Iron Man Challenge Rules

Full Tilt Poker Iron Man Challenge Rules

Promotion Name: Full Tilt Poker Iron Man Challenge

Promotion Dates: Monthly

Each month, Full Tilt Poker will run the Iron Man Challenge, where online players will compete to reach one of four separate Iron Man Challenge levels:

  • Bronze
  • Silver
  • Gold
  • Iron

Players who reach these levels will earn Iron Man Challenge Medals, based on their performance. In their first qualifying month, Medals will be awarded as follows:

  • Bronze - 25
  • Silver - 40
  • Gold - 70
  • Iron - 100

If players continue to qualify for one of our four Iron Man Challenge levels over consecutive months, they will earn Medals at a faster rate. Players may also receive additional medals if they move from one level up to a higher one in consecutive months (e.g., Silver to Gold).

If a player fails to qualify for an Iron Man Challenge level in any month, their status will be reset to the starting levels when they re-qualify.

Players may redeem their Medals for prizes from our exclusive Iron Man Challenge Store at any time they choose. Items in the Iron Man Challenge Store are not available in the regular Full Tilt Poker Store, and may include but not be limited to the following; tournament entries, cash bonuses, and reserved seats/tables at Full Tilt Poker.

In addition to their Medals, players may earn extra bonuses by competing in the Iron Man Challenge. These bonuses include:

Option A: Entry Into One Of Four Iron Man Challenge Freeroll Tournaments.

Participants in these tournaments will compete for the chance to play against three of Full Tilt Poker's red pros in consecutive heads-up matches for a chance to win up to $100,000.

Players will qualify for Freerolls based on the number of Full Tilt Poker points they earn for a specified number of days in the month. Players do not have to earn their points over consecutive days.

Each Iron Man Challenge Freeroll tournament will be held on the second Saturday of the following month. The top finisher in each Freeroll (A, B, C, D) will each win the first-place prize money for their respective tournament, and face each other in a four-person Sit & Go tournament at 16:30 ET held the next day (the second Sunday of the month) where the winner will claim an additional $5,000 and earn the right to play three of Full Tilt Poker's red pros in consecutive heads-up matches at 16:30 ET on the following Saturday.

If the winner of the four-person Sit & Go tournament played in the A, B, or C level Freeroll tournaments, they will play three of Full Tilt Poker's red pros in consecutive matches for the chance to win an additional $50,000. Payouts for the heads-up matches are broken out as follows:

  • If the player wins one of their three heads-up matches, they will collect $5,000 in addition to any money they have already won.
  • If the player wins two of their three heads-up matches, they will collect $10,000 in addition to any money they have already won.
  • If the player wins all three of their heads-up matches, they will collect $50,000 in addition to any money they have already won.

If the winner of the four-person Sit & Go tournament played in the D level Freeroll tournament, they will play three of Full Tilt Poker's red pros in consecutive matches for the chance to win an additional $100,000. Payouts for the heads-up matches are broken out as follows:

  • If the player wins one of their three heads-up matches, they will collect $5,000 in addition to any money they have already won.
