April 25 - Just as you thought every angle has been tried to promote online
poker, Party Poker comes up with something new. They have teamed up with dating
portal, Lavalife, in a bid to use online poker as a way to bring singles
together. Never a boring day in this business!
Female interest in poker is growing by the day, and there are loads of single
guys sitting at home, playing poker, when they should really be out there in the
big wide world. So, if you can't get the poker dude to the date, bring the date
to the dude. Enter the Lavalife Party Poker Challenge. There is no doubt
that this is THE first poker dating tournament.
The tournament will take place over a period of 12 weeks land is aimed at the
singles market. The tournament will
run every Thursday night and will be a no-limit
Hold 'em format. (I can already hear the phrase "all-in" being used way out of
context). The top 20 players each week will win through to a set in the final round. The final round
will take place on June 9th.
There will be 220 players in the final round, and there are tons of prizes up
for grabs in amongst all the flirting that will no doubt be going on. The
includes a vacation for two to the Club
Med Turkoise in the Turks & Caicos Islands, a 50-inch
plasma screen TV, X-box 360, Ipods and loads of other prizes.
