http://p.fulltiltpoker.com/double-guarantees-week

For one week only – Monday, January 24th through Sunday, January 30th – we’re doubling the guaranteed prize money for every one of our Weekly Guarantees, culminating in one of the biggest Big Money Sundays ever.

In addition, we are converting all guarantee tournaments for the week to our new Multi Entry Tournament format.

Anyone going to play in any of these huge tournaments?

750K guarantee now 1.5 Mil.

I'll prob play the Daily Doller with 4 or 5 entries as prize pool would then be 20,000.

Exciting promotion, i noticed this on the ads that get posted on the left side of full tilt. I think it will attract a lot of attention and interest from the players.

FT Double Guaranteeds Promotion (Overlay?)

Has anyone played in any of the Double Guarantee Week tournaments at Full Tilt and noticed overlay despite the multi buy-in catch? Or are all these tournaments covering the double guarantee?

There probably won't be much if any overlay - so many people will register for them.

I think it sucks that FTP has chosen to add this new gimmicky promo during the Double Guarantee week. I believe this makes it more difficult for the recreational MTT player (ie. alot of MTT regs. will be entering 4x & am guessing many recreational players won't be, especially newer ones). This will make for a higher proportion of regs. to recs. which I think will also hurt it for the regs. as well.
I'm not opposed to FTP bringing in this new type of tournament (although not really a big fan either.... so does this mean an m/a'r might have 16-30entries into a tournament? lol), but to make all of the double guar. tourney 'multi-entry' kinda sucks.

My feelings about FTP are well known I am sure but for anyone that still loves playing there do you kinda get the feeling that they no longer care about the hard core poker player and have instead switched to making everything feel all very play-land and casino like? Where as pokerstars introduces home games which I feel is geared towards the hard core poker player.

I mean Matrix, Multi-Entry, even Rush is all about them not the player.

Bizarre. I played one and the HUD worked fine. With regards to what's been discussed, I doubt there will be any overlay in any of the tournaments in all honesty. They usually make the guarantee normally, considering more will play you only have to have an average buy in of about 2 per person to make it. Even though will buy in once, some are gonna do it 4-6 times so I can't see any overlay.

With regards to Kmixers points, I can See what you mean about these new game types being for them since they generate more rake but both rush and multi entry have proved massively popular from what I can see and I think FTP is just offering more options. Every poker site is a business and I think that Stars and Tilt both do a great job of attracting the recreational player as much as the regs or grinders.

Very bizarre - mine never worked on either table the entire game - I was playing another FT tournament and it worked fine there.

Do you use PT3 or HEM?
