March 20, 2009 - Full Tilt Poker Iron Man Challenge is a challenge of dedication and perseverance on the part of all Full Tilt Poker players. In order to succeed in the challenge you have to consistently play poker for a number of days consecutively throughout a month. If you can do this and achieve an iron man status you will be rewarded with exclusive freeroll tournaments and iron man medals which you can use in the Iron Man store. In this article we will go over the various levels you can achieve in the Iron Man Challenge, as well as the rewards that are associated with each of these levels.
There are four different Iron Man statuses that you can achieve by playing consistently at Full Tilt Poker. There are the bronze, silver, gold and iron statuses. To achieve the bronze status you must earn 50 Full Tilt Points for 20 consecutive days or 100 FTP’s for 15 consecutive days. To achieve silver status you must earn 50 FTP’s for 25 days in a row, 100 points for 20 days in a row or 200 points for 15 days in a row. To achieve gold status you must earn 100 points for 25 straight days or 200 points for 20 straight days. To fully complete the challenge and achieve the iron man status you must earn 200 FTP’s for 25 straight days. All of the days must be in the same calendar month to count towards the iron man status.
Iron Man Medals
Each month you achieve an iron man status you are rewarded with Iron Man medals. If you achieve bronze status you receive 25 medals, silver receives 40 medals, gold receives 70 medals and iron status receives 100 medals. Every additional month that you achieve an iron man status will reward you with an increase in the amount of iron man medals you are awarded. For example if you achieve iron status for over a year you start to receive 300 Iron Man medals for every month you achieve iron status. Your Iron Man medals can be used in the Iron Man Challenge Store.
Iron Man Freerolls
Every month there are exclusive freerolls for Full Tilt players who achieved an iron man status. The freerolls include a $10K bronze freeroll, a $15K silver freeroll, a $20K gold freeroll and a $30K iron man freeroll. You are eligible to play in your statuses freeroll as well as the ones below you. The winners of each of the 4 freerolls are entered into a 4-man $5000 winner take all sit and go. The winner of this 4-man tournament goes on to play 3 Full Tilt pro’s in heads up matches. Each pro the winner defeats earns him $5K and if the winner takes down all three pros he wins $50K.
If you don’t want to play in the iron man freerolls you can opt out of the freerolls and instead receive an additional amount of Iron Man medals.
Iron Man Plus
If 200 points a day is nothing to you then Iron Man Plus will definitely be of interest. If you go over 500 points in a day and still achieve an iron man status for the month you will receive extra Iron Man medals. For example if you go crazy one day and earn 2000 FTP’s you will have earned an additional 20 Iron Man medals.
If you consistently play poker everyday then the Iron Man Challenge is definitely something you should look into. There is a ton of added value for all players who can achieve one of the four Iron Man levels.
