Win a seat in the WSOPE
For poker players, the annual World Series of Poker event is a great event. Each year seasoned professionals take their places at the table for some fast paced poker playing action.
This year, Bodog.com is giving the average, run-of-the-mill poker player the opportunity to pull up a chair next to these seasoned World Series of Poker Tournament veterans for energetic poker playing action. The powerhouse poker website is gearing up to start its qualifier event for the main World Series of Poker European event in London.
Qualifying for a chance to play with the top dogs will cost as little as a $1 buy-in fee for specified online tournaments. These tournaments will be held daily on the website. Winners from each daily tournament will be entered into a qualifier round of play. This ultimate event will send two lucky players to the World Series of Poker London event that starts September 27th.
On September 7th the championship match poker game will be played online. All qualifying players will vie for one of two seats to the main event. Two winners will each receive roundtrip airfare, luxury car service to and from the airport, top notch hotel accommodation, cash and Team Bodog apparel. All of this is in addition to the awarded seat at the World Series of Poker London event tournament. Prize packages are each valued at $24,000.
Mohawk Gaming Group CEO, Alwyn Morris, is thrilled about the opportunity to give two poker players the chance to live the life of luxury that starts the moment one of the two seats is won. Last year’s event featured Matt McCullough from Team Bodog sitting at the final table of the poker series tournament event.
With any luck, the website is hoping that history repeats itself this year. McCullough from New Jersey left the table in third place out of an initial 623 players. On the way home from London his pockets contained a remarkable $766,674 cash prize.
This year’s event will take center stage in London starting September 27th and running through October 2nd. For the first time in tournament history, the event will be broadcast live by leading sports network ESPN in the United States.
In addition to this event, Bodog.com offers players the chance to enter other tournaments. Each specialty tournament contains smaller qualifying tournaments on the website with buy-in fees as low as $1 every week.
