    Full Tilt Poker Update 1/12/11

    There are some changes / additions to Black Card players and the FTP Store, but the big news out of the most recent update is the new Multi-Entry Tournament.

    This is taken straight from the FTP website:

    Multi-Entry Tournaments allow you to register for the same tournament numerous times, meaning you can “multi-table” a single tournament!

    Each of your entries in a Multi-Entry Tournament will have its own chip stack and be dealt its own hand. You can register multiple entries at the same time, or use additional entries as a “second chance” if your first entry is eliminated from the tournament in the early stages of play.

    Your entries will always be seated at different tables, and if you have more entries than there are tables left in the tournament, two of your entries will be “merged” into one.
    ---
    Now before you get too excited, it looks like you pay rake on each entry. MSUDuster observation, unclear if this is the case. Anyone who plays tourneys, please confirm.
    --
    What happens if you get merged?

    Because two of your entries cannot be seated at the same table, if you have more entries than there are tables left in the tournament, two of your entries will merge together. When an entry merger takes place, whichever entry is being moved from a broken table will be merged with your entry that has the smallest stack.

    For example, say you have three entries and there are three tables left in a Multi-Entry Tournament. One table breaks, so your entry from that table will merge with your entry with the smallest stack and the chips for both of those entries will be combined into one stack.

    Your avatar will flash “MERGE” to let you know when an entry merger takes place:

    i saw the new update allows you the option to click "sit out on all tables" which is actually pretty handy when you mass table. you can also hit sit in on all tables

    I just don't think the multi-entry tournaments are going to be a big hit. I think they'll fade out over time like Rush Poker.
