Poker Player Wins Big at Bodog
March

Poker players are always looking for a great tournament, whether at a live
casino or at an online poker site. When they find one they will flock to it
in droves, so it behooves those sites to let the poker players know what
they are offering to bring in business. They will go where the money is, and
they will go where they think they stand the best chance of taking home a
top prize. Those poker sites that announce big wins often are more likely to
get those players to come to them if they continually announce big wins.
BodogLife.com is one of those poker sites that understand the value of
announcing their winners. They are consistently in the news with the
announcement that they have yet awarded another winner at their site. Their
latest poker tournament was just as popular as ever, and of course, someone
came away a big winner.
Bodog announced that their Sunday event ended up bringing in 603 poker
players vying for the top prize. It was “The Master JJ” who ended up taking
it. He or she walked away with the top prize of $23,600 out of a $100,000
Guaranteed Tournament. This was one of the biggest prize pools available
today in the online poker industry. There was a buy in of $109 which their
players obviously had no problem paying.
The winner admitted that he had cashed in the past, but that this was his
first “final table” and therefore they were considering it his inaugural
victory. They say that they are more than pleased with the win for their
player, and said that this is not unusual for them to see. They said that
they give away more than $5 million each month in poker tournaments and cash
prizes, and that they foresee that amount getting larger once the Unlawful
Internet Gambling Enforcement Act is overturned.
