Tomorrow starts Full Tilt Poker’s Sit & Go Madness promotion which only runs from August 1st - 3rd. Full Tilt is boasting 75K in cash and prizes. There are four different groups of buy in levels on which the leaderboards are based. The promotion will run for 48 straight hours with 24 two hour blocks. At the end of the two hour blocks the top 7 leaderboard, for each group will win a cash prize amount. The thing I like most about this promotion is that the overall leaderboard is based upon your best finish in a two hour block. So if you score 100 points from 18:00-20:00 and then score 150 from 20:00-22:00 then they take your best score. This sort of helps make up for the people who are unable to play a high volume of sit & go’s over the entire promotion period to have a shot at the 5k freeroll to take place Saturday, August 9th at 16:30 ET. My favorite part of the promotion is the raffle where they will be giving away more prizes.
The Madness Raffle
Because giving away cash just isn’t crazy enough, we’re going even madder. For every qualifying green Sit & Go that you win during Sit & Go Madness, you’ll earn one raffle ticket good for entry into a drawing for some cool gear from the Full Tilt Store and entries to our great Sunday events. See the chart below for a full list of prizes:

I have been focusing on PLH for the past week and the 90 and 180 man Sit & Gos in preperation for an upcoming tournament. I’ll probably play 4 tables an hour for at least two blocks in order to take a shot at the raffle and the overall leader board, but I don’t think it’s worth it to play the high volume needed for the top 7 block prizes (for me anyway). What makes this kind of cool is that you can play high volume to go with the Sit & Go Madness or you can play a couple and still have a shot at some cool prizes.
