Full Tilt Poker's MiniFTOPS XXIII Begins Sunday with $3 Million in Guarantees
One of the most exciting online poker festivals is back. More than $3 million is up for grabs in Full Tilt Poker��s MiniFTOPS, which features low entry buy-ins with huge guarantees.
MiniFTOPS XXIII, which consists of 39 events across 15 days, begins Sunday, Sept. 8 and will run until Sept. 22. The schedule consists of various tournament types and structures including seven re-entry tournaments and five Rush Poker Tournaments.
Three new game variants recently introduced at Full Tilt Poker will also be implemented in the tournament series, including 5-Card Omaha (Event #9), 6-Card Omaha (Event #28), and Courchevel (Event #13).
Courchevel is a variant of Omaha in which players are dealt five hole cards instead of four before the flop, along with a single shared community card known as the flopet. On the flop, two more community cards are revealed. Courchevel then proceeds similarly to a standard Omaha hand, with players required to use exactly two of their five hole cards and three of the community cards to make the best five-card hand at showdown.
