Run It Twice Feature Added on Full Tilt Poker

im pretty glad that they are implementing this feature in full tilt poker , according to the ftp press release, they will first offer this feature in the highest limits only , and over the next few weeks they will add it to the lower stakes games , 

heres an excerpt from their press release

Run It Twice – I'm sure you all know how it works, but briefly: If there are two players in the hand and there's an all-in and call before the river, and both players have decided to run it twice (there's a new checkbox in the "permanent checkbox" area of the table), any board cards left to come will be dealt twice, resulting in two boards. Half the pot will go to the winner of the first board and half the pot will go to the winner of the second board.

For now, only NO Limit Holdem Pot Limit Omaha, and HA games in Ivey's Room have "Run It Twice" enabled. It will be added for lower stakes games in the coming weeks.

they are also adding an interesting feature called cash out tournaments 

heres the excerpt

Cashout Tournaments – A totally new type of tournament. If you've ever heard someone say "I wish I could just take these tournament chips and cash out right now," well, now they can. Part (usually half) of your buy-in goes to the regular prize pool, but the rest goes to a "Cash-out Pool" which gets depleted as people "cash out" of the tournament.

By way of example: Say the buy-in is $20 and you start with 1,000 chips. If $10 of the buy-in goes to the Cash-out Pool, each 100 chips will be worth $1 of the Cash-out Pool. At any time throughout the tournament (except the very beginning while people are still registering and the very end) you can cash out part or all of your tournament chips for cash.
