I'm thinking about leavin Party and coming over to Full Tilt. I play .50/1.00 and 1/2 and low buyin SNGs and MTTs...can anyone give me any feedback on how these limits and tourneys rate over at FullTilt?

I don't play cash games anymore so I can't comment there. As far as FT S&G's I mostly play the 45 player $5 ones. They usually fill pretty quick, play is pretty good too but very beatable.
S&G=10 They seem to lack the low buy-in MTTs, or at least I haven't found many of them yet. $11 is the lowest I've seen. MTT=6.8 Excellent reliability for their software but the look doesn't appeal to everyone.
Haven't played FullTilt yet but found a Full Tilt Filter Tutorial that might come in handy for anyone new to the site.

Does that Custom tab still exist? I signed up on Saturday and I haven't noticed it yet. It would be good not having to sift through all the NL games to find a decent limit game.
Cake or Death?
To answer my own question, it doesn't. Which is a shame really because it's such a good site. Software is quick and neat. I like the auto-centre option (not a fan at UB for some reason) and it's good to track exactly how much bonus you've cleared at any opportunity. The traffic is good (usually at least 6 tables of FR and SH 1/2 limit at any time). Play is a little tighter and more aggressive than I'm used to but I'm sure I'll adapt. Very impressed so far. How are the cashouts? Cake or Death?
Just a little warning, I've heard many reports of Full Tilt freezing accounts and asking for ID documents from people that have tried to cash out a bigger amount than what they first deposited with Neteller. Example - you deposit $500 then try to make a single withdrawal of $800 later you may run into problems, you would have been better off withdrawing $400 first and then withdrawing the other $400 after 2-3 days. It has gotten nasty with some people saying that they repeatedly tried to contact support after their account was frozen and they were always sent the same automated email from support about an "internal audit" being done on their account. It has happened with my friend and least a dozen other 2+2er's, they said that it took as long as 2-3 weeks (!) before they were able to get a human reply and get their money. Personally, I deposited $1k at a time first and I make sure each of my individual withdrawals are less than $1k and are at least 3 days apart, I don't wanna put up with any potential hassles.
I wrote to CS, asking them to make it possible and explaining why. They said I should post the suggestion on their forum which makes it sound like we never had that ability there. The autocenter was the coolest, but you can't use it w/HUD. The play has certainly tightened up. I keep hoping that with the fewer sites available to US, it will fishy up. I win there but seems to require more patience than elsewhere. Cashouts are good-- smooth, easy. I don't remember how long, but it's probably about a day. CS is *really* good. I routinely cash out more than my deposit and have never had a problem. The first time I'd heard of this situation was regarding Stars, I thought. I'm really surprised to read what you've written, Paulie. It certainly hasn't been my experience. I think FT is as honorable as Stars. I've never been concerned about any problems, nor had any problems with FT. CS's response time has never been more than an hour... and this is over a 2-year time. 
Another victim of FPS, Fancy Play Syndrome-- need the correct opp to make moves/try to outplay them-- especially at lower levels where they almost all play at the zeroth or 1st level of thinking you usually do end up spewing chips-- even against the correct opp you have to pick your spots--not try to do it too often. -- Bugsbunny
For the last week, I have experienced frequent game delays and disconnections while playing on Full Tilt. It is the worst in the evening CST.
This just started on November 29 after 6 weeks of playing at Full Tilt with no problems. Tech support really could not help. I have broadband cable service with 3 mil mpbs. Has anyone else experienced these problems while recently playing at Full Tilt?
I have freezing problems with FT pretty regularly. I just take it in stride, though it can be annoying. The disconnects, reconnect. It's just their buggy software, I believe.

Anyone have difficulty getting hand histories to save?
I checked save under hand histories under options but get nothing. No word from support on it yet either. There's no certainty – only opportunity
I had an instance where hand histories were no longer saving after an update but I resolved it by re-checking the save under hand histories without a problem. It was about a month ago.
i tried BWIN, ParadisePoker, CakePoker and now i play at FullTilt...what can i say...it is about something else...I recommend it to try...you will not regret
Has anyone had issues like this?
I have been an online player for over 7 years. I had accounts on just about every site when I used to play because I would be bonus chasing. When I signed up with Full tilt I signed up with my bank account. I got online about 3 months ago and was playing and redeposited some money back in Feb because I hit felt on the balance.
I did not know that when I did that they still had my old bank account information. I have since changed banks and do not have an account with Chase any longer. The Full tilt guys approved my deposit and I played etc. I didnt even know they where using this other account Until I tried to withdrawal some money because I won like 4k in a tournament and was simply trying to withdrawal 1/2 my winnings. When I did this they sent me an email asking me to send them a copy of my bank statement with the processed withdrawal from them. It was my old bank account, not my current one. I've emailed support asking them what I can do but they have now suspended my account with nearly 5k in it. My deposit was only 600 dollars. They have informed me that they are forwarding it to another department. Can anyone please tell me what I can expect from this? Thanks for any help and its fun to be back here at ITH! Tommy
