does anyone know what in god's name is going on, I need to gamble..........I'm not addicted.......But seriously I need to.

I like full tilt way better than any other site I have seen or played on, but if they don't get their server issues worked out they are going to be screwed. Especially with all the money they are spending on advertising they are going to have to get a server that can handle all the people they are drawing right now.

If i were in a MTT I would be livid, say I am 2BB chips behind 1st, I have to settle for 5th-6th place money because they crashed, i could understand doing a chip-chop but not by position

- If you were involved in a cash game hand, and would have lost money, we have credited your account with the amount you would have lost. If you would have won the hand, your account was credited with the total amount you would have won.
How would they be able to tell who would have one the pot? Wouldn't it be better to chop it up between the players still in? I mean, what if someone sucks out on the river, or folds? How can they tell?

Sounds like it's at the moment of shut down.Appears they're being as equitable and fair as possible.

Full tilt still down....no joining up tonight obviously then !How does site compare to poker stars, which i find to be the "nicest"(!)site to play on so far on my travels.(Guessing Seidel, D'agostino and the boys are a bit out of my league, but....hey!.....lessons never come cheap !) :roll:

i had a good hand when they went down that was going to get mad action. Im in the 1/2 tables on the BB with KQ d and raise it up to ten. Three callers including one tilter and the flop come Jd 10d 3c. I check, check, check, and the tilter bets 45$ into the pot. Cant wait to call it.......then im waiting more......mouth salivating now......wait, WHATS GOING ON HERE........NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO..........who knows, maybe i woulda lost and it ended up being a blessing in disguise. But i definetley agree that they need to fix the bugs. I bet you there getting so many emails bitching about this hand. I wonder how they will pay out the MTT

This is the second time in three days that this has happened. No, I'm not addicted, yes I am, no I'm no, yes I am. But out of Paradise Poker, Poker Stars, Bugsy's Club, I like Full Tilt the best. Even with their server issues. It seemed like at Paradise, there were too many "miracle" draws that people got so it felt unrealistic. At least when I stay in with my crap 9-2 off, I don't get a 9-9-2 flop like someone would on Paradise.On a side note, I'm dying to accumulate points to get a stupid women's t-shirt. Anyone know how I can just buy one? None on eBay, I looked.Mahalo!

A lot of times when a gambling site goes down like this it's because they weren't willing to pay the extortionists that had been threatening to do a major attack on the servers. I wonder if this is what's happening to them
