12 Average Guys Will Become Poker Millionaires

Sep 10 2008 - 12:22am

Up to 50 players will be selected to by the new Million Dollar Poker Club  to become Daniel Negreanu protégé's and be coached by him and 15 additional coaches - each of whom have won more than a million dollars playing poker. They include Scotty Nguyen and Tom McEvoy.

The players will attend week-long live coaching tournaments, one-on-one seminars and online programs over a period of two years to see if they can become million dollar winners. The new Million Dollar Poker Club will also satellite their players into million dollar tournaments all over the world holding at least 50 such tournaments per year. These satellites will send players to Dublin, Prague, Monte Carlo, Vegas and Macau to participate in everything from the Irish Masters, to the EPT and APPT, as well as WSOP to mention just a few.

It is understandable that this has not made the folks at Million Dollar Poker Club too popular with some of the more established sites. Mike McGrath, the Director of Marketing, response is "I simply don't care. Let's face it, there are almost a thousand poker sites out there and the leaders all have a gigantic marketing war-chest. The only way for a poker operator to compete with them is to change the rules of the game. I've joined Playsafe to do just that, to change the rules and create a true community poker site. The Million Dollar Poker Club is intentionally breaking all the rules, the way low cost airlines have rocked the formerly cozy airline industry. 100 percent commissions are just the start. We are also satelliting players into competitors' online tournaments and enlisting their stars to teach our players.

"Playsafe will break any rule that is not in the best interest of our players and if our competitors don't like it tough for them. Our only focus is our players and the affiliates that bring them to us. "
