Mini-FTOPS XIII Results & A Surprise
September 22, 2009
Last Sunday was the finale of two major poker events, only one of which took place at Full Tilt, but both of which involved Full Tilt players.
The first is the winner of the Mini-FTOPS XIII, an event that drew some 14,000 entrants, whittled down to noitall611 who had made a deal to chop the pot with Kanemochi (aka McFugu) when they went into heads-up play. Kanemochi won the larger share of the pot ($94,076) while noitall611 won the Mini-FTOPS XIII Main Event title and the smaller ($89,982) share of the pot.
Kanemochi is the same player who came in 10th place in the Party Poker Million in May '09 and then made it to the final table of the Titan Poker $250,000 a couple of months later.
The other noteworthy achievement was Yevgeniy Timoshenko's win of the main event at the PokerStars 2009 WCOOP that started last Sunday and ended Monday. Why note that here? Because the same day he nailed that big title (and $1,715,200), he also simultaneously won the Full Tilt Monday $1K for $75,000 more.
Take 2 Times the FTPs for Playing 2 Cash Games at Once
September 9, 2009
Full Tilt Poker's latest promotion is called Take 2 for good reason - because it's got two parts.
First, Full Tilt is giving players double the Full Tilt Points for double-tabling - that's multi-tabling at any two cash ring tables at the same time, throughout the month of September. It's an excellent way to notch up those FTPs fast, without doing anything other than continuing to play at your favorite cash tables at FullTilt.
Secondly, if you keep doing this, day after day, for enough days in a row, you could win a bonus of up to $50. The progressive Take 2 bonus starts once you've played on two tables simultaneously for 5 consecutive days - earning you $5. Continue like this for a full 25 days consecutively and win the whole $50 bonus.
The Take 2 promotion is running now over at Full Tilt Poker through one minute before midnight on September 30.
