Internet Poker

Lately, my son has been diligent about bring the latest Toys R' Us ad to my attention while eating chocolate chip pancakes and bacon during Sunday morning breakfast time. Next week we will pay homage to his favorite transformers with Transformer cake, Transformer party bags for the kids, and wiping the sloppy joes off our faces with Transformer napkins. A fifth birthday should be memorable one, until the next biggest toy/cartoon series comes along.

Someone else will be celebrating a fifth birthday soon and the recipient of the birthday gift will enjoy the memories much longer then son's two second attention span. Tao of Poker is proud to announce a fifth year birthday celebration, and Dr. Pauly is providing the gift! Below is the description of the PokerStars tournament that will award a $5,000 seat at the Borgata Poker Open plus a two night stay at the casino!

Here are the specific details…
1. Tao of Poker birthday tournament is open to all readers.
2. No chops whatsoever for the Borgata Package ($5,000 seat + two nights).
3. The 5K seat is a must play…. meaning you cannot take the cash. You have to play the event on September 12th.
4. Package does not include transportation. You have to find your own way to Atlantic City. So if you live in Sweden and win the seat, you are responsible for airfare.
5. Most importantly… have fun.
I should clarify something… there will be normal prize money. The Borgata Package is in addition to the regular prize pool. So the first place winner has a shot at a decent payday in addition to a $5,000 seat and two nights at the Borgata.

The Tao of Poker birthday tournament will feature some of your favorite bloggers and Tao of Poker characters from past, present, and future. Perhaps even a pro or two might show up.

Mark your calendars. August 5th. 9pm ET. PokerStars. Tao of Poker 5th Birthday Celebration. One faithful Tao of Poker reader will walk away with a $5,000 seat to a Borgata Poker Open tournament plus two nights in the swanky Borgata Hotel & Spa which has the most comfortable beds in the world.
