Full Tilt Poker is building their player base with the most attractive offers yet. They are doubling the guarantees for tournaments this week for $30 million.

Monday night the site hosted the promotion $1K Monday, and doubled the payout. Typically $300,000, players were able to enter for the same price and compete for the top prize of $600,000. This promotion drew 1,454 entries.

Full Tilt allow multiple entries, which means a player can bust out, then re-enter up to four times total. By the end of the registration time Monday night, there were enough entries to drive the prize up to $1.4 million.

The tournament attracted some of the top names in live and online poker play. Live pros Carlos Mortensen, Andy Bloch and Allen Cunningham sat alongside online greats Luke “FullFlush” Schwartz, Dan “jungleman12” Cates and Shaun Deeb. Deeb came out the winner early Tuesday morning with a prize of $312,610.

This will continue to build excitement through the end of the week as promotion draws in new players. Coming up is the $24 Double Stack No Limit Hold’em tournament with a prize of $39K. The $100 buy in No Limit Hold’em will take a $47K prize. To end the week, the Sunday Mulligan will start out at $400,000 for the final prize. With entries continuing to pour in, massive prize pools will surely follow suit.
