The PokerStars site is by far one of the biggest and most popular sites for Poker around the world. They are taking aim at beating the record for the most players that will participate in one of the largest online tournaments of all time, hoping to easily beat the previous record of 65,000 players they themselves set previously.
This tourney will be played on December 27th at 14:45 ET with a buy in of only $1 dollar and will reward the first place winner with an amazing prize of $50,000, and with a remaining prize pool of $300,000 with the top 30,000 players receiving an actual cash payout it will prove to be an exciting day for all those involved.
You may say this is not casino news but to be a part of something so large as this is an opportunity not to be passed up, and many of the people that play online nowadays are going to get into this event just to show the that this right should be accessible to anyone who wants to play. Hopefully the US legislators will see the overwhelming response to this game and see that many of their own constituents want the right to play. Perhaps this will be an eye opener for those in the Government that wonder just how big of an issue online gambling is.
