Sportingbet group member ParadisePoker.com launched the first Paradise Masters Online Championships midweek in a six day celebration featuring a series of tournaments and events in which players compete for cash and prizes.
The highlight of the series will be a No Limit Texas Hold’Em tournament with a prize pool valued at well over $1 million on Sunday March 6. Players will fight it out exclusively online until 10 players remain. Those final 10 will be flown to a mystery luxurious location to play the remainder of the tournament face-to-face.
The buy-in for the Paradise Masters is $600. To allow everyone a chance to participate in the main event, ParadisePoker.com is offering daily qualifying tournaments where players can compete for their entry from as low as $2.
“With the continued growth in the poker industry, we want to give everyone a shot to learn and play the game,” said Bruce Stubbs, Marketing Director for ParadisePoker.com. “In addition to offering low price tables, we’re offering exclusive daily free-to-enter tournaments available in the countdown to this exciting event.”
ParadisePoker.com is one of the booming poker industry’s major poker rooms. Established in 1999, it was taken over last year in a record-breaking business deal by Sportingbet PLC, a publicly traded company on the London Stock Exchange, to form the world’s largest online betting company.
