The best online tournament series just keeps getting better.

In August of 2006, FTOPS I debuted with eight events and a combined guaranteed prize pool of more than $1 million. This past February, FTOPS VII awarded more than $15 million in prize money over 20 events. FTOPS VIII promises to be the biggest FTOPS ever.
