PokerNews — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 22:39:45 +0000

For the upcoming month of November, PartyPoker has revived its popular Gladiator promotion with The Gladiator Returns. In it, players stand to earn $5,000 and $10,000 freeroll entries, cash prizes from $10 to $3,000, and free seats at next year’s Aussie Millions.

The way to play is simply…well, to play at real money games at PartyPoker – any tables or tourneys where you earn PartyPoints. Earn at least 10 points a day for at least 5 days of the month and you win a prize (in this case a $5,000 freeroll entry); earn 10 PartyPoints a day for at least 10 days and win a $10,000 freeroll entry (which you can also win with 25 PartyPoints a day for 5 days). Cash awards start at $10 for earning 10 PartyPoints a day for 15 days and go all the way up to $3,000 for earning 1,000 PartyPoints a day for 25 days. Earn 1,000 PartyPoints a day for all 30 days of November and win a $10,500 AUD ticket to the Aussie Millions, with $2 million guaranteed to the winner.

A new online poker player has joined Poker Hall of Fame Nominee Mike Sexton and gang as the latest addition to the Party Poker “Grassroots Team” that also includes Remy Biechel of France, Felipe Ramos of Brazil, and Ian Frazer of the U.K.

The newest member of the PartyPoker Grassroots Team is Bodo Sbrzesny, a 29-year-old from Bruchsal, Germany who has achieved the remarkable accomplishment achieved by few of reaching PartyPoker’s Palladium Elite status.

Before becoming a pro online poker player, Sbrzesny was a professional video game player (specializing in “Counter Strike”) and semi-pro tennis player. He made his first big appearance in the public eye by winning an online rake race that granted him access to PartyPoker’s Poker Den: The Big Game III, in which he sat down with $20 grand for a 36-hour cash game versus some of live poker’s best players. By the time he left the table, he’d doubled his buy-in, causing famed commentator Jesse May to declare that “a new star is born” in the poker world.

Sbrzesny can be found playing at Party Poker under the username: ‘Bodo_Feels_It’.
