Rational Group, the company that owns Full Tilt Poker, has announced its plans to transform the famous Poker room into a large-scale casino. The representatives of Rational Group have officially confirmed that the visitors of the Full Tilt Poker will soon not only test their abilities in Poker, but also will be able to play a range of new online games.
The first new introduction will be changing the name of the Poker room. Most probably, the new name of the company would be Full Tilt Gaming or Full Tilt Casino. For those users, who are passionate about online Poker, there will be no changes for the worst: the Poker room is going to work as before and Poker fans will still have their favourite tables with low bets as well as professional tournaments, such as FTOPS.
Rational Group is probably hoping that such an expansion will help it to become a valid competitor to large online casinos - 888 Casino or Party Casino. It is a well-known fact: in the States the interest in online Poker is actually in a steady decline (due to the fact that online Poker is still illegal there). Because Rational Group has an established player base for the Poker room coupling it with a large portfolio of online games, this will allow the company to expand its market share in the new part of market of gambling games.
