New Features in Full Tilt Poker UpdatePlayers at Full Tilt Poker will notice the addition of two new features introduced as part of the latest software update.

Full Tilt Poker is pretty good at staying ahead of the curve and their latest additions to their software package pays tribute to this. With the latest poker software update Full Tilt Poker has added two additional features that had not up till now been available to customers.

The first of the new features is a Run It Twice feature. This features is known from TV poker shows but is only now making its way into mainstream online play. The Run It Twice feature can be activated if both parties agree and only applies to a situation when there are two remaining players only in a ring game and they are both all in. In this situation, assuming both agree, the Run it Twice feature will allow the players to see the two possible outcomes of a single hand with half the pot on each of the two outcomes.

The second new feature is Cashout Tournaments. The Cashout Tournaments will differ from regular tournaments, only in as much as when doing well, players are able to cash out their chips, or part of their chips, even if they are still in the game. Thus, when doing well, players are not made to remain in the game and face a possible bad patch, but rather can cashout whenever they want.

The cashout portion sounds pretty cool, I will have to check that out. As for the Deal it twice part, I play that sometimes on Carbon Poker. I am on the fence about that. It has worked for me, but at the same time it has hurt me.
Thanks for the update.

Cashout tourney looks interesting. It'll be nice to cash out if a tourney runs too long.

Run it twice is okay, but the option should be put on the table. Not a lot of people ever even run it twice. I have only seen it twice. One time for me and another while sitting at a ring table.

Cash out tournaments seem good in the event that you just don't feel like playing anymore, feel like breaking even so you don't lose, or you gotta run....it's great. It's a good feeling to know you can opt "out" when given the chance, since you are NOT given the chance. haha. Well that's just my opinion...haven't played a cashout tourny yet, but I will def try and see if the cash out option is a beneficial while in tournament play. :dance:

[FONT="Franklin Gothic Medium"]Been at a few final tables, but have only seen one deal made so far...and it was right after I busted, of course. One player wasn't willing to deal until it was HU it seems. Most other times, players don't really seem interested, but maybe that's just because of the stakes I'm playing at. . . :confused:[/FONT]

The cash out is very interesting. I've played several and the cool thing is; once you you get about 3X your starting stack you can cash that out Giving up 2/3 of your stack to get your buy in back. NOW ITS A FREEROLL for you since you have all your buy in money back. Swing for the fences!! Love it.
