The WPT Five Diamond World Poker Classic is just over a month away; UltimateBet is giving you the opportunity to play in the gem of the poker year.
They say that as one door closes another always opens, and so it often seems in the poker world where just as one tournament that has grabbed everyone's attention draws to a close, another begins. UltimateBet was amongst the most generous of online poker sites in awarding packages to this years' WSOP and with the WSOP Main Event ending this week eyes are looking towards the next big tournament, and UltimateBet are going to be sending players there too.
The Bellagio will be buzzing between December 14th and 19th as the poker world will shift on its axis and bow to the glory of the WPT Five Diamond World Poker Classic. Some UltimateBet players will be doing one better than reading about the goings on at PokerStop; they'll be partaking in the goings on at the Bellagio. UltimateBet Poker is running weekly WPT Five Diamond Super Satellite tournaments that will be running at 20:30 ET every Sunday with a $500 + 30 buy-in and at least one package will be awarded from each Super Satellite. The packages are worth a mighty $17,500 which will cover the tournament buy-in plus a couple of grand for travel and expenses.
Alternatively you could take part in the STEP tournaments with STEP one tournaments starting from just 10c and a package being awarded to those who surmount all 10 steps; alternatively buy straight into the STEP 10 Tournament for a quicker shot at the package.
The 2008 WPT Five Diamond World Poker Classic was won by Chino Rheem with a first place prize of over $1.5 million.
