Full Tilt Online Poker Series XIII AnnouncedFTOPS Returns in August with $16 Million Guaranteed |
|
FullTiltPoker.com has announced its Online Poker Series XIII with 25 wide-ranging events in store and a total guaranteed prize pool of more than $16 million including the $2.5 million guaranteed in the main event.
The Series kicks off on Aug. 5 and will run until Aug. 16, and as usual, each event will be hosted by a pro.
Anyone who makes it to the final table of an FTOPS event will get a limited edition FTOPS jacket, and the player who wins will not only get the jacket, but also a gold FTOPS jersey and gold jersey avatar for use on the site.
The player who comes first on the FTOPS XIII leaderboard will receive a custom avatar and a package worth $7,500, which includes entry to every event in the next series, excluding the two-day event.
The last Series’ $500 buy-in finale attracted a field of 4,581 players, which meant an overlay on the $2.5 million prize pool. “Pocketownage420” took it down, earning himself a nice sum of $432,400.
For those who perhaps don’t have so big a poker budget, there is the MiniFTOPS coming up in September, with each event at one-tenth of the regular FTOPS buy-in. There will also be 25 events with a (thinner but still healthy) prizepool of $3 million on offer overall.
The inaugural $250 + $16 buy-in MiniFTOPS two-day event will kick off on Sept. 19 at 6 p.m. (GMT), and not to be taken lightly, this is a $400,000 guaranteed event.
