Having concluded upon this very morning, the FTOPS would quite smugly plead guilty to stealing the majority of the online poker community in the past few weeks.
Despite a colossal $16 million guarantee by Full Tilt, the FTOPS still managed to smash it, showing no signs of an overlay in any event, with some events even going way beyond their guarantee.With that said, many of us are looking for a new home to temporarily settle in before the WCOOP kicks off next month. So, as promised, here are some tournaments that we’d recommend for the coming week.Bluff's Pick of the Week #1 When? 7pm BST DailyWhere? Poker StarsWhat? $60,000 Guaranteed Description: $11 rebuy. Now I know we said we need to find a new home before the start of the WCOOP but there is nothing wrong with pitching up your tent early. This tournament is great and once you get through the madness of rebuy period, you can find yourself sitting nice and deep and in a good position to compete for some serious cash!Bluff's Pick of the Week #2When? 7pm BST DailyWhere? Everest PokerWhat? $15K Guaranteed rebuyDescription: This is a standard $11 rebuy. Or is it? No. This has to be one of the fishiest tournaments ever. People are in no way shy of a rebuy too. The players, despite being mostly French, Italian and from other from fishy nations, are mostly loose passive players. Get involved!
