Make a Fast $50 at Full Tilt Poker

In celebration of its latest innovation, Rush Poker, Full Tilt Poker is quickly introducing a new bonus called the Fast $50.

Anyone who made their first deposit at FullTilt and completed clearing any active bonuses by Feb 21 has already automatically received the $50 bonus deposited into their Full Tilt Poker real money account. Anyone who has not met that criteria has two other options.

If you have yet to make your first deposit at FullTilt and you do so and clear that 100% first deposit bonus by March 10, then you’ll get a Fast $50 Bonus offer on March 12 that you’ll have two days (til March 14) to accept.

If you have already made your first deposit but you still have an active bonus running (perhaps your 100% welcome bonus) then you have until March 10 to clear that bonus, at which point you’ll get the Fast $50 bonus offer on the 12^th and have until the 14^th to accept.

FTOPS XV Going On Now

The 15th semiannual Full Tilt Online Poker Series is now underway, having started Wednesday, February 10 with a $1 million guaranteed event.

This time around there are 27 events, including the always exciting 2-day event for high-rollers, and all leading up to the main event, a $2.5 million guaranteed tournament.

FTOPS XV is running through February 21 and boasts a $17 million guaranteed prize pool. And one month following FTOPS XV is the MiniFTOPS XV, with a $6 million guaranteed prize pool and tournament buy-ins that are a fraction of the cost of the buy-ins for FTOPS XV.

Of course, you can avoid these buy-ins by winning one of Full Tilt Poker’s many satellite tournaments into FTOPS XV events, still going on now and running daily all the way through the end of the series.

FTOPS XV runs from February 10 - 21 and the Mini-FTOPS XV, the Full Tilt Online Poker Series' lower budget sibling, takes place from March 10 - 21. Up for grabs is a $17 million guaranteed prize pool at FTOPS XV and $6 million guaranteed total prize pool at MiniFTOPS XV.

Full Tilt Hosting Big Little Tournaments All Of January 2010: Big Rewards, Little Buy-Ins

After closing out 2009 right with two holiday themed bonuses (the 3Xmas Happy Hour and the Holiday Hundred) Full Tilt Poker is starting the coming year off right with a promotion running for the full length of the first month of 2010 with a guaranteed $1 million to be awarded. It's called the Big Little Tournament because it's for people who want to win big money for very little money.

That $1 million will be awarded over the course of four weekly $250,000 guaranteed tournaments to be held the first four Sundays of Jan. '10. The buy-ins for each of these Big Little Tournaments is a meager $5.50, but you can get in for even less (50 FTPs or $0.50) with daily satellites ongoing throughout the week.

The 1st and 3rd Big Little Tournaments (Jan. 3th and 17th) are normal NL Holdem tournaments, but the 2nd and 4th Big Little Tournaments (Jan. 10th and 24th) will be Turbo tournaments.

Celebrate 3Xmas Happy Hours & Earn 3x the Points

You may be familiar with the Full Tilt Poker Happy Hour promotion. It's an ongoing promo over at FullTilt in which you earn Full Tilt Points (FTPs) twice or three times as fast as usual by playing at designated Happy Hour tables (designated with a familiar yellow smiley face symbol) during designated Happy Hour times. Happy Hours happen daily.

Well now, in honor of the holiday season, FullTilt is offering a triple-decker version of its usual Happy Hour bonus - thus the name 3Xmas Happy Hour. Earn triple the usual amount of FTPs you would ordinarily earn when you play at any Happy Hour tables between December 21 and January 1. And on Christmas itself, Friday, December 25, and again on Friday, January 1, all Happy Hours will last for three times as long as they usually do, giving you even more time to win 3Xmas Happy Hour bonus points.

Win a Seat at the 2010 Aussie Millions

Now over at Full Tilt Poker you can win yourself a seat in the first major live poker tournament of the coming year, the 2010 Aussie Millions, to be held January 14 - 31, 2010.

