Wow, I can't wait to play a Matrix game, but I don't know about the new login preferences.:

Online Poker at Full Tilt Poker - How to play: New Features

Matrix Tournaments

Prepare yourself for a tournament like you’ve never experienced. When you enter full tilt poker’s new Matrix Tournaments, you’ll play four tournament tables against the same opponents simultaneously in the ultimate test of poker skill.
In our Matrix Tournaments, you’ll play down to the last man at each of four individual tables, just like a Sit & Go. But unlike a Sit & Go, your chance to make a score doesn’t end there − you’ll also earn Matrix points for each player that you knockout and for every player that you outlast on each table. Once the last table finishes, the players who’ve earned the highest Matrix scores will be paid out for their overall performance, in addition to their payout for their finish in each tournament.

When you’re ready to check out our new Matrix Tournaments, just look for the "M" symbol next to select tournaments in the tournament lobby. No other poker site offers this new and unique tournament format − go to the Sit & Go lobby to enter the Matrix today.
New Account Security: Login with your email address

You can now add an extra layer of security to your Full Tilt Poker account by using your email address to login to the game. To change your login method, open the “Security” drop-down menu in the game lobby and select "Login Preferences…"

A pop-up window will open and you’ll be able to choose your login preference.

I'm playing a microstakes $1.25 one right now.

Won 78c by winning one table, got 3rd for nothing for another, and 4th and 6th at the others.

Had to try one of the matrix games. They are pretty fun and it adds another element to the game. In match one i knocked out 7 people, which really boosted my score.

I had to win Match 3 in order to jump over Henk, because 2nd place would only get me 1 more survival point, and I would finish 2nd in the meta game. I ended up taking that down and clinched first before match 4 even completed.

Gaynell8 busted out of 2 matches really fast and played super donkey style in his remaining two, allowing me to bust him in match 1.

Once all four tables finished the below notice popped up.

You get a 9 Hand History files, one for each table, one summary for each table, and one summary for the side pool. It doesnt seem like it would mess Pokertracker up, but I have not yet tried to do an import.

Is FT not connecting for anyone else, are they adding more updates than these?

Did anyone happen to notice if FT was still writing observed HHs to your HD?

Ir's downloaded the HH from the Matrix game I played, haven't played any ring games, no one was playing Limit Omaha 8, but it still seems to be sending me my HH.

I'm talking specifically about observed HHs. The .tmp files that are written to your HD before you sit down at a table. There has been some speculation that FT would remove the ability to import observed HHs in an effort to thwart data miners.

so these new donkaments are basically just 4-tabling sngs against the same people?

it hardly seems groundbreaking.

I enjoy just a little twist sometimes to keep things interesting.

If you want groundbreaking try Duplicate Poker. OH... wait.... :)

how does the option of logging in with an email address increase security?

I assume it's because anyone who's seen you play knows your screen name, so all they need to do is work out your password. They've already got half the information they need to log into your account.

They won't know your e-mail address though, so if you log in using that, people can't get either piece of information they need just from watching you play.

Just noticed something else with the new update too - the disconnect time bank seems to have been raised to 180 seconds (or at least, it has in HU SnGs). WTF?!? That's half a level (or more)... :rolleyes:

I don't get it - usually either it's a quick disconnect, and you're back pretty much straight away, or you've got a bigger problem that'll take more than three minutes to fix anyway.
