Everyone is looking to put a little spring in their step with extra holiday cash as they hit the shopping malls, and Ladbrokes Poker wants to help you pad your wallet! A whole roster of special promotions are going on now at Ladbrokes Poker and first up is the Aussie Millions satellites.

Even though the biggest event to hit Australia is just around the corner, you still have time to win your Aussie Millions seat at Ladbrokes! You can satellite your way in for as little as a €4 + €0.40 buy-in in one of five Aussie Millions Daily Satellites. Each daily satellite guarantees TWO seats to the €25 + €2.50 buy-in Daily Final Aussie Millions tournament. The Daily Final guarantees two seats to the €165 + €10 Aussie Millions Weekly Finals held every Saturday at 19:00 GMT. Win one of two guaranteed seats in the Weekly Final and you will be in the Aussie Millions €1,250 + €100 Monthly Final on December 6th or January 3rd at 19:00 GMT, battling for one of two €10,000 Aussie Millions Prize Packages! Direct buy-ins to any of the satellites is always an option – to get you to Australia even faster!  

The Aussie Millions is one of the most anticipated poker tournaments in the world and will be held at the Crown Casino in beautiful Melbourne, Australia between January 24th and January 30th, 2010.  You will be part of all the non-stop excitement when you win your Aussie Millions package that is worth €10,000! And that includes your $10,500 AUS Main Event buy-in, 10 nights’ stay between January 22nd and February 1st at the luxurious Crown Promenade Hotel and €2,150 travel and spending money.

Next up at Ladbrokes is their brand new 100 series tournament with a prize pool of €30,000 Guaranteed. What makes this event so special is that entries are limited to just 100 players, so the odds of winning are fantastic! The date is December 7th and the buy-in is €300 + €20, but of course you can satellite your way to your seat starting at just €3.80 in the daily satellite qualifiers. With starting Chip stacks of 5,000 and blinds only increasing every 20 minutes, players will have plenty of time to wait for those good hands!  And once you reach the final table, the top finishers will take home the following big cash prizes:

•    1st    €10,000
•    2nd    €6,000
•    3rd    €4,000
•    4th    €2,500
•    5th    €2,000
•    6th    €1,600
•    7th    €1,350
•    8th    €1,100
•    9th    €800
•    10th    €650

To get your seat in the special 100 tournament, go to the Ladbrokes poker lobby and look in the ‘Tournaments’ and ‘Special’ tabs and register.

Last but certainly not least, ten of Ladbrokes finest staff members invite you to their ‘Mystery Tournament.’ This is a €2000 added Multi-Table Tourney with a €20 + €2 buy-in on Friday the 18th of December at 19:00 GMT. Each staff member will have a €50 bounty on their heads, and all you have to do to snag the bounty is knock ‘em out of the tournament! The names of the staff with the bounties will be announced at Ladbrokes Poker on the morning of December18th, so you will know who to shoot for!

And just why is it a Mystery? Because they haven’t named it yet! Instead they are giving you the chance to win your seat free by naming the tournament! Just come up with a Christmas themed name for this Mystery Bounty Tournament and names for the characters (staff) that have the ten bounties on their heads. The panel at Ladbrokes HQ will choose the best entry and if it is yours, not only do you have the honor of naming the tournament and bounties, but you get your entry to the event free! If this sounds like fun, submit your ideas to crimbo-at-ladbrokes.co.uk.

Have a little fun this Holiday Season and grab some extra shopping money – in these cool events going on at Ladbrokes Poker!
