Out of all of the monthly promotions that Full Tilt Poker has available, the Big Little Tournament could quite possibly be the most popular amongst the mass population at the online poker site. Other promotions bring in more money, but a lot of that comes from high rollers.

The Big Little Tournament is definitely not aimed at high rollers because it is an opportunity for people that don’t have a lot of money to still end up with a huge cash prize. The tournament carries a guaranteed prize pool of $100,000 and of that there is a guaranteed first prize of at least $9000. That is a lot of money on both counts and the amount is even more impressive when you consider it is money that can be had with a buy-in of only $2 + $0.20.

Although the entry to the tournament is so small, that does not stop Full Tilt Poker from putting on many different turbo satellite tournaments that can give people a chance to get into the tournament for even less than the small buy-in. Right now, satellite tournaments are running at Full Tilt Poker that allow potential entry into the final tournament on the final Sunday of January for as little as $0.35. Still other tournaments allow entry with a miniscule amount of Full Tilt Points, giving people the chance to get a shot at a seat in the tournament without having to put up any of their own money in the process.

Although the last Sunday of January is still a relatively long way away, the Big Little Tournament from Full Tilt Poker will give people the chance to win big and that is why there are many people that like to plan ahead for this one specific tournament. That is why there are so many early satellite tournaments running and that is also why the earlier statement regarding its popularity appears to be true. This is one big event every month in terms of the number of people paying attention and it appears as though January is not going to be an exception to that rule this time around.
