On Wednesday, Nov. 10, the 18th installment of the Full Tilt Online Poker Series will kick off.

Event #1 of #34 will get the cards in the air at 9 p.m. ET.  The $200 + $16 No Limit Hold’em tourney comes with a $800,000 guarantee and is hosted by Full Tilt red pro John Racener, who is playing heads-up for a little thing called the WSOP Main Event title two days prior.  By the time the $3 Million guaranteed Main Event rolls around on Sunday, Nov. 21 at 6 p.m. ET, Full Tilt will have went through $19 Million in guaranteed prize money.

FTOPS XVIII will offer all types of tournaments, including not only the usual Knockout, Shootout, Turbo and Super Turbo events, but also seven Rush Poker tourneys and four chances to try out Full Tilt’s new draw games.  Tourneys for Five Card Draw, 2-7 Single and Triple Draw, and one 10-Game event now occupy the TBA spots in the original FTOPS schedule, released just a few weeks ago.

Satellites for all 34 events are running now on Full Tilt.  You can also make your way through the Step Tournaments to earn an FTOPS XVIII seat.  Step 5 Tickets gets you into a $200 + $16 event, while Step 6 Tickets are worth a $600 + $40 seat in the $3 Million guaranteed Main Event.  If you want to test your stamina in the $2 Million guaranteed Two-Day Event on Saturday, Nov. 20, a Step 7 Ticket will cover the $2,000 + $100 buy-in.

If you’ve always wanted your own custom avatar, Full Tilt will grant that wish to the player who finishes on top of the FTOPS Leaderboard, along with a sweet package including entry to every FTOPS XIX Event (sans the the Two-Day Event) and is worth approximately $10,000.  As per usual, get an FTOPS jacket for making the final table.   Spice up your avatar with a gold FTOPS jersey if you take down any of the 34 events.
