Take part in Sit & Go Madness to win a share of more than $125,000 in cash and prizes – including entry to the $50K Madness Freeroll – just by playing single-table Sit & Gos at Full Tilt Poker. The action kicks off at 16:00 ET on Friday, December 4th and runs through 16:00 ET on Sunday, December 6th. Play Sit & Gos to win a cut of the Leaderboard prize money, tickets to the Madness Raffle and entry to the Madness Freeroll, and play for your share of a $50,000 prize pool. The Method to FT’s Madness To participate in Sit & Go Madness, look for Sit & Gos highlighted in green. Buy-ins for these tournaments are broken into four separate groups, as shown below:
The 48 hours of Sit & Go Madness will be divided into 24, two-hour blocks (e.g., 16:00 ET to 18:00 ET, 18:00 ET to 20:00 ET, and so forth) throughout the weekend with a Leaderboard for each of the four groups during every time period. The top seven players in each group will be paid at the end of every two-hour block: Sit & Go Madness
Overall Leaderboards There is also an Overall Leaderboard for each group over the entire 48-hour period. The Overall Leaderboard is determined by the best performance in one of the two-hour time periods. There is no cumulative calculation with the Overall Leaderboards. So, if a player in Group A earns 100 points for the 22:00 ET to 00:00 ET period on Friday and then 150 points for the 00:00 ET to 02:00 ET period on Saturday, it's only the 150 points that will be reflected on the Overall Leaderboard. The top two players in each group's Overall Leaderboard will meet in a $5K Sit & Go Freeroll where the top three places will be paid. The Freeroll will take place the following weekend - Saturday, December 12th at 15:05 ET.
The Madness Freeroll Even if your players don't make it onto one of the Sit & Go Madness Leaderboards or win a prize in The Madness Raffle, they still have a chance to walk away a big winner with the $50K Madness Freeroll. Taking place on Saturday, December 12th at 16:50 ET, players earn their entry by winning at least two Sit & Gos during the 48 hours of Sit & Go Madness. Once they’ve won two Sit & Gos, they’ll automatically be registered for the $50K Madness Freeroll, which can be found in the Tournaments lobby of Full Tilt Poker. First place is estimated to be around $5,000. The Madness Raffle Because giving away cash just isn't crazy enough, FT are going even madder. For every qualifying green Sit & Go that gets cashed in during Sit & Go Madness (finish in the top three in a nine-player Sit & Go or the top two in a six-player Sit & Go), players will earn one raffle ticket good for entry into a drawing for some cool gear from the Full Tilt Store, Tournament Dollars and Satellite Tokens. There will be more than 1,000 prizes given away in the raffle. See the chart below for a full list of prizes:
