Everest Poker Room Sharing the Wealth

Thursday April 08, 2010

Everest Poker is giving its players that qualify for the upcoming World Series Of Poker (WSOP) the chance to walk away with a share of up to one million dollars in cash.

The special $1 Million Match promotion at Everest Poker will see the Malta-licensed domain match the combined winnings of all of its qualified players while at the WSOP up to a one million dollars. The site will then distribute this money equally among those that had earned their seat in La Vegas through one of its online qualifiers.

"Qualify for the WSOP with Everest Poker and share in the cashes of all Everest qualifiers," read a statement from Everest Poker.

"Last year, over 50 players received nearly $20,000 each after qualifying online for the WSOP main event with Everest Poker.

"Any player who qualifies for the WSOP main event or WSOP side event 54 with Everest Poker both online or in a live promotion will be eligible to receive their cut of up to one million dollars.

"We have expanded the $1 Million Match to give more players the chance to cash at the world's biggest live poker event. Why would you qualify anywhere else?

"The matched prize pool will be distributed proportionally according to which WSOP event each player has qualified for. The higher the buy-in, the bigger the pay out."

Last year, Antoine Saout qualified for the main event of the WSOP through Everest Poker and ended up finishing in third to take home approximately $3.5 million. However, this result was not just good for the 25-year-old from France as 51 other players that had qualified online at Everest Poker each received $19,607.
