It hasn’t really been a secret lately that Americas Cardroom are openly looking to take down the “most happening destination in online poker” title. Indeed, a lot has been going on at the site lately promotions-wise, like a couple of generous point races which have been cooked up with the room’s grinders in mind. That however, as interesting and intriguing as it is, turned out to be but the tip of the promotional iceberg. Yesterday, the site made another interesting announcement, concerning the introduction of a weekly tournament aimed at high rollers.
High rollers are a peculiar brand of online poker player: they’re not exactly easy to come by and acquire, let alone keep loyal. These guys are not afraid to put their money where they think their poker skill level is, and they’re not afraid to pull the trigger on a decision.
Create an account at Americas Cardroom now, even if you do not think of yourself as a high roller. Poker tournaments like the one described in this promotion carry some unexpectedly sweet value indeed!

While high rollers are indeed responsible for generating massive amounts of rake and equally impressive amounts of action, few poker rooms – with the possible exception of heavy hitters like PokerStars – have thus far figured to target them in such a pro-active manner. The event features a buy-in of $530 (of which $30 represent the tournament fees), and it offers a guarantee of $20k. While the guarantee itself may not be particularly impressive when brought up against the well-established weekly majors of the industry leaders, it is quite deceptive. There’s a solid online satellite system feeding the event, which doesn’t just mean that players will be able to secure their seats for much less, it also means that the prize-pool is pretty much guaranteed to put the actual guarantee to shame from the get-go.

According to Michael Harris of Americas Cardroom, the addition of the high roller event has been prompted by the massive success of the Online Super Series III, in the wake of which many players requested that a regular high roller event be added.
The $20k High Roller will kick off at 6:00 PM ET, every Sunday and it will feature 20-minute blind levels, and starting stacks of 100k chips. Late registration will be available for 3 hours after the start of the event. The $50k Sunday Guarantee may overlap with the high roller, but players are allowed to play in both events simultaneously.
Sign up to Americas Cardroom right now and make sure that next Sunday you’re among the players bellying up to the tables of the $20k High Roller!
