Play money and real money have the same great choice - HORSE in play money brilliant.
You can play Holdem Poker (fixed, pot and no limit), Omaha Poker (hi and hi/lo), Seven Card Stud Poker (hi and hi/lo), Razz Poker and Horse.
Tournaments have buy-in's ranging from freerolls ( free poker ) to $1,000. "Sit and go's" cost from $1 to $2,000. Cash poker games start at 25/50c and go up to $1,000/$2,000.
One of Full Tilt Poker's main marketing points is that many of the top professional are involved with the online poker site, and if you are prepared to wait you can play the likes of Phil Ivey, Chris Ferguson, Jennifer Harman, and Andy Bloch.

At our last review of the poker site (17/5/07 19.00 GMT) there were 8,400 poker tables in play, with 25,677 players.
If you are new to Poker you will find their "How to Play" pages very interesting and helpful, in fact they are very useful to all levels of player.
The Main Lobby interface is straightforward with tabs and buttons to choose the type of poker table to play on. The actual tables then scroll down the centre pane of the lobby.
You also find a clock in the main lobby, but it is the only clock on the site, they do not exist in the Tournament Lobbies.
Therefore to find out how long it is before your tournament starts you have to flick to the Main Lobby see what time it is in US CET. (convert it to GMT or whatever) subtract that time from the start time of your tournament to see if you've got time for a coffee, or whatever else you may do before a tournament.
Yes, a small little moan, but a simple countdown clock in the Tournament Lobby would sort it.
The site uses 8 player poker tables and you have a choice of avatars. During play you can change the expression of your avatar (natural, happy, angry and confused), all good stuff.
You also have the choice of 7 backdrops. You can also tile or cascade poker tables if you want to play more than one poker table at a time.
So all in all you have a fair bit of choice, but it does not have the facility to show what part of the world your opponents are from, personally I like to know that.
