The Titan Poker Summer Jackpots have begun with a boom. With over $125,000 on offer this summer, players are already lining up to jump into the action. Congratulations to speedyeddy and BloodRush who have already won the weekly $500 Summer Jackpots race twice each. If you are one of the Top 10 points earners from Monday to Thursday then you could be walking off with $500 too.
With $1,500 given away after the first week of the Weekly race and $2,000 in the second week, we have put $6,500 into the Super Side Pot. This is for players who come in the Top 10 points earners 7 times in the 3 weeks of play in July and those in the Top 25 points earners, 10 times in the 4 weeks of play in August. This is Titan Poker’s way of rewarding you for playing well even if you missed landing in the top players on consecutive days.
The race for the $20,000 monthly prize is raging at a furious pace. Currently speedyeddy is holding the top spot, closely followed by BloodRush and Heidjer with MATEO6Y8 and shooobo jostling in 4th and 5th waiting to take advantage of any let up in the pace at the top of the table. All top 50 players are going to win a piece of the cash pie and currently both ollietwist and ShaunSweeney81 are sitting just inside the bubble. This is a precarious position to be in for anyone looking to make it into the money and the race is still wide open for those looking to take a slice of the prize pool.

Just like that, the 41st Annual World Series of Poker is left with 747 very happy people at the end of Day 4. Most of the remaining players are sure to be pleased to have made it this far. Among those still in the money are Pro Titan Team member Joel Benzinou who is still alive with 50K.
With a total prize pool in excess of $100 million for the sixth consecutive year, it’s no wonder big things are happening at the World Series of Poker:
Among those no longer in contention are Ciorteanu Virgil Marius, “cidul”, the 3rd place finisher in the 2010 World Challenge Romania, who busted out in 614th place. Ciorteanu was able to stay around long enough to walk away with $21,327.
Some of Titan Poker’s other package winners still in the game include Jack Ellwood of the United Kingdom, and French players Damien Luis and Michael Maitre.

Team Titan rakes in $850,000 in combined cash winnings since the start of the 41st Annual World Series of Poker in Las Vegas
Having finished “in the money” at 15 events, with a total of nearly $850,000 in winnings, Team Titan is going strong at the 2010 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.
Here’s a quick review of their performances so far:
Team member Sam Trickett of the United Kingdom is on fire with $693,837 in prize money and a very impressive second place finish at the No-Limit Hold’em with $5,000 buy-in (Event #17). No-Limit Hold’em seems to be his forte, with no less than six “in the money” finishes – all of them in No-Limit games. Play it again Sam!
Demonstrating his diverse range of poker skills, team captain Sorrel Mizzi of Canada placed sixth at the Seven Card Stud with $1,500 buy-in (Event #21) and 25th at the Six-Handed No-Limit Hold’em with $2,500 buy-in (Event # 26).
