World Record for the Largest Online Poker Tournament.
In order to achieve this feat, they will need to host a tournament with
over 35,000 players in it, since that is the current record held by PokerStars, set last year on 28th of December. The Record Breaker tournament will be held on 19th of July, starting at 15:05 ET.
Team Full Tilt Pro members Phil Ivey, Howard Lederer and Chris Ferguson
are some of the big names expected to attend this event. Lederer
commented:
"By extending the limits of what is possible in online poker
tournaments, Full Tilt Poker will allow players to compete for a big
payout without the big buy-in."
Players can reserve their seats for $5 or 1,000 Full Tilt Points which
will allow them to compete for a share of the $250,000 guaranteed prize pool with an additional $250,000 added in prize money. Satellites are
also available, starting from as little as 30 cents or 50 Full Tilt Points.
