Inspired by the famous grand slam tournaments in tennis and golf,
VC Poker.com has announced the launch of its own online poker grand
slam tournaments which will be worth $10 million to the winner.
The VC Grand Slam series offers a total prize package in excess of
$20 million and comprises four online tournaments at VC Poker.com,
taking place over consecutive weekends in December, with each boasting
prize funds from $50 000 to $100 000. Players finishing on the final
table in more than one tournament will be eligible for bonuses of
up to $5 million, whilst the $10 million prize has been reserved for
the player who wins all four tournaments.
A spokesperson for Victor Chandler said, “Until now, the
world’s best online poker players have had to compete in land-based
tournaments to win a prize of this magnitude. VC Poker.com is proud
to introduce an event that not only offers online poker’s richest
prize to date, but also introduces a unique competition to find the
world’s best player in their preferred online setting.”
Grand Slam qualifying tournaments have already begun and will continue
throughout November until the first grand slam tournament on December
3.
Victor Chandler is also offering sponsorship opportunities to players
showing consistency in their play, providing them with the chance
to become a professional poker player and win up to $250 000.
