As the largest online poker guide in the world, PokerListings.com can offer unrivaled deals at the world's best poker rooms. The first two freerolls of an exclusive deal with UltimateBet.com were a great success last weekend, paying out $20,000 in prizes including a huge entry, accommodation and travel package to a World Poker Tour event. And, even better: There are four more still to come.
Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (PRWeb) January 24, 2007 -- PokerListings.com (http://www.pokerlistings.com/ultimate-bet-promotion), the world's best online poker resource, and UltimateBet.com (http://www.ultimatebet.com/bonus/pokerlistings.html) are pleased to say the first two events in an extended freeroll series for cash and World Poker Tour packages were a great success over the weekend.PokerListings.com players who hit 250 raked hands at UltimateBet.com over the last month were treated to two freerolls as a token of our appreciation: A $5,000 cash freeroll on Saturday and a $15,000 WPT freeroll on Sunday, both being well-represented and filled with the savvy play expected from PokerListings.com players, new and old.
Almost 2,000 players qualified for both events, with the big prize - a $12,500 package for a World Poker Tour main event - making Monday morning all the brighter for one of our valued players.
Players who missed the action will be happy to hear February and March will bring more of the same. Two more exclusive $5,000 cash freerolls (Feb. 17 and Mar. 17) and two more $15,000 WPT freerolls, (Feb. 18 and Mar. 18) are scheduled, and any PokerListings.com player with 250 raked hands between Jan.14 and Feb. 14, or Feb. 14 and Mar. 14 are eligible to play.
