Best T. Hold'em Poker Tournament in Orlando
Texas Hold'em Poker is a multi-BILLION dollar industry. The Texas Hold'em Poker community is a unique niche market featuring millions of passionate fans, top rated television shows, and lays claims as the World's most exciting poker competition.
Fans of Texas Hold'em poker cover all demographics young and old, novice to expert, professional to blue collar. Each player has the same goal in mind... to be the last one standing! I'd like to capture that excitement and allow Central Florida's Texas Hold'em Poker fans the opportunity to learn, play, and win!* (*the toughest part)
Of course nothing I mention is illegal or gambling... There is no risk to any seminar participant of losing any money at any time. Gamming which I promote, offers no risk to the player.
*With gambling a player has the opportunity to loose money, the house has an edge, playing chips have an monitary value. None of this is present in my leauge.
I am going to hold a Texas Hold'em seminars at a venue (TBA) covering the basics, player anyalist, communicating with your bet, and the art of the bluff. The siminars purpose is to create a higher understanding Texas Hold'em in a fun,safe,clean, non smoking enviroment.
After the seminar is complete registered seminar participants will have the chance to enter an actual Texas Hold'em Tournament at no additional charge. (FREE FOR SEMINAR PARTICIPANTS) food,beverage, entertainment provided at no additional charge.
To create a "competitive" atmosphere I will provide new, in the box, top of the line,(with a copy of proof of purchase) consumer electronics as a prize for the 1st place Grand Prize (Champ will recieve MVP Championship package) ,there will be addional (10-15) highend consumer electronics set aside just as raffle prizes. (Ex. Playstation 3, Wii, X-box, New Washer/Dryer etc...
Each register seminar participant will begin the evening with a $5000 voucher also know as "funny money" (Prop Cash- no value, play money) which the player has the option to exchange for 5 raffle tickets immediately.
Or the seminar participant may opt to enter the Texas Hold'em Tournament to increase the amount of "funny money" a player has to exchange for raffel tickets.
For every $500 in poker chips "funny money" (which have no cash, or tangible value) the player accumulates, the player exchanges for a raffle ticket at the exchange rate of $500 dollars in "funny money" per raffle ticket.
The player will then place the raffel ticket into the raffel drum of the item that interest him or her the most. (Chinese raffle).
The 1st place winner of the tournament will receive a Grand Prize Championship package, along with a large amount of raffle tickets (50) to place in the raffel drum of the item(s) that interest the player the most, Championship Trophy,bracelett, and a awsome Grand Prize etc... 2nd place will be rewarded.
For affordability this a team play tournament.
Teams in Poker? Huh?
The object is still to be the last one standing. Team play works like this.
1st place team wins team prize*
*Team prize determined by point system: Points given to teammates with chips (not eliminated) as blinds go up during the tournament. Teams with the most members with chips for the longest amount of time claim team prize.
Team Examples:
Team "Chili's"
Team "Bank of America"
Team "Three Amigos"
Get creative
How it works
1. Seminars begins 1-2 hours before tournament for lasting 2 hours including breaks. The price of seminar registration enters the participant into the tournament at no additional cost.
2. A Player does not have to be present during the seminar to remain eligible for the tournament. Tournament is free once seminar is paid in full. As in any learning enviorment attendance is encouraged however, not required. Raffel tickets will be given out to those who attend seminar. However, the option is with the player to attend the seminar or not. All deposits and registration fees are non-refundable.
3. Teams of four pay $150 ($37.50 per team member) for the seminar including entry into the tournament, food & Beverage and everything you need to play.
4. At the end of the night an event Champion is determind by being the last partispant with all the Texas Holdem Tournament chips. Winner(s) are announced at the end of the evening, and winners must be present to win.
1st place in tournament takes home TBA Grand Prize (Possible Entertainment Gaming System, Braclett) and 50 raffle tickets
2nd place takes home Second place prize and 25 raffle tickets
There will be vendors for around the area showcase products that will appeal to the aveage Texas Holdem Player. If you visit a vendors booth you will recieve two raffel tickets (only takes one to win) if you leave accurate contact information you will recieve ten raffel tickets and if you purchase an item from a vendor at the event then you'll recieve 15 raffel to put towards prizes. So you can win even without playing good cards.
More specific details on prizes will be given closer to event date.
