What would you do for your country? Would you die for it? Or, perhaps, you would gamble for it? If the answer is “yes!”, then bring in four of your best mates, eager to sacrifice time and money and listen up!
It has been announced that five brave amateur online poker players are going to be given the opportunity to compete alongside some of the best in the business. The “evil” brains between the whole deal, which are going to test your strengths are supposed to be the two virtual casino “daddies”, namely PartyPoker.com and its Poker Nations Cup in Cardiff.
Moreover, the Alderney and Gibraltar-licensed site has officially announced that its VIP online qualifiers are going to play with some of their nation’s best at the third annual event in the Welch capital, in a sort of “national pride” defense strategy against the “enemies”.
It has been also reported that the cool tournament will feature six-person top teams from Germany, Great Britain, Sweden, Ireland, Holland and the United States. They’ll be battling it out in both group and individual competitions for a chance to take home the top prize of $100,000 and a sack full of respect. And each team includes one qualifier alongside five world-class professionals from the same nation with a buy-in of $5,000 each. Of course, United States, where online poker is still illegal, makes an exception! And if you add the $100,000 donation by PartyPoker.com, the total prize pool for the event in Wales goes up to $280,000.
Furthermore, each player is competing once to score points for their team. The individual match winner is taking home $20,000 for his efforts. All six teams will then compete in a ‘tag’ final with the size of their opening chip stacks determined by the points gained in the six heats. Each team captain’s judgment is vital as it is up to them to make tactical substitutions and call strategic ‘time outs’ and the winning nation will be the last with a player standing.
Remember! The last year’s event saw Sweden triumph over the United States in the ‘tag’ final while Great Britain took the cherry on the cake, the year before. I hear PartyBets.com makes Sweden three to one favorites to win again this year with the United States second with odds of seven to two. Besides that, Great Britain is third favorite, closely followed by Ireland and Germany with Holland having the highest odds at 13 to two. Who do you think will crack first?
