Dream Team Poker Event

Thanks to its exploding popularity, a Dream Team Poker event has been added to the schedule for the 2009 WSOP. Scheduled to take place at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino July 12-13, the event won’t award a WSOP bracelet to the winner but will give those who bust out of the Main Event a chance to play a little more poker and have some more fun in Vegas this summer.

The buy-in for the event is $560 per player, or $1,680 per team and the first 300 teams to register will receive personalized jerseys.

“The WSOP and the Rio have really shown their commitment to the players in continuing to innovate and try new concepts,” said Daniel Delshad, CEO of Dream Team Gaming. “Bringing our brand to the Rio during the WSOP and onto the most hollowed ground in the sport is a powerful way to introduce Dream Team Poker to the world.”

Teams can register online at DreamTeamPoker.com to get in on the action. However, if you want a shot at a WSOP bracelet and poker immortality this summer, then check out Bodog Poker’s $12,000 WSOP packages and qualify online for the 2009 WSOP for as little as $1.
