Full Tilt Poker to Host Largest Online Poker Tournament in the World

Posted under Poker & online poker & poker event & texas hold em

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.

FullTiltPoker.com launches new “Durrrr Challenge” Info page

Posted under Poker & online poker & poker event & poker tournament

FullTiltPoker.com has just launched a brand new informative site covering all the action of the “Durrrr Challenge”, an incredible online heads up tournament involving some of the finest big money poker players taking on the Heads Up Specialist Tom “durrrr” Dwan.

The new website section gives poker players and followers the chance to stay on top of this historical online poker challenge and check out timely updates. With this innovative “durrrr heads up Challenge” portal fans can track all the details and look at each poker hand played during this poker challenge, and look at lots of stats, including how many hands were played, time of session, cash won, average won during each hand and lots more.

Close to six months ago, the 23 year old online poker phenomenon dealt out a heads-up poker challenge for any poker player with the cash, time and talent to accept it. Any player entering the poker challenge has to bet $500,000 against durrrr’s $1.5 million. Dwan’s challenge states that at least 50,000 hands need to be played simultaneously at 4 or more poker tables of no-limit Hold’em or pot-limit Omaha. At the end of the poker challenge, the poker player who has more cash will secure the pool. Basically if you enter the Full Tilt Challenge and win a dollar after the 50,000 hands, then you will take home durrrr’s $1.5 Million, but if he succeeds by a dollar then he will take your $500,000.

So far, several poker players have accepted to play the “durrrr challenge”, including WSOP Champ Phil Ivey and David Benyamine, but, only Patrick Antonius has accepted the challenge. Thus far, both poker players have completed in a total of 20,647 poker hands out of 50,000, with Tom durrrr Dwan ahead $726,546 total.

Poker Investigation Story will be featured on TV

Posted under Poker & online poker & texas hold em

todd witteles
On Sunday, November 30th the CBS network will show their special program “How Online Gamblers Unmasked Cheaters”. This special was made after a 16-week study into the online poker business and in particular a deceitful scandal in relation to the online Texas Hold’em website Absolute Poker.

This Texas Hold’em room was examined after a number of the poker players on the site said that a player was unlawfully winning an incredible amount of cash. Todd Witteles was a major witness in this research, according to Witteles; he was losing incredible amounts of cash to the very same Texas Hold’em poker player. Witteles declared that this man was raising against extremely good cards, the majority of people would have guessed he was basically giving his money away, but he was incredibly winning money.

Witteles was correct with his suppositions, further down the line it was exposed that a player with knowledge of the site was able to spy on any player’s hole cards. At first glance, Absolute Poker claimed that nothing was wrong with the page or the Texas Hold’em poker player. After many more players showed up with charges of fraud, the poker website investigated further into the cheating problem and made the discovery.

In Jan. of this year, the KGC uncovered what the poker players and the poker website had supposed all along. As it turns out, there was a worker who had invaded the Texas Hold’em poker page’s protection and was competing illegally for more or less six weeks. The study proved that the Texas Hold’em webpage had not gained from the dishonest transactions by any means, and was in no way engaged in the activities.

These issues are further testimony that there should be more regulation regarding online gambling pages. The United States government should authorize and legalize the internet gambling industry to protect these upright clients. These laws would also control the admission to these sites by children, which is turning into another issue these days.
