Lobby Software Upgrade Released by Full Tilt Poker

Full Tilt Poker, host of a worldwide online poker cardroom service, has finally released a new lobby software upgrade which was available to poker players for download this morning.

This new software upgrade which comes in a full package has several new features such as a fresh design for its lobby, new security pin system and an exciting big bonus offer for which the players had been requesting.

Login Screen is the first thing to notice in this new software. Compared to its previous design, its size is much larger. Its color scheme also becomes gray to better complement the look of the site.

Full Tilt Poker also provides with a new security Pin system so that their regular players will be given with a greater security because this system doesn't only require the login and password but also a 3-card pin combination. This security pin is randomly generated by the poker room and sent to users for verification before they can login. This improvement will make hacking of accounts almost impossible.

Online Casino Industry Advances Despite US Seizures

For the past couple of weeks, online casino industry was stocked up due to US Government Seizing Bank Accounts that held funds to pay out online poker players. However, this late past week, many of the top online poker sites in the world were back to accepting US players.

The poker players themselves were much more affected by the seizure than online casino sites. Over $30 million was frozen, leaving many players to wonder if they had seen the last of their winnings. At the very least, the players had been inconvenienced.

"I was worried not because I had money tied up in my accounts," said online poker player Jon Bresh, "but because I enjoy playing the game of poker and I was concerned I would no longer be allowed to make deposits to play."
