888.com invites poker fans to live the dream
24th December, 2007
Pacific Poker, an online poker site owned by the 888.com operator, has decided to give an opportunity to anyone to partake in the biggest poker world tournaments.
Together with the ticket to the most prestigious poker events in the world, the winners will also share of $75 million. This is available to anyone, because the initial deposit is just $1.
The WSOP (World Series of Poker) in Las Vegas, the Aussie Millions in Melbourne, the EPT (European Poker Tour) in Monte Carlo and the 888.com UK open in London are on the list of tournaments that will be available to the winners.
It all starts with a $1 Live the Dream satellite tournament, which is happening every hour of every day up until December 28. One of every ten players will become a winner and get a seat in the Live the Dream Final.
The final is set to happen December 29, at 20:30 GMT, which will determine one lucky poker player, who will be granted a seat in every one of those four worldwide tournaments.
The Dream Ticket is what everyone is competing for. The Live the Dream satellite tournaments have started already and been going since December 20. Many players have become closer to getting the Dream Ticket now.
Even those who don’t come first still have something to gain from the prize pot, as there are many exclusive prizes for top ten finishers, such as two tickets, flights and accommodation to a Seville FC Champions League game.
888.com’s Marketing Director, Matt Robinson, expressed his excitement about the event.
"Live the Dream is all about making dreams come true for our players," he said. "There's nothing we would like more than to give our players the chance to play for such incredible cash prizes in the world's biggest poker tournaments, and win."
