Exclusive Splash the Pot Freeroll

Over the previous weeks, we ran another fun promotion in our Poker Room. We were splashing pots in our cash game where players could win seats into an exclusive freeroll, with huge prizes up for grabs.

A total of 60 players won their way into the game and we ran the freeroll to start the series. At stake: we awarded three seats in the $25K SHRPO High Roller, three seats into the $5,300 SHRPO Championship, and three $1,500 SHRPO tournament packages ($1,100 and $400 seats).

First up, they enjoyed a buffet lunch with all the good food and drink they needed to fuel up for the tournament.

Ramil Abusev, Joe McGuire, and Alex Stathis earned the $25K seats into the high roller. Dylan Rayman, Aftab Shakoor, and Wendo Ma will be playing the $3,000,000 guaranteed SHRPO Championship and Frank Fraggeetti, Aidar Sharifullin, and Yuriy Kozinskiy won the $1,500 seat package.

Congrats to all; a great opportunity for our cash game players to take part in huge tournaments.

We can’t wait to follow you along that journey!
