Full Tilt unveils $2m Micro Turbo Online Poker Series
By RTR Dennis
Not every online poker series has to be an expensive affair. Full Tilt Poker proves this point since they recently unveiled a brand new Micro Turbo Online Poker Series (MTOPS). This event, which runs from June 9th-23rd, 2013, will offer $2 million guaranteed across 75 tournaments.
Everybody can participate in the action because buy-ins go as low as $0.55! There’ll also be satellites running where the lowest buy-ins are just $0.06. All 75 tournaments feature a Multi-Entry format, which allows players to enter a tourney several times.
The multiple entries should definitely come in handy for anybody who plays in the $1 million MTOPS Main Event on June 23rd. This huge tournament features a $15 buy-in, which is extremely cheap for such a big prize pool. Here is a quick look at some of the other major events that’ll be taking place in the inaugural MTOPS:
