UB Rewards German Online Poker Players with Weekly Shot at a Share of €50,000

July 15, 2010 (CAP PR Wire) — UB is launching an ongoing series of multi-table online poker satellites that qualify players for a weekly €50,000 Guaranteed No Limit Hold ‘em Deepstack poker tournament, hosted at King’s Casino across the German border in the Czech Republic.

“Our German players are an increasingly important part of the UB community. This online satellite series is designed to reward them for their loyalty and give them a chance to experience the thrill of competing for thousands of Euros in prize money in a live environment,” said Stephan Reschke, UB’s Marketing Manager for Germany.

UB’s string of $20+2 buy-in (with rebuys) King’s Casino Super Satellites is scheduled for Sunday afternoons at 14:00 ET, with satellite feeders running from as low as $3.30. Each week, UB will award the top three finishers in the Super Satellite with a €330+35 seat for the €50,000 GTD NLH Deepstack tournament that takes place every Saturday at 16:00 local time at the King’s Casino in Rozvadov in the Czech Republic.

King’s Casino is situated in the immediate vicinity of the Czech-German frontier near the highway Prague – Paris (A6), also known as “Via Carolina”. Rozvadov is located conveniently only two kilometers from the German border in the Czech Republic, making it a favorite destination for German poker players looking for a premium gaming venue to indulge their love of Hold ‘em.

Expansion into Germany is an exciting move for the US-focused online poker site, providing the chance for UB’s northern European players to get involved and get rewarded. The land-based Hold ‘em events at King’s Casino will also allow UB’s German players to meet each other at the tables, rather than just on Chat or across the virtual felt.

As part of the CEREUS Poker Network, Absolute Poker players can get in the ‘continental’ mood as well, participating in the online satellites alongside their UB buddies. At AbsolutePoker.com, there’s equal chance at earning a King’s Casino tournament entry and the same even shot at pocketing a share of the €50,000 that’s up for grabs each week in the live event at the Rozvadov-based Poker Room.

Check the ‘Satellites Tab in the UB or Absolute Poker tournament lobby for the full schedule of King’s Casino Super Satellites and qualifiers. Players still on the hunt for other ways to qualify should look for the Step 7C tournaments running around-the-clock, where the winner walks away with their own €365 buy-in for the €50,000 Weekly tournament at King’s Casino.
