Full Tilt Updates Online Poker Room

Online poker giant Full Tilt Poker has updated their online poker room recently. The updates include new innovations that are creating a buzz of excitement. Players will find the Run It Twice option in cash games as well as the Cashout Tournaments option.

The Run It Twice feature allows cash game players to select a check box that will give players two different outcomes for their community cards. Whenever two players have the box checked during heads up play and they are both all in then the remaining community cards are dealt twice, equaling two different outcomes.

If the all in is pre-flop then all five cards are dealt twice while if the players are all in during the turn then the river is dealt twice. This creates a split pot with the winner of each hand winning half the pot. If the one player has the best of both hands then that player will get both halves of the pot.

The Cashout Tournaments option gives players the opportunity to cash out some or all of their chips before a tournament have ended. In these games each buy-in is divided into two pools, the tournament prize pool and the cashout pool. The tournament prize pool is the normal tournament pool while the cashout pool allows the player to take some or all of their chips before the tournament has ended.

Players can cash out all of their chips and leave the tournament but this will determine the players finishing position in the tournament. The value of the cashout is based on how many chips are being cashed out, as well as the starting stack size and the buy-in.
