It seems as though the dust has only just cleared from the Full Tilt Online Poker Series (FTOPS) V, but here we are again, just a few days away from the start of FTOPS VI, which will run November 7-18. In keeping with the pattern, Full Tilt has increased the total guaranteed prize pool once again, this time guaranteeing at least $9 million across fifteen tournaments. The Series culminates with the $500+$35, $1.5 million guaranteed Main Event. Aside from some slight event changes, most everything is the same as last time. The bonus prizes (Full Tilt gear and gold avatars) are back, as is the Satellite Challenge. Added to FTOPS this go-round is the "Bouncebackability" Freeroll, which gives those who just missed the money a chance to still win something. The fifteen players who miss cashing in an event by one spot will each earn an exclusive entry into the Freeroll. The winner of the freeroll will receive a free seat into the Main Event of the next FTOPS. Below is the complete schedule for FTOPS VI. Note that two days have two events each and one event will span two days.
