The 29th edition of Full Tilt Online Poker Series (FTOPS) has been announced by the online poker site. The series starting 21st February brings over $1 million in guaranteed prize money across 46 events. One of the flagship poker series of Full Tilt since 2006, the FTOPS will be running for 3 weeks in its 29th installment (full schedule below). The Main Event: $500 NL Hold’em Full Ring 2x RET – $250,000 guaranteed prize pool will be played on 13th March 2016.
In the entire duration of series, 2 events will be played daily from Monday to Saturday while Sundays will bring 3 tournaments. One of the major changes brought by Full Tilt this season is terminating the Mini FTOPS and incorporating the lower buy-in tournaments in FTOPS, instead. Moreover, the cumulative guarantees of the FTOPS have gone down this season which is evident from the Main Event GTD prize pool which stands at $250,000 instead last year’s $1 million.
Golden Parachute
Full Tilt has also launched FTOPS Golden Parachute which gives an opportunity to the satellite players a second chance to win the ticket in freeroll events. The players who do not win event tickets from the satellites can play these exclusive freeroll events. The freerolls will be held each Sunday from February 21st through March 13th at 13:30 and will feed players directly into the FTOPS event that starts at 13:30 that same day. Here is the schedule of FTOPS Golden Parachute:
Week 1: Qualifications days Thursday, February 4th through Saturday, February 20th; 15 entries to FTOPS Event #1
Week 2: Qualification days Sunday, February 21st through Saturday, February 27th; 10 entries to FTOPS Event #16
Week 3: Qualification days Sunday, February 28th through Saturday, March 5th; 10 entries to FTOPS Event #31
