			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Full Tilt Poker has decided to increase the ante in its schedule of monthly guaranteed tournaments with the introduction of the Full Tilt Poker $1,000,000 Monthly Guarantee Tournament.</p>
<p>The tournament itself has a $535 buy-in, but players can satellite in throughout the month, with buy-ins for $1M Monthly Guarantee satellites at 50 Full Tilt Points or $1 and up.</p>
<p>If you win more than one satellite, all those after your first land you $535.</p>
<p>Full Tilt is running multiple ongoing 4 player, 9 player, 36 player, and 54 player Sit &#8216;n Gos daily, as well as schedule tournaments every few minutes throughout the day. All at a wide array of buy-ins.</p>
<p>And here&#8217;s a nice bonus: the $1M <a href="http://www.fulltiltpokerbonuscode.co.uk/2009/05/memorial-day-sunday-means-big-money-day-at-full-tilt/">Full Tilt Monthly Guarantee Tournament</a> Satellite Challenge, a side-bet of sorts. Just keep winning those satellites and climb up the leaderboard. Whoever ends the month atop the leaderboard for the most number of $1,000,000 Monthly Guarantee Satellites won, wins $1,000. Second gets $500.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When a poker site runs a Guaranteed Tournament, the money in that guaranteed prize pool is typically expected to come from the buy-ins of the players entering the competition. But when not enough entrants sign up for a tournament, the poker site doesn&#8217;t have enough buy-in money to cover the entire guaranteed prize pool amount, and so has to fork up the difference from their own coffers. This is called an &#8220;overlay&#8221;, and it&#8217;s what Full Tilt Poker had to face multiple times during its FTOPS XII.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.fulltiltpokerbonuscode.co.uk/category/ftops/">Full Tilt Online Poker Series</a> 12 has just ended and the players, of course, are happy as ever. The FullTilt Poker operators? Not so much. Just look at the main event, for one&#8230;</p>
<p>The FTOPS XII main event had a scant 4,581 players paying the $500 + $35, bringing the prize pool to about $2.3 million. Only problem is, the guarantee was $2.5 million, so Full Tilt had to cover the remaining $200,000 from their &#8220;profits&#8221;. With only $160,000 raked in from the $35 entry fees, Full Tilt took an over $40,000 loss on this event.</p>
