Guinness World Record for Largest Online Poker Tournament

Posted under online poker & poker tournament & 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.

Full Tilt Poker unveils new “Durrrr Challenge” Info page

Posted under Poker & online poker & poker tournament

FullTiltPoker.net has just unveiled an innovative informative section involving all the facts of the “Durrrr Challenge”, an amazing online heads up poker tournament presenting some of the most talented big money online players challenging the poker sensation Tom “durrrr” Dwan.

The innovative new website offers online poker players and followers the opportunity to follow this amazing internet poker challenge and receive frequent statistical updates. With this new “durrrr Challenge” section poker players can view all the details and review each hand played during durrrr Challenge, and check out lots of statistics, including how many hands were played, session time, amount won, average won during each hand and lots more.

Close to six months ago, the 23 year old online poker professional dealt out a heads-up poker challenge open to any player with the cash, time and ability to accept it. Any player entering the Full Tilt durrrr challenge has to put up $500,000 against Tom’s $1.5 million. Dwan’s challenge specifies that at least 50,000 poker hands need to be played at the same time at 4 or more poker tables of no-limit Hold’em or pot-limit Omaha. At the end of the heads up challenge, the player who has more cash will win the pool. Essentially if you enter the durrrr challenge and win $1 after the 50,000 hands, then you will take home Tom’s $1.5 Million, but if he wins by $1 then he will take your $500,000.

So far, a few poker players have consented to play the “durrrr challenge”, including WSOP Champ Phil Ivey and David Benyamine, yet, only Patrick Antonius has said yes to the durrrr challenge. At this point, both players have participated in a total of 20,647 poker hands out of 50,000, with durrrr up by $726,546 total.

Is Bragging in Poker Games a Smart Tactic or a Dumb Idea?

Posted under Poker & poker bluff & poker tournament

poker tips
Certainly the most despicable personalities at the no limit Texas Hold’em poker table time and time again will forever be the bragger. You know the poker player I’m speaking of. He’s the one that finds a seat at the Texas Hold’em table and makes clear you’re aware that he desires all of your Texas Hold’em Poker chips; exiting the poker table with the very same posture that he rolled up with. Even if he doesn’t win, he has in his mind that he is the greatest no limit Texas Hold’em poker player on the globe.

As the majority of poker players would sooner shun competition of this variety, there are other poker players who could say that showing-off may have its compensation. So, the question is: Is there in all reality a skillful no-limit Texas Hold’em show-off or dishonest Texas Hold’em Poker attention-seeker? Showing-off about how proficient you are in no limit Texas Hold’em poker is mainly just like admitting: “I am the most skilled no limit Texas Hold’em poker player in the world, make sure to stay on your A-game while you’re competing in a poker game against me!” No doubt, that is the most terrible vibe you are going to want to give off playing Texas Hold’em. Also, giving away too much information about your no-limit Texas Hold’em playing approach can be quite harmful to your Texas Hold’em game. You definitely do not want these people to find out how you bet on specific poker hands.

In addition there are those poker competitors who may use shooting off their mouths as a kind of poker trick, or bluff. Showing-off when you get a specific no-limit Texas Hold’em hand may throw your opponents for a loop and stump them about your no-limit Texas Hold’em playing technique. Some could consider this plan a bit deceitful, but it is key to remember that there are not too any regulations against it in no limit Texas Hold’em poker. No limit Texas Hold’em poker is all about working with what you got and exploiting it to the max.
