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.

Posted under Poker & internet poker & online poker & online poker sites & poker tournaments & professional poker & tournament poker

Full Tilt has just unveiled an innovative informative site involving all the excitement of the “Durrrr Challenge”, an incredible online heads up tournament presenting some of the finest big money online players competing against the online poker star Tom “durrrr” Dwan.

The brand new section presents poker players and fanatics the opportunity to follow this incredible internet poker challenge and get timely statistical updates. With this innovative “durrrr Challenge” site players can track all the action and look at each poker hand played during the poker challenge, and get lots of statistics, including how many hands were played, session time, amount won, average won during each hand and lots more.

Around six months ago, the 23 year old internet poker professional issued a heads-up poker challenge open to any poker player with the money, time and ability to accept it. Any poker player entering the durrrr challenge has to put up $500,000 against Tom’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.

Online Texas Hold’em Poker Investigation Story will be shown on TV

Posted under internet poker & online poker & online poker sites

60 minutes
On Sunday, November 30th the CBS network will present their documentary “How Online Gamblers Unmasked Cheaters”. This documentary was shot after a sixteen week research into the online Texas Hold’em industry and specifically a cheating scandal concerning the online poker webpage Absolute Poker.

This Texas Hold’em poker site was examined after some of the Texas Hold’em poker players on the website alleged that someone was unfairly winning an incredible amount of money. Todd Witteles was a vital witness in this research, according to Witteles; he was losing great amounts of money to the very same Texas Hold’em poker player. Witteles alleges that this player was raising against extremely good poker hands, most people would have thought he was basically giving his money to the other players, but he was in reality winning quite often.

Witteles was in the right with his suppositions, it was later exposed that a person on the inside was able to watch anyone’s poker hole cards. At first, Absolute Poker claimed that there was no wrongdoing with the website or the Texas Hold’em poker player. After numerous players stepped up with allegations, the Texas Hold’em site examined deeper into the problem and uncovered the mystery.

By January of 2008, the Kahnawake Gaming Commision came across what the Texas Hold’em competitors and the Texas Hold’em poker website had supposed all along. As it turns out, there was an employee who had invaded the Texas Hold’em page’s security system and was competing unlawfully for more or less six weeks. The investigation verified that the poker room had not gained from the dishonest behavior at all, and was definitely not implicated.

These scams are further proof that there should be more rules in regards to online Texas hold’em pages. The U.S. government ought to authorize and control the internet gambling industry to look after these upright consumers. These regulations would also police the access to these sites by kids, which tends to be another concern recently.
