FTOPS at Full Tilt Poker

Face it. Everyone who’s ever watched ESPN wants to make the World Series of Poker. Who doesn’t enjoy the thought of outlasting the competition and finishing with the biggest win of our lives. But what if traveling to Vegas is simply out of the question?

Thanks to the good graces of Full Tilt Poker.com, the answer is yes. From the minds of Chris Ferguson and Erik Lindgren comes the critically-acclaimed online poker series, FTOPS.

Since its launch during August of 2006, FTOPS has morphed into the place to be when it comes to digital felt. When it started out, FullTilt scheduled only 8 events boasting a total winnable prize of $1 M.

Indeed, it turned out to be one of the greatest creations in the history of the internet game. In the years following its debut, FTOPS has drawn rave reviews from pros and amateurs alike. The latest installment was FTOPS XV, which wrapped this past February. This last tournament ran 27 separate events showcasing games like Texas Hold’em, Omaha, Stud, HORSE, and many others. The tournament purse had swelled nearly to breaking, reaching an astonishing $17 M.

Full Tilt’s newest edition, FTOPS XVI will raise the bar once again, featuring 30 events, all told, and an unprecedented $18 million guaranteed prize pool.

The biggest dance, as usual, is the Main Event. A hefty piece of the prize pool is doled out at these tables, which are crowded with several of the game’s top pros. Full Tilt Poker now includes a Two-Day Event, which usually boasts the second-largest prizes in each FTOPS. Besides this pair of events, the tournament has been expanded to include Turbo and Super Turbo gameplay for the quick crowd, as well as Knockout and Shootout style events for the more laid back among us.

Want to play with the best in the game? Each event is hosted by a member of Team Full Tilt, letting you fight it out for pots with some of the game’s elite. People such as Howard Lederer, Chris Ferguson, and Erik Lindgren will appear in each and every event. What’s not to like about that?

But what if you can’t afford to buy right in? Take a look at FullTiltPoker’s FTOPS satellites. This extensive network of smaller events allows the little guys among us to jump right in with the big fish.
