July 22, 2010 (CAP PR Wire) — With the ‘November Nine’ now decided, UB.net is shifting gears to focus on another high profile poker event, the World Poker Tour Legends of Poker at the historic Bicycle Casino in Los Angeles. The leading free play online poker site is hosting a series of daily freerolls from July 19th through August 15th leading to an online Main Event freeroll that will award the winner with a $7,200 WPT Legends of Poker prize package.
UB.net players have a chance to become the next ‘Legend of Poker’ while competing in the upcoming WPT event in L.A., August 20th-25th. The annual five day No Limit Hold ‘em tournament will crown the 2010 Legend of Poker and award the winner with hundreds of thousands of dollars in prize money, plus a $25,000+500 buy-in for the 2011 WPT Championship at the Bellagio in Las Vegas.
To get there for free, UB.net players simply need to perform at their peak at the tables in three easy rounds of online poker. From July 19th through August 14th, UB’s Round 1 Daily Freerolls run six times per day Monday to Saturday at 00:30, 04:30, 08:30, 12:30, 16:30, 20:30 ET, with the top 100 players in each qualifying for the Round 2 Weekly Freerolls on Sunday July 25th, August 1st, 8th and 15th at 14:00 ET.
Go on to finish in the top 100 in the Weekly Round 2 event to earn automatic entry to the Round 3 WPT Main Event Freeroll, scheduled for Sunday August 15th at 20:00 ET. The winner of Round 3 walks away with the $7,200 prize package that includes the $5,000+200 WPT tournament buy-in, plus $2,000 for travel and accommodation.
Log onto UB.net and play for the Legends of Poker WPT package without even spending a dime, and it could mean the difference between watching the pro players at ‘the Bike’ on TV or sitting beside one and being part of the live action come August 20th.
