FTOPS XII Kicks Off 25-event Slate

Today marks the beginning of the twelfth Full Tilt Online Poker Series, with a combined guarantee of $18 million for all events. The popular series, now quarterly, consistently draws huge fields and is among the largest of all online series.

FTOPS XII runs May 6-17, 2009 and is highlighted by the final-day Main Event with its $2.5 million guarantee. The two-day “high roller” event also returns, which spans the final weekend of the series and features a $2,500+120 buy-in for this FTOPS. The high-roller event traditionally draws one of the toughest and most prestigious fields of all online tourneys.

FTOPS XII also introduces the new MiniFTOPS series, which runs side-by-side with the standard FTOPS slate and offers buy-ins exactly a tenth the size of the matching FTOPS tourney. The guarantees for the MiniFTOPS versions of the two-day and main events are $500,000 and $200,000.
