Full Tilt has released plans to launch a new tournament series called The Stack, with $750,000 worth of guarantees and a chance to win a $13,000 package to watch UFC 189 in Las Vegas.
The poker world is currently gripped in a hypnotic state brought on by the superlative Spring Championships of Online Poker (SCOOP), so why stop there?
Full Tilt is taking a leaf out of their sister’s book by launching a new tournament series of their own. It carries the name ‘The Stack’, features 16 events, caters for all types of bankrolls, and hits your computer screens at the end of the month.
The series has buy-ins ranging from $2,50 to $500, will offer $700,000 in guaranteed prize money, and one lucky winner will win a $13,000 package to fly to Las Vegas and watch Aldo and McGregor fighting it out for the featherweight title at UFC 189, Sat July 11.
The winner of each tournament will qualify for a Tournament of Champions event (both low and high). The winner of the High Tournament will win the aforementioned UFC package, a two-month customer Black Card Pro sponsorship, and a $1,000 FTOPS Main Event seat. The winner of the Low Tournament also wins that custom Black Card sponsorship, a $1,000 FTOPS Main Event seat, and a seat in the High Tournament of Champions. The Tournament of Champions action will be streamed live on Twitch.
