Last year, the main event was hosted by Phil Ivey and guaranteed 1.5 million with a hefty $2500 buy in, but still pulled in 899 of the best online poker players in the world.
Full Tilt FTOPS Satellites
This year, FullTiltPoker.com is adding in a FTOPS IX Satellite challenge. If you win your first entry into any of their FTOPS IX events and Full Tilt will automatically register you for that event. For every additional satellite seat you win to the same event, they give you T$ (tourney credits). If you win the most satellite entries above ALL other players they will give you the T$ equivalent of two more buy-ins. They also give something to 2nd place. In my opinion this satellite challenge is pretty weak unless you are a serious full tilt poker satellite player.
- $50 Daily Satellites - (7/10 - more available in lobby at lower buy-ins closer to start date)

FTOPS 2008 Bonuses
Along with the great tournament structure, seven figure prize pool guarantees FullTilt is sweetening the pot with a few cool bonuses. According to their site, if you final table an event you win a pretty sweet Full Tilt Poker limited edition “FTOPS Jacket”. It actually looks pretty sweet, much better than the Top 10 Dumbest Full Tilt Poker Gear choices. Fulltilt.com also offers the bubble player in every FTOPS event a seat in a ‘bouncebackability freeroll’ on the 23rd of August that gives a seat into the FTOPS main event. I guess it makes being the bubble boy less painful eh?
