I wonder if FTP will try to regain this record :1orglaugh
Wow, that must have been amazing to play, I was part of FTP's 50,000 record tournament but I guess that records are meant to be broken :p
I wonder if FTP will try to regain this record :1orglaugh
I doubt full tilt will be able to beat this record anytime soon... pokerstars has way more people playing, fulltilt has about 150 , 000 people playing in peak hours... which would mean that ALL the peopel would have to play i nthe peak hours in order to break the record... i wish i was part of this tournamet

I lasted to the first break, which was a great accomplishment. LOL. X
Wow to the first break that's great😡!!
This is like the Fulltilt 250,000 for $5, too many people, is more a lucky game that a poker game.
Yea luck at that point becomes a large part of it.
How many online pros participate in this tournament?
