Get In The Game

Wednesday, June 07, 2006  -  reddit

PokerStars is holding a blogger-only free roll tournament on June 18th, at 4PM EST. First place wins a World Series Of Poker Main Event package. WSOP Main Events cost $10k, folks, so that's pretty damn sweet. It gets better though, as 2nd through 9th will get you a regular WSOP entry worth $1500 (you have to wear PokerStars gear.) 10th has the meanest prize in my opinion, as you have to play Wil Wheaton in a heads-up tournament for $1,000. Lose, and you still get a comp to a 150 player WSOP event. Wil can play, make no mistake about it, so I personally believe it's more of a punishment than a prize.

The rest of the prizes are:

(11th-20th place) $370 seat in the PokerStars WSOP 150-Seat Guaranteed tournament
(21st-40th) 4GB iPod Nano
(41st-50th) $215 Seat in Sunday Million
(51st-54th) PokerStars Letterman's Jacket (I want one of these)

As of two days ago, there were already about 1200 people signed up, so it's not going to be a cake walk. But hey, it's free! Got balls? Sign-up right now. You don't have to have a poker blog, any old one will do as long as it's been live for more than a couple of months, and is regularly updated. You can find me on PokerStars as pwtenny, though I haven't played hardly at all lately. Registration ends on the 15th, so stop screwing around and get in the game. SEGA!
