There are several ways to qualify for the Grand Finale event...
We are
hosting a FREE online tournament once a month for the next 6 months.
In each of these tournaments you can win cash, prizes, vacations, and points.
These 6 free tournaments all build up to our Grand Finale Live Event for the WSOP prize package.
You qualify for the final Grand Finale Live Event by participating in some
or all of the 6 monthly online tournaments. This is similar to what we have done for previous promotions and everybody has been having a great time!
Here are all the different ways to qualify for the Grand Finale Live Event to win a WSOP entry and other prizes:
2 spots for the top two finishers in the month 1 online event (Dec 16th)
2 spots for the top two finishers in the month 2 online event (Jan 13th)
2 spots for the top two finishers in the month 3 online event (Feb 10th)
2 spots for the top two finishers in the month 4 online event (March 10th)
2 spots for the top two finishers in the month 5 online event (April 7th)
5 spots for the top FIVE finishers in the month 6 online event (May 6th)
1 spot for the "Bounty Tourney"
The 6 people that
knock Chris (FullTilt PlayerID: 'TheSimoneTeam') out of each of the 6
free monthly events will play in a bonus tournament. The winner of
this 6 person event will qualify to play in our grand finale live event. The Bounty prize each month for knocking Chris out is a $25 gift card...Good luck!
1
spot for the winner of an invitation only online event for those that
helped me promote this overall promotion (tell your friends!)
You
are invited to spread the word to your family, friends, neighbors,
co-workers, etc. that would also be interested in this promotion. The
only requirements are that they are over 21 and they live or work in Santa Clara County or
Fremont (trying to keep this local). Anyone that helps spread the word will play in a bonus free online tournament
and the winner of that event will qualify for our grand finale live event. It is a much smaller event than the regular monthly tournament. I'm only expecting about 30-35 people in this one.
5 spots for the top 5 point winners after removing all above qualifiers
In each of the 6 free monthly online events you participate in, you will receive points depending on how well you do (CLICK HERE for details). After
removing all those that have already qualified (from above), we will
take the next 5 highest point totals and those people will qualify for
our free Grand Finale Live Event. It is in your best interest to play in as many of the
free monthly tournaments as you can! You can check the Standings to see how you are doing.
Note: Since WhosDatDonkey (Lamar) has already qualified twice for the Grand Finale (by winning 2 of the monthly events!!) the 6th highest point winner will also get a spot in the Grand Finale.
3 spots for the top 3 finishers in the live "Top Points Invitational Tourney" (May 16th)
As a way to reward those that accumulate a lot of points, but didn't qualify already for the Grand Finale by any of the above methods, the top 30 point winners (that haven't already qualified) for the overall promotion (the 6 free monthly online events) will be invited to play in a free live tournament. Sort of a "Second Chance" event. There will be a prize pool (TBD) plus the top 3 finishers will qualify for our Grand Finale live event for the WSOP prize package. People that have already qualified for the Grand Finale will not be allowed to play in this event.
1 spot for 2nd place finisher from The Simone Team Poker Promotion #3 grand finale (Ed Stacy - ID:estacy1373)
1 spot TBD
BONUS: If you qualify more than one time for the Grand Finale, you will be rewarded! Anyone that qualifies more than once will be rewarded with additional starting chips (25% more) in the Grand Finale event. In the event that someone qualifies more than once, the extra spot in the Grand Finale event will be given to the next highest overall point winner that has yet to qualify (prior to the "Top Point Invitational Tournament").
ADDITIONAL BONUS: To reward those that accumulate the most overall points (from the 6 free monthly online events only), the top 5 overall point winners will be rewarded with 25% more chips to start the Grand Finale. This is your incentive to play in the online event each month and to do the best you can (...even if you've already qualified). Good luck! [Note: No player will start the Grand Finale with more than 25% in bonus chips]
Our
free Grand Finale Live Event on May 17th will have 27
players going for cash, prizes, and the winner will be going to
Las Vegas to play in the World Series of Poker on June 13th (plus $400 in traveling
expenses).
