Ring Game Traffic (9)
Traffic at Full Tilt Poker is very good. There are always several games running at any level of Texas Hold'em and Omaha. Full Tilt Poker has peak cash-game traffic of 10,500 real-money players at peak hours (November 2009).
Soft Competition (7)
Competition at Full Tilt Poker ranges from relatively loose and terrible at the micro limits to pretty much unbeatable at the high and ultra-high stakes.
Full Tilt Poker is definitely one of the rooms you’ll find “grinders” making a living from online poker, so realize if you’re hitting the mid-stakes games and up you'll find players with thousands of hours of experience ready and able to pick your game apart.
That being said, there are plenty of noobs at the micro-stakes. Basically, pick your tables and stakes well and you can find very beatable games.
No-Limit games are still soft, but more difficult than your average online poker room. Players looking for softer games should consider Omaha and the mixed games also.
Rake (5)
The rake at Full Tilt Poker is slightly higher than the industry average, with a 5% rake collected in tight intervals. In No-Limit and Pot-Limit games, a maximum of $1 is taken out of the 5¢/10¢ games.
At higher limits, Full Tilt Poker has a max. rake of $3, and the rake structure is similar to most other sites. For Limit games, the maximum rake is 50¢ up to 50¢/$1 stakes. The max. rake is $1 at $1/$2 stakes, and $3 at $2/$4 and higher stakes.
Full Tilt also follows a standard "no flop, no drop" rake policy.
Support (8)
Support response time and quality are both very good and e-mails are usually answered in a reasonable time. Some support lag has been known to occur at times, however, due to the high influx of players or during a large software update.
