Free $20 turns into a WSOP Seat @ Poker.com

Monday, May 01, 2006

If somebody gave you $20 for free, could you go and turn it into a WSOP package valued at $12,500?

Well, with the help of Poker.com, Clorebomb did just that!

Poker.com’s latest WSOP Grand Final winner, Clorebomb, not only managed to win Sunday’s tournament and secure his Vegas package, but was able to achieve all of this thanks to $20 that Poker.com gave him.

Don’t get me wrong, the tournament victory was due to Clorebomb’s consistent and skilled poker play. However, if it had not been for the cash gift from Poker.com then this once in a lifetime opportunity may never have happened.

Clorebomb’s Path to the WSOP:
- Poker.com gives gift of $20 to get started
- Clorebomb hits the low stake cash games and starts building his bankroll
- Takes his winnings and enters 8 seated WSOP Semi Final SnG
- Places second in Semi Final and receives entry into Grand Final
- Wins April’s Grand Final

Now Clorebomb is off to Vegas to compete for the World Series…. It’s that simple at Poker.com.

Sunday $10,000 Guaranteed
Every week I say it, and every week the opportunity goes begging. In case you did not know, every Sunday Poker.com holds a $10,000 Guaranteed Tournament and if there was just one tournament I could play (if I was allowed), THIS WOULD BE IT!

My Reasons to Play:
• Less than 100 entries, but is guaranteed for 200. That’s less than half what the field is guaranteed for, so it's a 100% +ev investment on your money.
• Unbelievable return on your $50+$5 buy-in
• You can earn entry via our $5 satellites

Congratulations to Twopairacesnaces on a terrific win and from all the staff at Poker.com we wish you continued success with your newly acquired bankroll… $3,000 to be exact.
