Increasingly Large Prize Pools

A surge in online casinos gambling and poker activities over the past year means that many of the top poker gambling networks are able to offer bigger tournaments with more players and higher guaranteed prize pools. There are several top poker gambling sites on the Web today that have announced increases in their regular poker tourneys – the latest tournament, on the iPoker network boasted a guaranteed $2 million prize pool – and actually exceeded that amount when in came down to the actual event. It seems that online casino poker players have several choices when it comes to high stakes tournaments – between Poker Stars, Titan Poker, and others, many sites are boosting the prize pools and attracting increasing numbers of players.

The iPoker tournament has ended and the top poker tourney winner walked away with an impressive $434,000 in winnings. The tournament winner goes by the screen name “lekimmd” and there is no word yet from the player or information on the online casinos poker player’s specific identity.

And as players are gearing up from more $2 million tournaments, the prize pool has soared even higher for this year’s annual ECOOP tournament. The ECOOP II tournament is actually larger than Titan Poker’s monthly $2 million event and will attract players from all over the world to participate. These players will range in skill from amateur to professional – essentially anyone who can cough up the money for to enter and qualify at satellite tournaments will have their shot at the ECOOP’s $3.5 million tournament.

Robin Steele, the Poker Manager at the Titan poker online casinos gambling site commented, "The $2 Million tournament generated amazing interest among our players, who competed for months for a chance to make it to the money. Now our players have set their sights on the even higher prize pool available at the upcoming ECOOP II tournaments.” The tournament starts in May and is an annual event.
