Two New Moneymaking Features With New Full Tilt Software
October 20, 2009
The big news over at Full Tilt Poker these days is the release of the latest update of the FullTilt poker software. The buzz is especially big because included in the update are 2 features that make it easier for Full Tilt poker players to walk away from the table (or rather, their computer) with money.
One feature is called Run It Twice and it could be familiar to viewers of Poker After Dark on NBC or Face the Ace, also on NBC, both of which were sponsored by Full Tilt Poker. With Run It Twice, if there are only two players left in a hand in a real money cash ring game table at Full Tilt, if both players have gone all-in, they can agree to activate the Run It Twice feature and have the dealer lay two River cards (and if the eligibility requirements and met and the agreement comes before the Turn, then two Turns too). Then the pot is split in two and the winner of each outcome gets half. This allows both players a chance to leave the hand a winner. And it gives both of them two chances to stay in the game without rebuying.
Stay tuned for a future post when we describe the second new Full Tilt feature, the one for tournament players, called Cashout Tournaments.
