PokerStars.com to
host Atlantis poker tourney
November 21
Online poker players are learning that next year will get off the a
quick start when it comes to big poker tourneys.
In fact, the
first major poker tournament of 2006 will be held in the very beginning
of 2006. It will take place at one of the world's most attractive
casinos with the biggest names in poker involved. PokerStars.com, the
world's largest tournament poker website, will host the third annual
PokerStars Caribbean Adventure (PCA) at the Atlantis Casino Resort from
Jan. 5-11.
The PCA will catch the attention of many of the biggest names in
poker. The last three world poker champions, Chris Moneymaker (2003),
Greg Raymer (2004), and Joe Hachem (2005) will compete. Furthermore, Tom
McEvoy, the 1983 World Series of Poker champion will attend. John Gale,
from England, who won last year's PCA event, is also expected to defend
his title.
The six-day poker spectacular offers multiple daily tournaments, cash
games, satellites, single table tournaments, and the crown jewel of the
tournament -- the PCA championship. For the third consecutive year, the
PCA will be taped and broadcast as part of the enormously-popular World
Poker Tour, shown on the Travel Channel and other television networks
around the world.
The buy-in to the championship event is $8,000 ($7,800 plus a $200
entry fee). The prize pool is projected to be $5 million, making this
one of the world's most lucrative poker tournaments. Approximately 600
players -- amateurs and professionals alike, are expected to participate
in the main event alone, with hundreds more in attendance for the side
action and vacation fun.
PokerStars.com is giving away over $750,000 in free entries to
players at the site. All packages include the entire $8,000 entry fee,
one week for two at the renowned Atlantis Resort and Casino, including
meals, plus $1,000 in spending money. Super-satellites and shootouts to
the PCA are now being held daily at PokerStars.com. Other qualifying
satellites cost as little as $2. Yes, two bucks can turn into a seat on
a World Poker Tour event, and at least a million dollars in prize money.
Many others will qualify to play in free-rolls
The Atlantis Casino Resort is located on Paradise Island in the
Bahamas. The casino's poker room has 40 tables and will offer all of the
most popular forms of poker, including no-limit Texas Hold'em, the
world's fastest-growing poker game. Atlantis also offers a great resort
containing one of the world's largest aquariums and entertainment
complexes anywhere.
