888-525-PEAKSunPoker.com Guarantees Uptime With $50,000 In Cash
Willemstad, Curacao—February 4, 2005 SunPoker.com, one of the largest online poker rooms announced significant upgrades to its poker room software and services, and is guaranteeing 99.8% Up-Time on its poker servers with a $50,000 Overlay Tournament.
“Our poker room now boasts increased capacity, access speeds, and near 100% availability,” according to Nick Melrose (Poker Room Manager) “…this further maintains our commitment to lead the gaming industry with a poker product that is there when you need it, 24 hours a day.”
“In January, we experienced such explosive growth in SunPoker.com, we’re now the fourth largest poker room network on the Internet…” Melrose continues, “…but such quick growth sometimes leaves room for outages due to server upgrades for increased capacity, and in the off chance there is more than 1.5 hours of downtime in any given month, we’re guaranteeing a $50,000 overlay tournament on the first Sunday of the following month.”
Melrose sheepishly adds, “Since it, (downtime), unfortunately did happen in January, we will be hosting the first ‘$50,000 DOWNTIME’ tournament this Sunday February 6th, at 12:00 PM (noon) EST.” Registration is limited to 1000 players and begins two hours before the start of the tournament.
An overlay tournament means that in addition to the prize pool derived from the $20 + $2 entry fee, the poker room will add the $50,000 of it’s own money to the prize pool.
