The world's number one online poker resource, PokerListings.com, is pleased to announce a new bonus package at one of Europe's busiest poker rooms, Ladbrokes Poker. The exclusive deal is headlined by $55,000 in World Series of Poker* freerolls that will ultimately send four PokerListings players, expenses-paid, to the 2008 Main Event. Monthly $5,000 cash freerolls and a $1,000 sign-up bonus are also included.

Curaçao, Netherlands Antilles (PRWEB) March 18, 2008 -- The world's number one online poker resource, PokerListings.com, and one of Europe's busiest poker rooms, Ladbrokes Poker are pleased to announce an exclusive new bonus deal for their valued players, headlined by $55,000 in 2008 World Series of Poker* freerolls.

By the time the last card has been dealt, four PokerListings players will be making their way to the 2008 WSOP* Main Event, expenses paid, compliments of $12,500 packages including the Main Event buy-in, travel and accommodation.

And, quite simply, there is nothing that rivals the experience of sitting at the felt and soaking in the atmosphere at a Main Event. This freeroll series - with very reasonable qualifying requirements and decidedly limited fields - is an unbeatable opportunity for our players to be a part of that.

"The World Series Main Event is, bar none," says Hannah Mayen, media relations director at PokerListings.com, "the most storied tournament in the history of poker.

"And, quite simply, there is nothing that rivals the experience of sitting at the felt and soaking in the atmosphere at a Main Event. This freeroll series - with very reasonable qualifying requirements and decidedly limited fields - is an unbeatable opportunity for our players to be a part of that."

The four prize packages will be distributed over two freerolls, set for June 7 and June 14, 2008. The first freeroll on June 7 is open to all players signed up at Ladbrokes Poker through a PokerListings.com link who collect 1,000 Ladbrokes points between March 1 and May 31, 2008.

PokerListings players who earn 2,000 points between March 1 and May 31 are eligible to play in both freerolls. Top two players in each event will win the prize packages, with a bonus $2,500 in cash also spread to a deep prize pool in each freeroll.

Also not to be missed in the new deal with Ladbrokes are monthly $5,000 cash freerolls and a sign-up bonus topping out at $1,000 at 100% match. Monthly cash freerolls are open to all PL players who collect just 100 Ladbrokes points in the previous month. The next three are scheduled for April 12, May 10 and June 21, all at 8 p.m. (GMT).

New players who sign up through a PokerListings.com link are also now eligible to collect a first-time deposit bonus of up to $1,000 at 100% deposit match.

"Our recipe is simple," adds Mayen. "The biggest sign-up bonuses, guaranteed, and regular high-value, player-friendly freerolls. And with fields for some of our five-figure events literally in the hundred-player range, there's just no way a poker player can find any better value online.

"We wish all of our players the best, and we couldn't be happier to give them the opportunity."
