Newbie's bag prize money in freeroll tournaments
26th January, 2008
A fifth pot of money worth $100,000 is up for grabs at the PlayersOnly.com Million Dollar Free Roll poker tournament this weekend.
PlayersOnly has already handed out $400,000 and this Sunday will see the week's top ten poker players compete for the cash.
The exciting thing about this tournament is that new players can find themselves up against seasoned online poker players, according to manager David Anderson.
"They can find themselves at a monthly final face-to-face with really experienced players," he added.
"They're holding their own pretty well I'd say - a lot of the prize money is going to players that have hardly played in tournaments before."
First place will take home $75,000 (£33,000), second place $10,000 and 21st to 30th places get $100 with different prize denominations in between.
PlayersOnly.com is part of the Sportsbook.com group, which has twice been named as best US sports book by eGaming Review.
