FullTilt is moving ahead despite the recent online gambling ban. In the latest move to prove that the online poker room is still conducting "business as usual,"
FullTilt.com has announced that it will be a major sponsor of the
Dublin All-Star Challenge scheduled to take place this month at the Sporting Emporium in Dublin, Ireland.
FullTilt sponsorship guarantees winners will be competing for a €400,000 prize pool, as they've been running regularly scheduled qualifying events since September. The
All-Star packages are worth $8,000, including a seat in the
Dublin Challenge, $4,000 for travel expenses, and a chance to play on television.
The
Dublin All-Star Challenge is part of the
European Poker Masters poker tour launched earlier this year. Gus Hansen won London's event and came away with £53,600.
FullTilt members will arrive in full force, including Chris Ferguson, Howard Lederer, Erik Seidel, and Mike Matusow.
