ExecutivePokerTour.com has recently launched and will be hosting a series of tournaments in Atlantic city, Las Vegas, and the Caribbean (hopefully one of the islands and not the sea itself). Don’t let the name fool you, While business executives get preferred treatment, if you want to play in this game you don’t have to be an executive, you just have to pony up the entry fees for the events which can range from $100 to $5000. The first event will be beginning soon, Oct 24th-27th, at the Trump Taj Mahal.
Some of the money goes to Project Life Saver - PLS has a bit of an odd mission for a major charity, but it does seem like a worthy cause.
The events will be televised on the dish network, so participants will get a little national facetime. This seems like an excellent opportunity to rub elbows with executives, pass out your resume to those dazzled by your mad poker skills, give to a good cause, and put a little coin in your pocket for the effort.
