Every-one knows that poker isn’t a team game, but this simply is no longer true at online poker site 888 Poker where Teams Poker is going strong.
Teams Poker is a phenomenal idea that is taking 888 Poker and the whole online poker community by storm. Whilst not hindering your game play individual members of the 888 Poker online poker community can get all the benefits of playing as part of a team. It’s all very simple and straight forward really. Members of the online poker community are invited to join a team. A team can be made up of anything between 100 and 1,000 players, and registration is through the All Games tab in the lobby.
888 Poker adds new teams and new Teams Poker tournaments each and every week in an ongoing process. Once you’ve registered for the team of your choice you then need to check your fixtures. The tournaments are just like any other tournaments except that they have low buy-ins, and the best bit of team play – the prize pool gets shared between the winning team. That’s to say, 50% of the prize pool is shared out between all the players on the winning team, whilst 50% goes to the individual winners. 888 Poker will calculate Team Scores according to the points earned by players, so with Teams Poker in some cases it’s performance that’s the most important thing rather than being the last man standing.
New players at 888 Poker can currently enjoy a 100% first deposit poker bonus up to the value of $400. The first deposit bonus is very easy to claim; simply make your deposit and the online poker site will award $10 of the bonus for every 100 Bonus Points earned.
