By RP, February 8, 2006

The coming weekend will see some exciting finals action in a major online poker tournament at Eurobet Poker.com, when a guaranteed prize pool of at least $500 000 will be the reward for the skilled and the fortunate.

Schduled for Saturday 11th February, and branded “Grand Tournament VI”, this event will begin at 15.00 ET.

Online ‘qualifier’ sessions have already commenced and can be found in the Eurobet Poker lobby. Winners of the stage two qualifiers will automatically be entered to the final, but less lucky players can also buy in directly for $1000.

Eurobet Poker joined the vast Ongame network in November 2005 and its been a happy partnership with the number of scheduled tournaments currently up to over 800 weekly, offering over $610 000 in guaranteed prize money.

Mark O’Donnell, Marketing Manager at Eurobet Poker said: “Our tournament schedule is packed and is offering excellent choice and value for players of all levels. The size of the Ongame community means that we can offer huge guarantees, and with qualifying satellites, almost anyone has a chance of making it into the money.”
