  • Try the Same Tourney Multiple Times

    If you are a fan of tournaments carrying enormous 1st place prizes on the top Texas Holdem sites, you should definitely play on Full Tilt since they have double guarantees between the 24th and 30th of January. Every tournament with a guaranteed prize pool will have double the usual amount guaranteed between those dates, which means that your chance to score huge is even bigger than usual. If you have dreams of winning large wads of cash playing poker on the Fulltiltpoker download, now is the time to do it!

    As if doubled guarantees weren't enough, the team in charge of the Full Tilt Poker referral code has introduced Multi Entry Tournaments. Multi Entry Tournaments enable you to enter the same MTT a number of times. As such, you could potentially multi-table a single tourney with the same Full Tilt name!

    If you decide to get the Full Tilt Poker download to participate in these interesting Multi Entry Tourneys, you would do well to be wary of some key terms and conditions. It is not possible to enter the same tournament more than 6 times, and it is possible to re-enter an event only if late registration is still going. As you probably already have guessed, the software will ensure that you cannot sit down with one of your other entries at the same table. If the number of entries you have ever exceeds the number of tables remaining, a couple of your stacks will be merged together to become one larger stack. Where money poker sites are concerned, this is a major breakthrough.

    Considering double guarantees with multi-entries, this coming Sunday is going to be like no other. The Double Deuce, which usually has a $200k prize pool, will guarantee an impressive $400k instead. If you are experienced with poker flash and you want to play much higher, definitely play the $750,000 Guarantee for $216 because it will feature an incredible $1.5 million prize pool.

  • Get Twice the Points During the New Happy Hour

    Recently Full Tilt Poker, one of the top Texas Holdem sites, has had a bunch of promotions regarding Full Tilt Points, and the most recent of the bunch is called “Short Handed Happy Hour”. Long time users of Full Tilt will be familiar with the normal Happy Hour promotion, but Happy Hour is typically during times when the traffic is fairly low. This latest promo offers all players the opportunity to receive extra Points no matter what time of day it is.

    This download free poker site is offering double Full Tilt Points at short handed cash tables between December 1st and January 31st. You might be surprised to learn that you can still earn double points at a Full Ring table. 9-handed tables are considered short handed when less than six players are being dealt cards. 6-max tables are short handed if there are three or fewer players. What could come out of this unique promotion? It is possible that the Full Ring games will initially have 6-max experts wanting to earn double Points. Or maybe Full Ring experts will try their hand in the short handed games. The point is, though, that this is a great way to get the games going on the Fulltiltpoker download.

    To find the short handed games quickly, look for the smiley face symbol in the lobby. Those new to US poker sites will probably enjoy the fact that Full Tilt made these Short Handed tables very easy to spot.

    The Full Tilt Store is jam packed with great items to purchase with your bonus Points. If you do not have much experience on Mac poker sites, the first thing you should buy is the Full Tilt Security Key which costs 5,000 Points. This will protect your account from being hacked into. Get this out of the way first, and then you can work towards buying a new jacket, monitor, or laptop.

    The extra Full Tilt Points bring a lot of extra value to the tables, essentially providing even more rakeback than usual. Considering FTOPS, Short Handed Happy Hour, and the promos that are sure to come in the new year, there are so many reasons to play cards in casinos for USA players in December.

  • From $0 to $10k

    Earlier this year I talked about Chris Ferguson, a popular pro that makes a living off Full Tilt Poker, one of the top Texas Holdem sites online today. That entry skimmed upon the fact that he once went from a $0 bankroll to a $10k bankroll. This accomplishment is notable since there are a lot of people out there that are not willing to wager any of their own money playing a card game. The Chris Ferguson Challenge proves that anyone can turn nothing into several thousand dollars on money poker sites by working hard and never giving up.

    The steps of the Chris Ferguson Challenge were straightforward: open an account on the Fulltiltpoker download, start with an empty account, and eventually finish with a $10k bankroll. Ferguson promised that he would give this profit to the Save the Children Foundation when it was said and done.

    Good players know that in order to succeed on the best US poker sites, they must manage their bankrolls properly. Because of this, Ferguson had a few rules for his challenge:

    1) Enter freerolls until there is a enough real money in the bankroll.
    2) Refrain from entering a STT on the Full Tilt Poker download for greater than five percent of the total bankroll. The one exception is for $2.50 buy-ins.
    3) Refrain from entering a multi-table tournament for greater than 2% of the total bankroll. The one exception is for $1 buy-ins.

