New Poker Challenges on the Horizon

In the great world of online poker rooms, one online gaming casino is taking poker to a whole new level. This online gaming casino recently opened with a unique format which puts a new definition on the word, competitive.

At the new online gaming casino the first Saturday of every month a new team will compete and qualify in a free roll tournament. Next week the fun continues as the new online gaming casino holds a $5 buy in tournament. The top five members of the teams which qualified for the tournament, and the top ten players from the buy in tournament will then compete for a final tournament prize on the third Saturday of the month. The winner of the final event at the new online gaming casino will take their participating forum and play in a private free roll tournament from a different online gaming casino poker room site. The events begin this July.

The first online gaming casino to host the event is part of the large, iPoker network. While the online gaming casino site has always used large promotions to bring in new players, this new event promises to increase the flow of traffic. Online poker tournaments always bring in a high number of new players during the tournaments peak hours.

New players at the online gaming casino poker room will receive great deposit bonuses, and a $200 maximum bonus for new players who start off with a nicely sized bankroll. The online gaming casino also offers a 50% reload bonus for returning players.

If you aren’t in the mood to make a sizable deposit, this site has all kinds of other online poker bonuses for you, including a $25,000 prize to any winner of 6 consecutive, 6player, $20 events. The site also offers a $15,000 prize to any winner of 5 consecutive, 10 player, $5 events.

Details on the team events are as follows, each month a new forum team of 25 members will enter into a private team qualifier. Teams with 25-49 players will get a $25 free roll, teams with 50-99 players receive a $50 free roll, and teams with 100 or more players will receive a $100 free roll.

So if your Saturday’s were starting to get slow, why not speed them up with a great new competitive poker playing tournament series.

World Series of Poker met on the Rio

When the World Series of Poker met on the Rio All Suites Hotel and Casino, the organizers for the 2005 event assumed that the huge groups of fans would cause some tournament problems. Harrah’s Entertainment, who was in charge of tournament issues, did a wonderful job in maintaining order. While people who love to play casino games are known for their love of a good time, this year Harrah’s will do its best to keep everything under control.

In 2004 Harrah’s Entertainment purchased the original home of the World Series of Poker, Binions. Even though the purchase of the outdated building helped the 2004 WSOP come to life, the venue had seen the tournament for the last time. With the growing numbers of people who play casino games, especially poker fans, the WSOP has made a jump to becoming the largest tournament of its kind.

With a larger tournament, came a larger building, the Amazon Ballroom at the Rio All Suites Hotel and Casino. The room itself is large enough to fit over 200 poker tables, which sounds great, but came with a lot of problems that will need to be solved for this year.

Problem number one- no bathroom! Okay there were bathrooms, but the Amazon itself held around 3,000 players, plus vendors, employees and fans. Each break became a huge bathroom rush, with players racing against the clock to make it back to each game. Especially problematic was the lack of ladies rooms. During the Ladies No Limit tournament the over 600 competitors found more than a few problems with the lack of facilities!

While getting to the bathroom is always a relieving experience, once that’s taken care of is the next major problem, a lack of nearby restaurants or food vendors. Although the casino hotel is full of fancy restaurants, finding food within walking distance didn’t work out so well.

The Amazon room was no picnic either. Players had to wait in long lines at the one cage for the event, and the lack of tournament clocks available kept some critical information out of players hands. Either way the 2006 World Series of Poker has a few major changes that need to take place.

Now, Jeffery Pollack, the new Commissioner of the World Series of Poker, is well aware of last years problems. With Pollack at the lead, this years tournament is looking better already!
