I think it's fair to say that this has been the best World Series of Poker in recent memory. The Series itself has been well-run without many serious issues. The changes in tournament structure has allowed for more play, and that may explain why so many well-known players have been capturing the bracelets. Not that this has kept amateurs and dreamers away--the fields have consistently been bigger than last year.
The food's better this year. There's more room between tables. Dare I say the coverage of the World Series has been the best it's ever been? And it's all leading up to one thing--the 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event. The pinnacle of poker, the game's ultimate showcase. Do you want to be on the outside looking in, following along with the live updates or reading blogs and magazines to find out what's going on? Or is this the year you fulfill the dream? Is this the year you play in the Main Event?
If your goal is to be playing poker at the Rio come July, you need to be playing at UltimateBet this afternoon. At 5:30pm ET UltimateBet is hosting our huge Main Event Giveaway, where at least FIFTY players will secure seats to the biggest poker tournament in the world. Players who enter today's $500+30 event will be playing for a $10,000 seat in the Main Event, $2,000 in travel expenses, and membership in the UB Army. And, who knows? Maybe a place among poker's immortals.
