Because Pot-Limit Omaha is a game where the nuts can – and often do – change on every street, many players can’t go too wrong by playing a super tight strategy at a full table. This means being highly selective before the flop and limiting your range to something like the top 15% of starting hands, and then only continuing after the flop if you have a very strong draw or a made hand.

Full Tilt Poker will attempt to stamp its name on the Guinness Records and to do so; the site has announced that it will try to set a new record for the Largest Online Poker Tournament. Full Tilt’s Record Breaker tournament was unveiled as the finale to FIVE, a week of events and promotions created exclusively to celebrate the site’s 5^th anniversary. The tournament will take place on July 19th at 15:05ET, players can buy in for this event for only $5 or 1000 Full Tilt Points and compete for a share of a $250,000 guaranteed with $250,000 added prize pool. Players can also get entries to this event by playing the online satellites available on the site and starting for as little as 30 cents or 50 Full Tilt Points.

Team Full Tilt pros and WSOP bracelet winners Howard Lederer, Chris Ferguson and Phil Ivey have already confirmed they will take part in the event, offering players the chance to sit down at this historic tournament and play with some of the best high stakes and tournament pros in the world.

“By extending the limits of what is possible in online poker tournaments, Full Tilt Poker will allow players to compete for a big payout without the big buy-in,” said Team Full Tilt member Howard Lederer.

Putting together a poker tournament of this magnitude would be nearly impossible for any brick and mortar casino or poker room. The current record for the largest “live” poker tournament was set at the 2006 WSOP Main Event with 8,772 players. To break the current Guinness Record set by PokeStars.com in December, 2008, Full Tilt Poker will need to attract over 35.000 players. If successful, this tournament will establish Full Tilt Poker as World Record holder and cement its reputation as a world leader in online poker industry.

Full Tilt Poker has just launched an innovative informative site involving all the excitement of the “Durrrr Challenge”, an incredible online heads up tourney highlighting some of the finest big money online poker players competing against the online poker star Tom “durrrr” Dwan.

The new site presents internet poker players and followers the chance to follow this incredible Full Tilt Poker Challenge and check out timely statistical updates. With this brand new “durrrr Challenge” site players can track all the action and check out each hand played during the poker challenge, and check out lots of statistics, including how many hands were played, time of session, amount won, average won during each hand and tons more.

Close to six months ago, the 23 year old online poker player dealt out a heads-up challenge for any poker player with the loot, time and ability to accept it. Any poker star entering the poker challenge has to wager $500,000 against Dwan’s $1.5 million. Tom’s challenge specifies that at least 50,000 hands need to be played simultaneously at four or more poker tables of no-limit Hold’em or pot-limit Omaha. At the end of the poker challenge, the player who has more money will earn the pool. Basically if you enter the Full Tilt Challenge and win a dollar after the 50,000 hands, then you will win durrrr’s $1.5 Million, but if he triumphs by $1 then he will take your $500,000.

Up to now, several poker players have consented to play the “durrrr challenge”, including Full Tilt Poker Star Phil Ivey and David Benyamine, however, only Patrick Antonius has accepted the durrrr challenge. Thus far, both poker pros have participated in a total of 20,647 hands out of 50,000, with Tom leading the count $726,546 total.
