Full Tilt Poker Hosts Darwin Poker League Online Tournaments

Starting this Thurs Nov 04 Full Tilt has given us our own $10+$1 Deep Stack NLHE Tournament.

The buy-in has been kept small for this one to encourage maximum participation. If we get a good turn out each week, more tournaments with higher buy-ins will be added in the future, including HORSE and Omaha.

The tournament can be found under the Private Tournaments tab. Scroll down the list and look for Nov 04 - 7:00am ET (8:30pm ACST). SMS me for the password.

I expect this will take several weeks to get off the ground. Feel free to invite interstate friends to participate. This is our way of enjoying some poker from the comfort of our own homes with friends we find it hard to catch up with.

Once this tournament gets big enough, I'll be able to sweeten the pot with some cash added overlay.

If you don't have a Full Tilt account it's very easy to do. Click on one of the ad's and use the referal code "DARWINPOKER" when you create the account. Full Tilt will pay bonuses with each new account and I'll use that money to add to the online prize pools.
