Full Tilt Hosts Battle of the Bloggers
Mar 26, 2008By: Jennifer Newell In an effort to cater to an ever-growing part of its customer base, Full Tilt Poker is in the midst of its third running of the Battle of the Bloggers. Players will be awarded two seats into the 2008 WSOP main event, along with cash and other prizes.
The Battle of the Bloggers III started on Monday, March 3 and will continue for 13 consecutive weeks. Tournaments are held four nights each week, and one bonus event is held on the first Sunday of each month. Each event produces a winner who receives an entry into the Tournament of Champions on Saturday, June 7, which is when the prizes will be given out.
The Tournament of Champions winner and second place finisher will each receive a $10,000 seat into the 2008 World Series of Poker main event. Third and fourth place finishers will receive $2,000 Bracelet Race packages for the WSOP. And as tracked on the final leader board, the top 20 points finishers will not leave empty-handed. First through fifth place will receive cash prizes, and the remainder of the top 20 will win custom Full Tilt Poker jerseys.
In addition, every blogger who visits the Battle of the Bloggers III page of the Full Tilt website, and copies and pastes the badge on their personal blog for the duration of the tournament will receive an entry into a freeroll on Sunday, June 8. All entrants into the freeroll tournament will compete for a bonus $2,000 WSOP prize package.
