Bodog Poker Announces Mini-SOP Online Tournament Series

Bodog announced that it is launching a new online poker tournament series this summer that will mirror all 25 Holdem events of the 2008 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas at just a fraction of the buy-in. The Bodog Poker Mini-SOP will run from May 30-July 3, with each tournament held on the same date as its counterpart in Las Vegas but with buy-ins equal to just one percent of the actual buy-in of the WSOP Event.

After the completion of the series’ 25 events, Bodog will host a final tournament on July 10 that will award three seats to the 2009 WSOP Main Event, making Bodog the first online poker site to give away seats to next summer’s Main Event.

“We’re happy to offer those not able to attend the 2008 WSOP in person an affordable and exciting online alternative,” says Morris Mohawk Gaming Group CEO Alwyn Morris. “For only one percent of the standard WSOP Main Event buy-in cost, Bodog online poker players can have a shot at the Mini-SOP crown and three $12,000 prize packages including entry into the 2009 WSOP Main Event.”

The Mini-SOP kicks off with a Pot-Limit Holdem tournament on Friday, May 30, on the same day as Event No. 1 of the WSOP, the $10,000 buy-in World Championship Pot-Limit Holdem tournament. At one percent of the buy-in of the real deal, Event No. 1 of the Mini-SOP will cost players just $100+$9 to enter.
