Full Tilt Poker launches the nineteenth incarnation of their popular miniFTOPS (Mini Full Tilt Online Poker Series) on March 06, 2011. The 45 events of miniFTOPS XIX will total over $8 million in guaranteed money. Those that followed the recently finished FTOPS XIX will notice that all of the mini events are 1/10th of the buyin as their bigger cousin. The new $1,000 + $60 No Limit Hold ‘em Heads Up Event with a guaranteed prize pool of $100K sort of makes the "mini" a tad ironic. A bunch of the events will feature the new Multi-Entry tournament format. The 2-day event with a $200 + $16 buy-in and $600K guaranteed prize pool is another highlight. And it all culminates with the MiniFTOPS Main Event, with a $70 + $5 buy-in and $1.25 million in guaranteed prize money.
MiniFTOPS Prizes
There is more than money on the line when you play in a MiniFTOPS event. All players who make the final table of a MiniFTOPS event will receive a limited-edition MiniFTOPS jacket. Winners from each event will receive the jacket and a silver MiniFTOPS jersey to go along with their 1st place prize money.
Finish first on the MiniFTOPS Leaderboard and receive a special prize package which includes entry to every FTOPS XX event (except the Two-Day and $10,000 Heads Up Events). The prize package is expected to be worth approximately $14,000 in tournament entries.
