Full Tilt Poker has been on overdrive over the holidays as far as giving out bonuses is concerned The second largest online poker site in history seems to be doing everything it can and then some to gain market share on the only site above it in the rankings and that translates to some amazingly sweet rewards for everyone involved.

It started with the Holiday Hundred deposit bonus that Full Tilt Poker gave out not too long ago and then continued with their supercharged happy hour promotion that started last week and will continue through to the end of the calendar year Now, just to prove that the fun doesn’t stop after the ball drops on the year 2010, Full Tilt Poker has introduced their Big Little Tournament promotion as a way to celebrate the turning over of a new calendar leaf.

The little part of the tournament is a reference to the amazingly small sum of $5.50 that you need to pay in order to get into one of the tournaments With smaller satellite tournaments available, you can even parlay your way into one of the four tournaments with as little as $0.50 cents Space more than cash will limit you in this promotion because there are only 50,000 players allowed in each of the four tournaments.

The big part of the promotion is a reference to the amazing prizes that you can get out of it Specifically, Full Tilt Poker will put up a guaranteed prize pool of $250,000 for each of the four tournaments Multiplied together, that effectively brings the total cost of this promotion to Full Tilt Poker up to $1 million That is a lot of money to guarantee, but Full Tilt Poker is definitely one of the few sites that have the money to be able to back those guarantees up.

If there is anything that can be taken from this, it is that you should not stop celebrating once the New Year starts With tournaments on January 3rd, 10th, 17th and 24th, Full Tilt Poker has given you at least four more reasons to keep at it after December 2009 becomes January 2010.
