Press Release Source: Bodog Poker Network On Monday April 12, 2010

LONDON, April 12, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- In a new first for an EPT event Patrik Selin, the only CEO of a major poker company to play regularly in the world's biggest poker tournaments, will be offering a personal EUR1,000 cash to whoever knocks him out of the EPT Grand Final in Monaco (April 25th-30th).

London-based Swede, Selin, has an impressive poker CV both on a business level and as a player, including the EUR 500,000,000 sale of the OnGame poker network to BWin in 2006 whilst OnGame's CEO. At the felts he won the Ritz Club Live Tournament in 2006 and was 2nd to Peter Gould in the 2007 UK Open Main Event.

Bodog Poker Network's CEO Patrik Selin commented: "I think it's a shame more senior management of poker rooms do not play at these events as it is the best way to find out what players want. Everybody at a live event is passionate about the game and happy to talk about their likes and dislikes which is invaluable to anybody running a poker room.

"Now I have raised the stakes and will be putting EUR1,000 straight into to the hand of the person who knocks me out which should make the banter even more fun in Monaco."

Everyone cashes at the WSOP with Everest Poker

Everyone cashes at the WSOP with Everest Poker
$1 Million is up for grabs.

Everest Poker, official sponsor of the World Series of Poker 2010, once again makes the biggest poker show on Earth even sweeter for its qualifiers with the “$1 Million Match” promotion. When you qualify for the WSOP with Everest Poker, you don’t need to make it into the money to fly home as a winner! Everest Poker will match the combined winnings of all its qualified players at the WSOP up to a one million dollars. This money will then be shared equally among all Everest qualifiers, no matter how they finished. Quite simply, all Everest Poker qualifiers are automatically eligible for their share of $1 Million.

Last year, Antoine Saout, a 25-year old French player from Brittany, France, qualified online with Everest Poker for the WSOP Main Event. He played the tournament of his life, making the November Nine and finishing 3rd, cashing approximately $3.5 Million.

It was not just great for Antoine, but also for the 51 other players who also qualified online at Everest. The full $1 Million Match was met and everyone shared a piece of it — $19,607 per player!
