Full Tilt Offers 50 Free Main Event Seats

March 31, 2008

Full Tilt Poker is running an enormous promotion right now.  Over the next few months, they’re giving away FIFTY (50) Main Event seats at the World Series of Poker.  Each seat is worth the $10,000 entry plus extra cash for expenses, travel, and lodging.  This is quite a promotion, and we’ll give you all the details on how to get in on this.

From now until Sunday, June 22nd players can enter as many Main Event Round 1 Sit n Go’s as they want.  These sit and go’s are free for entry, and run all day long.  The winners of those 9 man sit and go’s advance to the Main Event Round 2 Freerolls.  These run four times a day, and the top 2 finishers advance to the weekly Main Event Finals Freeroll.  This tournament is held each week on Sunday at 16:30 ET.

Since there are 4 daily Round 2 tournaments, the Finals Freeroll will have 56 players in each one.  If you reach the Finals freeroll, all you have to do is get 1st, 2nd, or 3rd and you’ll be on your way to Las Vegas because you’ve just earned a completely free WSOP Main Event seat!

There are also a few ways you can speed up your qualifying instead of playing all 3 of the tournaments.  If you make your first deposit at Full Tilt using our Full Tilt Poker Referral Code, you’ll get an entry ticket directly into the Round 2 tournament instead of having to qualify via the sit and go. This entry ticket can also be gained by successfully referring a friend to the Full Tilt site.

Also, you can earn your way right to the finale if you earn 3,000 Full Tilt Points in one week before the Sunday finale starts.  Have fun, and good luck!

Also, when you enter tournaments or sit and go’s you’ll receive FPP’s based on how large the tournament fee is. Every $1 you pay in tournament fees is worth 7 FPP’s.

Different Internet Poker Rooms - We Rate Them

March 17, 2008

In this day and age there are tons of poker rooms to play internet poker at, and it seems all of them offer the same thing - sign up bonuses, great support, great traffic, big tournaments, etc. Well, if you’re looking for a room to play at, it gets hard to choose from seemingly cloned poker rooms that all look the same. This article will look at a few of the bigger poker sites, and tell you why each one is unique, and what one is best for you.

We’ll start by checking out PokerStars. They claim to be the biggest online poker site, and they’re telling the truth there. On Sundays, when they run their weekly Sunday Million Tournament ($215 buy-in), you’ll often find over 100,000 players logged onto the site. This is well higher traffic then any of the other rooms. Although PokerStars only offers a $50 sign up bonus, we still have them as our best overall poker room. The reason we say that is because of their outstanding tournament lineup. All week long you can find amazing tournaments with great prize pools, and their structure is superb.

Next, we’ll take a look at Full Tilt. If you are thinking about playing Full Tilt, don’t go there just because of their bonus, because it’s actually kind of hard to clear. The reason you should play Full Tilt is because of their great cash tables. They have enormous ring table traffic, and at the low-mid limits you’ll find plenty of fishy tables for you to win money at. Another thing we liked about Full Tilt is that when a pro is at a table, they highlight the table red, so you can watch pros play and learn from them all the time.
