The World Series of Poker is already the richest sport and gaming competition in existence, but online poker site Full Tilt Poker has launched a promotion, which promises to make the WSOP jackpot even bigger. Full Tilt's "Main Event Mania" will grant $10 million to the winner of the WSOP, provided that he or she qualified for the tournament through Full Tilt Poker.

The WSOP main event boasts a prize pool of approximately $60 million, with about $10 million expected to go to the champion. If this Year's winner is a Full Tilt qualifier, that amount could double to a total of $20 million.

In total, Full Tilt Poker has promised to send at least 30 online qualifiers to the WSOP main event. The site currently offers three opportunities to win the $10,000 WSOP buy-in.
