    Default If tilt is bad, why did name the site Full Tilt?

    Doesn't that seem weird?

    I play on pokerstars, but I see a lot of promotion for FullTilt on tv. Is there any advantage of one over the other?

    That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

    And why do PG call their teabags pyramids, when in fact they are tetrahedrons?

    Wait, tetrahedrons are a type of pyramid. I need to think this through a little more.

    I guess that "tilt", especially "full tilt", is an expression that, while technically negative, also connotes danger and excitement. Things that many people presumably come to poker sites to look for.

    make sure to get rakeback if you want to play on tilt
    but stars is superior for the micros because you get 100% RB on rake you don't pay amirite