There are all sorts of qualifiers into the main event, which boasts a top prize of $2.5 million. Each qualifier offers from 1-5 different prize packages into the 2010 Aussie Millions, each prize package worth about $14,500, and each one including a free entry into a special $50,000 freeroll, exclusive to Full Tilt Poker qualifier winners, along with the usual hotel accommodations and spending money.

Some of the qualifiers are already over, this promotion having begun earlier in the month. But there's still a whole other month ahead, with even more opportunities to get in the game, ending with a January 9 event in which 5 players (minimum) will win prize packages into the 2010 Aussie Millions. Freerolls into the event are for Australia and New Zealand residents only, but everyone else can at least get in on all the rest of the action, with satellites into these $535 qualifiers having buy-ins as low as 50 FTPs and $0.50.

Two New Moneymaking Features With New Full Tilt Software

The big news over at Full Tilt Poker these days is the release of the latest update of the FullTilt poker software. The buzz is especially big because included in the update are 2 features that make it easier for Full Tilt poker players to walk away from the table (or rather, their computer) with money.

One feature is called Run It Twice and it could be familiar to viewers of Poker After Dark on NBC or Face the Ace, also on NBC, both of which were sponsored by Full Tilt Poker. With Run It Twice, if there are only two players left in a hand in a real money cash ring game table at Full Tilt, if both players have gone all-in, they can agree to activate the Run It Twice feature and have the dealer lay two River cards (and if the eligibility requirements and met and the agreement comes before the Turn, then two Turns too). Then the pot is split in two and the winner of each outcome gets half. This allows both players a chance to leave the hand a winner. And it gives both of them two chances to stay in the game without rebuying.

Stay tuned for a future post when we describe the second new Full Tilt feature, the one for tournament players, called Cashout Tournaments.

Satellites For Newly Scheduled FTOPS XIV Running Now

Satellites are running now for the next installment of the Full Tilt Online Poker Series. In addition to releasing the schedule for FTOPS XIV - which promises a $16 million guaranteed total prize pool including a $2.5 million main event, and 6 events in all with $1 million guarantees or higher - Full Tilt also put out its schedule of FTOPS XIV satellites.

Satellites for FTOPS XIV are going on daily now, including a new innovation in FTOPS satellites, what FullTilt calls the FTOPS Warm-Up. This is a satellite into the FTOPS XIV Main Event that has a buy-in of only $5 + .50. Super Satellites into the FTOPS Warm-Up also exist, these with buy-ins of only 50 Full Tilt Points or $0.50.

The FTOPS XIV has 25 events, running November 4th through 15th, and includes events in NL Holdem, Limit Holdem, PL Omaha and PL Omaha Eight or Better, H.O.R.S.E., Razz, and Study Eight or Better. Many of the events are 6-max, rebuy, addon, shootout, knockout, or turbo events.

A Mini-FTOPS XIV follows, from December 9th through 20th.

Mini-FTOPS XIII Results & A Surprise

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

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.

Dwan Up, Aiken Down – Full Tilt Player Update

Lots of exciting developments over at Full Tilt Poker.

For starters, it looks like the site has been courting Tom 'durrrr" Dwan of the self-proclaimed Million Dollar Challenge to be one of the next players on its esteemed Team Full Tilt. No word on whether durrrr has any plans of accepting. But if you ask us, he kind of owes it to them. After all, it's on Full Tilt Poker's high-rollers Pot Limit Omaha tables that he's faced off with some of poker toughest competitors (including current November 9 member - Phil Ivey). Howard "The Professor" Lederer, a member of Team Full Tilt, says that "if the price is right" he's sure Dwan will accept.

And in a case of easy-come-easy-go, Phil "OMGClayAiken" Galfond, who was Full Tilt's second highest money winner last year is currently reported to be down by over 4,000. Just goes to show that the pendulum is always swinging in online poker.
