Coming up today at 3PM ET is the Full Tilt Poker "Record Breaker Tournament". This tournament is being held to celebrate Full Tilt's fifth anniversary and is an attempt to beat the Guinness Book record for the largest online poker tournament ever. There is a maximum of 50,000 players that can enter this tournament and that maximum has already been met.

Tournament Details
The buy-in is $5 and Full Tilt has added $250,000 to the prize pool which means there is a total prize pool of $500,000! First place in this tournament will take down an impressive $45,000 and almost 10,000 positions get paid! There is a host Full Tilt Pros in the tournament and it should make for an interesting day.

 UPDATE: Full Tilt Poker will break the record, but it will then be rebroken by Poker Stars later today. Poker Stars is holding a record breaker tournament today as well with a $1 buy-in. They already have 52,000+ players signed up and Full Tilt has limited themselves to 50,000 players.
