Online poker room FeltStars.com is set to host the next editions of the Online Forum Challenge with over $9,500 in cash up for grabs alongside main event seats to the World Championship Of Internet Poker (WCOIP).
The first event will be a freeroll tournament taking place on February 27 from 8pm UK time featuring a $5,000 pool for players alongside $500 in prizes for the best performing forums.
The second event will take place on February 28, also at 8pm UK time, with a buy-on of five dollars offering $2,000 for players alongside bonus prizes for the entire final table.
Each of the top ten players are to receive a ticket to the WCOIP, which is being sponsored by Felt Stars.com, while another $1,000 is being added in forum prizes for the best performing online communities.
“We are ecstatic to have partnered with FeltStars.com for our next series of Online Forum Challenge events,” said Jason ‘Wolf’ Rosenberg, President for Global Gaming Events, the parent firm behind the Online Forum Challenge.
“A $5,000 freeroll is something no one wants to miss not to mention the cash and WCOIP main event ticket prizes added to the buy-in.”
Kahnawake-licensed FeltStars.com stated that it would also host Online Forum Challenge events in late-March and April awarding bonus prizes including a free ten-dollar promotion for all eligible players alongside regular monthly paydays.
“We at FeltStars.com are very excited to have partnered with Online Forum Challenge and these two scheduled events leading into the WCOIP are going to be amazing,” said Ken Callis, an online poker professional sponsored by FeltStars.com.
“The $5,000 freeroll will definitely be a profitable and exciting game for the players. I am looking forward to see which forum ends up winning this event.”
