Online Poker Room Awarding Tropical WPT Prize Package

The first destination on the World Poker Tour (WPT) will be the beautiful tropics of Turks and Caicos this fall at the extravagant Club Med resort. Members of PlayersOnly.com are gearing up to play their best in hopes of winning a $12,000 Turks and Caicos Poker Classic (TCPC) prize package.

Players Only has scheduled many tournaments in the coming weeks, including qualifiers and Super Satellites. Players can qualify their way into the Super Satellites for as little as $2, with the Super Satellite tournaments awarding direct entry into the WPT-TCPC main event.

David Anderson, manager of PlayersOnly.com, had this to say, "There's a million dollars guaranteed to the winner, and the final table is going to be televised. So WPT Turks and Caicos should attract some high profile competition!"

The prize package includes the $7,700 entry fee to the main event, travel expenses and 7-nights accommodations at Club Med Turquoise, giving winners a chance to enjoy the surf and sun of the tropics, as well as the thrill of playing in a televised poker tournament.

PlayersOnly.com's top two Gold Card Poker Tour Leaderboard Champions will also receive free seats to the WPT-TCPC main event.

Super Satellite tournaments began July 8th and will continue every Sunday at 5pm through September 9th. Players may buy-in directly for $200, or win entry via qualifiers held throughout the week. The top 100 players on the Gold Card Poker Tour Leaderboards will qualify for the playoff matches.

Steve Lipscomb of the WPT commented on this year's kick-off of the World Poker Tour, "It's important to continue delivering fresh and exciting experiences for our players and fans on both the tournament and television level. By adding WPT stops in beautiful locations around the world, season six is our best year yet."
