Titan Poker Points Promotion Offering WSOP Main Event Prize Package
The Titan Poker Last Man Standing Promotion has taken over February of 2010. If players get enough Titan Poker Points, they could win seats to this year’s WSOP Main Event, cash prizes, and more!
With its World Challenge still raging , Titan Poker is already running another promotion – An intense month-long competition called, suitably, Last Man Standing.
The Titan Poker Promotion rules are as follows:
- All you have to do is play every day (after Feb. 1, 2010) and accumulate enough Titan Poker Points to remain in the running.
- Titan Poker will be counting the Player Points of all its players every day in February. Anyone who hasn’t reached their allotted requirement for the day is eliminated from the competition.
- Additional prizes will be awarded throughout the competition to players still in the running, with the first one being a $5,000 freeroll on February 28 for the players still standing at that time.
This process continues each day until there is only one player remaining in each poker group. What are the groups? The groups are based on your level in the Club Titan Poker Points ladder. The higher the level, the more groups you qualify for.
For example, Bronze to Titanium is one group. As a Bronze player, you only have to earn 20 points per day, to reach the top prize for that group ($100). All players are eligible for the top prize of the $13,000, and the 2010 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event prize package. To qualify, you have to accumulate 7,500 points.

Full Tilt Online Poker Site Introduces Speedy “Rush Poker” Game
Full Tilt Online Poker now offers the world’s fastest poker game – Rush Poker. Only available at Full Tilt Poker, the Rush Poker game’s aggressive and speedy playing style has already become a hit! 
We live in a fast-paced world, and the Full Tilt Online Poker site recognizes that. Ordinarily, online poker hands are already dealt at twice the speed than that of actual land-based poker rooms. Yet, this is still not fast enough for some online poker players. The only option these players had was multi-tabling – until NOW.
After introducing Rush Poker, Full Tilt Poker is making poker players’ adrenaline rush. Here’s what the new, speedy poker style is all about:
- In Rush Poker, when a player folds a weak hand, he doesn’t have to sit around and wait for the rest of the hand to finish being played out before getting to continue playing.
- Instead, the player is sent to another table (of the same table stakes of course) where a fresh hand is being dealt.
- This way, a player can continue playing online poker uninterrupted without having to sit and wait for the other players at the table to finish a hand he’s already folded out of.
So, in any given online Rush Poker session, a player is dealt an unbelievably greater proportion of hands than ever before possible in any regular poker session. It’s a new innovation that is sure to have players buzzing.
In fact, there’s already an incredible amount of action at the Full Tilt Poker Rush Poker tables – with around 400 – 1,500 players at FullTilt Rush Poker tables at any given time. Even Team Full Tilt Pros like Howard Lederer and Andy Bloch are already Twittering and blogging about it!

Beat The Brunson 10 Bounty Tournament Coming Up At Doyle’s Room
With Alec “traheho” Torelli no longer part of the lineup, Doyle Brunson’s Brunson 10, the group of exceptional online poker players Doyle Brunson is personally handpicking to represent his website, Doyle’s Room, in major media and world poker tournament events is now down to just 4 players. Doyle has said that he is looking to fill the other 6 spots this year.
On January 18th at 9 pm ET, Doyle’s Room Poker is holding a one-time Beat The Brunson 10 online poker tournament.
The Beat The Brunson 10 tournament was also a strong part of the poker site’s schedule last year, and it will be re-added to the Doyle’s Room tournament schedule starting February for the 1st and 3rd Sundays of each month.
In the meantime, the January 18th Beat The Brunson 10 tournament has a $10 + $10 + $2 buy-in. That’s really a $20 + $2 buy-in with $10 of it going to the prize pool and the other $10 going to the bounty.
Every time you knock out another player, you get $10, which can really start to add up, if you get on a roll. Then it doesn’t matter so much if you don’t make it all the way. You can still cash in at whatever level you make it to. If you knock out one of the online poker pros on the Brunson 10 (all four of them), you get an instant $500 bonus.
Those four players with $500 bounties on their heads are: Amit “amak316″, Chris “moorman1″ Moorman, Zachary “CrazyZachary”, and Dani “ansky” Stern.
