World renowned sports stars and a crack at a $10 million prize pool in the luxury of the Bahamas – got your attention? Absolute Poker has it all in their Sports Legends Challenge.
If names such as Emmitt Smith, Sugar Ray Leonard, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar get you all in a tiz, how would you feel about rubbing shoulders with, sipping cocktails with, or even playing against the owners of those names? The Absolute Poker Sports Legend Challenge is pretty much exactly what it sounds like it should be. Absolute Poker has lined up a crew of 25 of the greatest names in sports and will be shipping them off to Paradise Island, Bahamas in September, and you could be joining them. Oh, and if you thought that you’d get the upper hand, as these are not poker players, don't get too cocky because 25 of the greatest poker pros will be there too including Phil Hellmuth and Annie Duke!
The event will be taking place between September 14th and 17th and will include various casino freerolls, celebrity golf tournaments, sports trivia competitions and a $1 million NLH finale that will be aired on Thanksgiving Day on Fox Sports; in total the four day event will have an estimated prize pool of up to $10 million.
Of course, we're not just telling you this to get you jealous – we're telling you because you could be joining the stars with a package from Absolute Poker. The packages available include flights, accommodation, $500 spending money, access to various tournaments, and entrance to several events and social gatherings. In order to win one of these packages, you can climb your way up the steps to get a Step 10 ticket, or you can qualify via the Absolute Poker Sports Legends Special Giveaway – the choice is yours, but our advice; get there, however you can!
