Its a neat strategy, which helps the best players, as there is a greater chance of good players being able to make even more money, because the true skill is more likely to come through 4 tables than just 1.  You can also get more reads on your opponents since they are the same in 4 tables at the same time.

Full Tilt Poker is back with another 25K heads up championship, this time in Pot Limit Omaha.  Once the event plays down to the semi-finals, leaving 4 players, sweat tournaments will be set up, where you can play in $10 multi-table tournaments of the pro you think will win the heads up championship.  If your pro goes on to win the heads up tournament and you make the final table in the sweat tournament you win a share of the $5000 in added money as shown below:

1st – $1500
2nd – $1000
3rd – $800
4th – $600
5th – $400
6th – $250
7th – $200
8th – $150
9th – $100

You can only play in one of the remaining pro’s sweat tournaments and cheer them on as you work your way to the final table.  The sweat tournaments will start at 3:30pm EST on Sunday, September 7th.

Overview
I played in the Brian Hastings sweat tournament during the 25K NL hold’em heads up championship and have to say it was fun flipping back and forth between my tournament and Brian’s heads up tournament.  David Singer went on to win that heads up championship, and if memory serves me right, the least number of players joined his sweat tournament, which shows he was looked at as the underdog.  If you enjoy watching pro’s play heads up, and are interested in playing a great value tournament, you should definitely play the sweat tournaments.

Happy HourI love all happy hour promotions. Whether it be cheap drinks at a bar or double and triple your Full Tilt Points. I’d even go as far as to say the latter happy hour is more appealing to me.

At several two-hour intervals throughout the day, Full Tilt hosts various types of happy hours. My favourite is the late night 11pm to 1am anything goes happy hour. This is a normal poker playing time for me anyways, but with the happy hour promotion, I feel like I would be crazy to miss it.

Full Tilt Points can basically be considered rakeback, because they carry monetary value. With your Full Tilt Points you can do anything from buying a stylish Full Tilt cap, winning seats in large tournaments, to even purchasing a Mini Cooper S. To me, these happy hour times just can’t be passed up.

It’s funny, if I’m on Full Tilt playing some NL hold ‘em and then 7pm rolls around, I will immediately get out of all my games, and start playing Limit hold ‘em, because as everyone knows …… Limit hold ‘em happy hour is from 7pm to 9pm daily! Even though it’s not my game of choice, I still feel compelled to take advantage of this promotion.I thoroughly enjoy this Full Tilt happy hour promotion and it looks like it will continue right until the end of the year. To me that means a lot of happy hours playing at Full Tilt. So just keep an eye out for those smiley yellow faces at the following times and you too will get hooked on this promotion.
“Early Morning” – 6am to 8am – All ring games and tournaments
“Ring Game” – 3pm to 5pm – All ring games
“Limit Ring Game” – 7pm to 9pm – Limit ring games
“Late Night” – 11pm to 1 am – Anything goes

*These are the mid-week times. The times change slightly on weekends.

So, FTOPS is back again on August 6th, and once again they are hyping it to be the best ever. And would Full Tilt lie to you about something like that? Of course not. This FTOPS is once again building off its successful predecessors with more than $15 million to be won over 25 events.

These 25 events include every kind of poker Full Tilt offers, as well as every type of tournament. This includes stud, Omaha, razz, HORSE, limit hold ‘em and of course many types of no limit hold ’em tournaments such as shootouts, six handed, heads up, and more.
The two big events that will be getting the most attention through this FTOPS are once again the $2500 – 2-day – $2 Million Guaranteed hosted by Patrik Antonius, and of course the massive FTOPS XI $2.5 Million Guaranteed Main Event on the 17th of August. To play in the main event it will cost you $500 + $35 or you can win your way through one of the many, many, many satellites that will be running.

Once again the popular Satellite Challenge promotion will be in full swing, with players trying to win the most satellites to any particular FTOPS event. The player who wins the most seats to an event receives the T$ equivalent of two more buy-ins to that event and second place receives the equivalent of one more buy-in. I have found that certain events just aren’t tried for that much, so this year I’m going to try to find an event that isn’t sought after, and go for the win.Wish me luck :D !

I will be trying to win my best satellites over and over and then use the T$ to play in as many FTOPS tournaments as I possibly can. I’ve played in a few FTOPS tournaments in the past and haven’t faired too well, so I’m thinking I must be due. (ha the gambler’s fallacy at its finest :P )
