The on line poker world will be going off line in order to play big poker tournaments in the Mega Poker Series Madrid in June; Poker770 could be sending you.
The Mega Poker Series will give all serious players who play online poker for money the opportunity to compete in a big cash tournament off line. The Main Event will be a 4 day event with 2 day ones. The Mega Poker Series Main Event will get started on Wednesday June 13th and has a direct by-in of €700 + €70. The series will be made up of a further 4 side events including the NLHE Highroller Side Event and the NLHE Bounty Side Event which will bring the series to a close on Sunday June 17th.
The Mega Poker Series will be held at the Casino Gran Madrid, and the Main Event will be preceded by a Main Event satellite with a €50 + €10 buy-in and 5 seats guaranteed for the Main Event. If you would like to secure your seat in Madrid before you arrive, or in fact get a free trip there, you will probably want to check out the qualifying structure at Poker770. Poker770 offers its members the chance to play for Mega Poker Series packages worth €1,600 each every week. The packages cover the Main Event buy-in, €170 of side event buy-ins, plane tickets, and 4 nights’ hotel accommodation – essentially everything you need in order to make your mark at the Madrid Mega Poker Series.
For your chance at one of those packages you need to play online poker for money in one of the weekly super satellite tournaments. These tournaments have a regular buy-in of €80 + €8 and will be held each Sunday, until June 3rd, at 20:00 CET. Players can also qualify for the weekly super satellite through various qualifier tournaments which start from as little as €0.22 and run around the clock at the on line poker site.