    The Chris Ferguson Challenge ended up taking a long time because cashing in freerolls on the best Mac poker sites is a daunting challenge. You might even be shocked to know that it was over 7 months before Ferguson had a steady bankroll of $6.50! Ferguson fought through this bad variance like a pro, of course. He finally scored relatively huge with a runner-up finish in a 683 field. It was a $1 tourney and he won $104.

    This huge boost for the bankroll meant no more freerolls, but there was still plenty of work ahead. To make a lot of money fast you must be incredibly lucky, even on US friendly poker sites. It took him an additional nine months before he finally succeeded and had $10,000.

    The most important thing to note about the Chris Ferguson Challenge is that it is almost impossible to succeed at such a challenge while lacking bankroll management. You should be able to find some useful free poker training about bankroll management if you need some help. If you have been in the game for a while, you probably know that protecting your bankroll is essential for long term success.

  • Do You have a Black Card?

    Full Tilt Poker introduced the Black Card to show that they really are on the list of top Texas Holdem sites online today. It is basically a variety of perks offered to those that play a high volume of hands every month. Such extras include double Full Tilt Points, personalized customer service, and an exclusive Black Card store. Those accepted into this club will receive a Black Card in the mail.
     
    Players need to log a ton of hours on their Full Tilt download in order to attain the Black Card status. To get into the club, players must earn an average of 500 Full Tilt Points over 100 days. This basically means 50,000 Full Tilt Points must be earned over the course of 100 days. This is no easy task, especially for microstakes players. Unlike the highest VIP status on PokerStars, though, the Fulltiltpoker download does not make their players wait a year to receive their rewards.

    When it comes to VIP stores on download free poker sites, the items that get the most interest are usually cash bonuses. The Black Card store has bonuses between $50 and $2,000 for sale, and each bonus has a different Full Tilt Point price tag. An unfortunate feature of this new program is that the cash is not available for use right away. Players need to clear the bonus by playing real money games, and the rate of clearance is $0.04/Full Tilt Point. Earning a bonus with a PokerStars marketing code is done in exactly the same way. Players will have a total of 90 days to clear the bonus.

    Now what about the other perks mentioned, the extra Full Tilt Points and unique customer support? Every hand played under a Black Card membership will earn you twice as many Full Tilt Points. During Happy Hour, you will earn so many points that you won’t want to play on any poker flash sites. When it comes to the special customer service, each Black Card member will receive both a welcome email and personalized physical Black Card sent to their home address. Both the email and the Black Card has the email address of their very own customer support representative. I’m pretty sure that this is the only Mac poker site that offers personalized support.

    PokerStars (which is one of the best US poker sites) offers Supernova, Full Tilt offers the Black Card. Many players are pleased that they can attain Black Card status in mere months. The quest for Supernova takes most players an entire year to accomplish. It’s still a new promo, though, so we’ll see how it all pans out in the end.

    While the entire series is something to look forward to, the folks in charge of the Full Tilt Poker download are extremely enthusiastic about their Rush Poker events.

If this appeals to the gambler in you, be sure to put Event 33 into your schedule so that you can have the chance to earn part of its $350k guaranteed prize pool.

    If you do not want to shell out over $200 to compete for a $1 million prize pool, choose Full Tilt over a Titanpoker download this week.

    To give low stakes players the chance to try a two day event, Full Tilt is offering Event 29, a $200+$16 short-handed NLHE tournament. Players will compete for a $600,000 prize pool, and to make things a bit more interesting, the structure has antes in the first blind level. In US poker rooms, there is nothing more exciting than knowing you have made it to day 2 of a huge poker event, so tournament enthusiasts won’t want to miss this one.

    As per FTOPS tradition, you will win more than just money if you can make it to the top. People making final tables during the series will win limited edition MiniFTOPS jackets. If you can win an event, you will also receive a silver MiniFTOPS jersey. Money poker sites often offer leaderboards for their players, and Full Tilt is no exception. If you finish first on the MiniFTOPS Leaderboard, you will get a bunch of tournament buy-ins worth $10,000! With this package, you will be able to enter nearly every event in FTOPS XVIII.

    From reading my blog you already know that Full Tilt is one of the best US poker sites online for a variety of reasons. Their commitment to providing great tournament series, however, shows they are working to be the number one download free poker site period, especially for multi-table tournaments. If you love fast paced tournament action and giant first place prizes, you know what you have to do to get it. Good luck!
