Full Tilt was today announced as the new sponsor of the prestigious Poker Million event, previously sponsored by Ladbrokes.
The Matchroom Sport produced event will again take place some time in December, with the first six qualifying heats for the 
72-player tournament starting in mid-July in London.
The second round of qualifiers will take place mid-October along with the second runners-up heat and the two semi-finals.
One FullTiltPoker.com qualifier will grace each of the 12 qualifying tables and the top prize in the event this year is $600,000.
Full Tilt pro Roland De Wolfe said, ““Full Tilt and Poker Million together, it’s like my best mate marrying my sister. I am excited to see my pals from the States – edog, Phil Ivey and Chris Ferguson – the top boys from the best poker-only site in Britain’s finest knockout poker event, and after I’ve knocked them out I’ll take them around the sights of London.”
The current champion is Marty Smyth, who produced a stunning comeback last year to secure the $1 million top prize.
