Guinnes World Record Largest Online Poker Tournament

Posted under poker & poker news & poker tournament

Full Tilt Poker will attempt to stamp its name on the Guinness Records and to do so; the site has announced that it will try to set a new record for the Largest Online Poker Tournament. Full Tilt’s Record Breaker tournament was unveiled as the finale to FIVE, a week of events and promotions created exclusively to celebrate the site’s 5th anniversary. The tournament will take place on July 19th at 15:05ET, players can buy in for this event for only $5 or 1000 Full Tilt Points and compete for a share of a $250,000 guaranteed with $250,000 added prize pool. Players can also get entries to this event by playing the online satellites available on the site and starting for as little as 30 cents or 50 Full Tilt Points.

Team Full Tilt pros and WSOP bracelet winners Howard Lederer, Chris Ferguson and Phil Ivey have already confirmed they will take part in the event, offering players the chance to sit down at this historic tournament and play with some of the best high stakes and tournament pros in the world.

“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,” said Team Full Tilt member Howard Lederer.

Putting together a poker tournament of this magnitude would be nearly impossible for any brick and mortar casino or poker room. The current record for the largest “live” poker tournament was set at the 2006 WSOP Main Event with 8,772 players. To break the current Guinness Record set by PokeStars.com in December, 2008, Full Tilt Poker will need to attract over 35.000 players. If successful, this tournament will establish Full Tilt Poker as World Record holder and cement its reputation as a world leader in online poker industry.

Full Tilt Poker’s New durrrr Challenge Page Unveiled

Posted under poker & poker news & poker tournament & texas hold em

Full Tilt has just opened an innovative info section covering all the action of the “Durrrr Challenge”, an incredible online heads up tournament highlighting some of the world’s best big money online poker players challenging the poker sensation Tom “durrrr” Dwan.

The brand new section gives poker players and followers the chance to stay on top of this amazing durrrr challenge and receive frequent statistical updates. With this brand new “durrrr Challenge” website players can track all the action and look at each poker hand played during durrrr Challenge, and look at lots of stats, including number of hands played, session time, amount won, average won during each hand and much more.

Close to six months ago, the twenty-three year old online poker player issued a heads-up challenge for any poker player with the money, time and capability to accept it. Any player entering the challenge has to bet $500,000 against Tom’s $1.5 million. Tom’s challenge specifies that at least 50,000 online poker hands need to be played simultaneously at 4 or more tables of no-limit Hold’em or pot-limit Omaha. At the end of the durrrr challenge, the poker player who has more money will earn the pool. Basically if you enter the challenge and win $1 after the 50,000 poker hands, then you will get Tom’s $1.5 Million, but if he wins by $1 then he will take your $500,000.

To date, a number of poker players have consented to play the “durrrr challenge”, including WSOP Champ Phil Ivey and David Benyamine, yet, only Patrick Antonius has accepted the durrrr challenge. At this point, both poker stars have engaged in a total of 20,647 poker hands out of 50,000, with durrrr ahead $726,546 total.
