Full Tilt's FTOPS X Scheduled for November
Online poker site Full Tilt has just released the schedule for the tenth installment of its tri-annual event. The Full Tilt of Poker Series (FTOPS) is scheduled to get underway November 5th, with 25 events taking place over 11 days. FTOPS X will be upping the prize money yet again, this time guaranteeing roughly $16 million spread throughout the series.
Six events in the FTOPS X will see a guaranteed prize pool of $1 million or more, with another six guaranteeing at least $500,000. The series is widely known to exceed the guaranteed prize pools, giving players even more reasons to register.
Two of the most popular events, the two-day event and the Main Event, return again this series. The two-day event features two major changes this time around; an increase in entry from $2,600 to $5,200 and a change in format to 6-max. The Main Event features the usual $535 buy-in and a guaranteed prize pool of $2.5 million.
Previous FTOPS series have seen thousands of entrants take to the virtual felt, with over 5,000 participants in the last Main Event alone. More information on FTOPS X can be found at fulltiltpoker.com.
