HoldemPoker.com Launches New Members Club Where Everyone Is a Winner

16 August 2006

With the launch of Club Hold'em, an easy-access rewards program, the pot just got sweeter for poker fans who play on HoldemPoker.com. Developed by poker enthusiasts for poker enthusiasts, HoldemPoker.com is an easy introduction to the world of poker for novice players. The site enables players to sharpen their skills and grow their understanding of the game.


The new Club Hold'em allows players to earn Club Points redeemable for merchandise, tournament tickets, and the chance to win a first-place prize package to play at the prestigious World Poker Finals at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Conn., October 28 - November 19, 2006.


Each time people play a real-money poker game, including Texas Hold'em, Omaha, Five-Card draw, Seven-Card Stud or real-money tournaments and real-money blackjack, they can earn one Club Point for every ten points accumulated in that game. The Club Points can then be redeemed online.


"Club Hold'em is offering players rewards simply for playing the games they love," says Karin Klein, bwin spokesperson for HoldemPoker.com. "HoldemPoker.com players will not only have the chance to improve their game and play against competitors from around the world, but will benefit from a selection of valuable prizes."


Players can manage their Club Points online and browse through the Club Catalogue for merchandise and prizes. One of the most popular items is the chance to play in the first season of the Club Championship tournament, where players compete for the top positions on the Club Championship leader board, as well as the coveted first-prize prize package valued at $13,500, including travel, accommodation and buy-in for the World Poker Finals.


Club Hold'em members also enjoy full access to The Club Blog, which delivers the latest on world poker news, updates on the Club Championship, and daily reports from the World Series of Poker from "Flop and Turn," HoldemPoker.com's first resident bloggers.


Getting in on the action is easy; all of HoldemPoker.com's games can be played directly from the site and do not require downloads, so members can play from PC, Mac or Linux computers. To register, visit www.HoldemPoker.com.
