Full Tilt Poker Reopens for Business

Full Tilt Poker opened its doors to customers for the first time in more than 18 months on Tuesday, giving millions access to funds in player accounts that they might have thought lost.

Historic day for poker

Full Tilt's grand reopening gives players access to more than $184 million in funds that were left in accounts following the infamous Black Friday last year. Its relaunch was made possible after the sale of the site to the parent company of former arch-rival Poker Stars was completed.

The new FTP brings back many of the features that players of the previous version knew and loved, including the Full Tilt Online Poker Series (FTOPS). Its partnership with PokerStars means players will be able to more easily move between the two sites and choose from a better selection of games, tournaments and promotions.

Celebrating the relaunch

To mark the reopening, Full Tilt Poker is offering a number of promotions including $250,000 worth of freerolls and $300,000 in FTOPS tickets. There is a happy hour promotions that delivers players double the points 24 hours a day, and Deal Me In bonus which ensures every player receives at least $200.

New and existing players can participate in double and triple chance tournaments, and will be able to play the same opponents at multiple table in heads-up ring games through the "add table" feature.
