We all want to make a living off playing poker and in the coming weeks we have a chance to kick start our career with up to $140,000 up for grabs at Full Tilt Poker.
Full Tilt has three major Freeroll tournaments this month where you can win some serious cash. You will need to ‘opt in’ but we will explain how to do so below.
Full Tilt $5000 Freeroll Mayhem Flip
Try your luck at winning $5 grand every day this week at Full Tilt’s Flip Tournaments, which are tournaments that only require players to be registered for the tournament and not logged in to win. This is perfect for Aussies since we are on a different time zone as we will explain below.
This one has already kicked off but lucky for us it goes until Sunday, May 17. It is on every day at 7PM Eastern Time (ET), but for us Aussies its at 9AM Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) the following day (depending on where you are located in Australia you might be ahead or behind a few hours). For these tournaments, however, we only need to be registered and don’t have to be logged in to win, but just to be clear the last daily Flip Tournament to win $5000 for Australian players is on Monday, May 18.
In order to qualify for this event you need to play the day before and earn Full Tilt points. You can do this by playing any of the games on offer, provided they are with real money.
Then you will need to register for the event which can be done with the Tournament Ticket you receive with your points via the desktop Full Tilt platform. If you play and earn points to qualify on your smartphone or tablet, you will gain registration automatically.
Full Tilt $10,000 Freeroll Mayhem
This one doesn’t have as much freedom as the daily Flip Tournaments do as it is a regular No Limit Texas Hold’em tournament and requires players to be logged in.
This $10,000 Tournament will take place on Sunday, May 17 at 13:30PM ET, which is Monday, May 18, at 3:30AM AEST for Aussies players.
In order to qualify for this tournament you will need to be eligible for two of more of the above $5000 Flip Tournaments this week. If you do qualify for these events, you will automatically receive a ticket into this tournament which you can use to register for the event.
Full Tilt $25,000 Freeroll Mayhem
While the timezone differences definitely makes it hard for Australian poker players, this tournament is worth getting up in the early hours of the morning for, due to the massive $25,000 on offer.
For a chance at the massive prize money, play the No Limit Texas Hold’em Freerolls Tournament on Sunday, May 17, at 15:30PM ET, which is Monday, May 18, at 5:30AM AEST for Australian players.
Qualifying is simple, all you have to do is make a deposit, though the more you fund your Full Tilt account with the bigger your stack will be in the $25 grand tournament.
- For a 1500 chip stack, deposit $10 to $24.99
- For a 3000 chip stack deposit $25 to $49.99
- For a 6000 chip stack deposit $50 or more
It is important to note that if you make a withdrawal at anytime before this tournament you will not be eligible for a ticket into the $25,000 Freeroll Mayhem event.
