Press Release

Full Tilt has today announced the launch of a series of new white label poker skins for Over 50 year old players only. Because of the ageing population globally Full Tilt believes that this very important segment of the market is now under-represented in the online sphere and now is the time to introduce a seniors offering for players, where they can play safe in the knowledge that on this skin at least, it won't be the younger players dominating the game



Features of the new software include

- Registration only acessible to those aged 50 years old or over
- Action buttons in larger font
- Synchronised breaks every fifteen minutes
- New terminology on the tables. Permitted actions are "LIMP" "RAISE" and "BACK-RAISE" only
- Minimum raise sizes of 4x the previous bet
- Any raise beyond a 3-bet is not permitted
- A "turn it off and turn it on again" button in the case of software freezing
- Players can report any suspicions and evidence of floating, range merging and other new fangled ideas to support 
- the launch of Open Face Dominoes and Cribbage buttons
- A "Mayday" button where players can talk to a nice young lady about how it used to be in their day



Games will include Seven Card Stud, Omaha, Limit Hold-Em, Double your money Sit and Gos and Seven Card Stud 

The skins will operate nationally. Extensive research determined that many older players did not want to play against other nationalities.

Alf Priolo, Head of business development at Full Tilt's New Subsidiary Half-Tilt poker said

"We are please to announce the launch of our seniors online offering Half-Tilt Poker. It should revolutionise the online poker world for older players. Our range of new software features are tailored for the needs of the senior player and our reward system will be so too, with a range of exciting prizes from stairlifts, bowls club memberships and backstage passes to watch the filming of Countdown"



Priolo went on to announce the launch of a range of new live seniors tours. For example in the UK 

"We will be hosting the Three-Cees tour in a variety of seaside locations, beginning in Bournemouth in May. Players will get a comfy cushion and a cocoa (three cees), play will begin at 9am and finish at 8pm and the valets uniforms won't be too skimpy, just in case"

Where do I sign up?

Those synchronised breaks every 15 minutes were the clincher.

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k.  “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi.  Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.
