Last month's $6000 tournament at Global Player was quite a success I thought. (Of course, winning the top prize of $2700 might have prejudiced my opinion just a bit! :dude Great news! It's now a monthly event, starting on August 28th, and continuing on the 4th Monday of each month. As before, they're guaranteeing a prize pool of $6000, and it could be higher as they are returning 100% of entries and reentries as prizes.

competition That's the beauty of competition, it's great for the consumer, more choice, and I'm glad to hear that BJ21 are offering an earlier tourney. I might be able to play in it without staying up all night! Cheers Reachy
As a very low stakes player I'd like to add my voice to the chorus of appreciation for global-players efforts. I like the $5 happy-hour risk/benefit. Gotta love their free-rolls and the idea of a free entry in the big game as the top prize is marketing genius. Finally, video poker tournaments where I get to play hundreds of hands for only $10 if I want (I know it's a bit off topic but it's part of the attraction). Kirby
