COMPETITIONS

One of the most fun ways to enjoy gambling today, whether live or online, is through gaming competitions. The most well known gaming competition these days is the World Series of Poker. The World Series of Poker is a series of competitive poker tournaments culminating in a $10,000 entry main event. Due to the popularity of this contest, there are now big buy-in poker tournaments happening every month all over the world. But not everybody has the time or money to spend competing against the best in the world out in Vegas. So what does that leave for you?

Plenty.

There has never been a better time to get interested in gaming competitions. First of all, of course, is poker. Dozens and dozens of online poker sites are running tournaments every day. These tournaments range from single table sit and go affairs, where as soon as nine people arrive at the table, you can start playing, with prizes usually going to the top three finishers, to large multi-table arrangments with buy ins as high as hundreds of dollars and as low as $1. There are even freeroll tournaments where you can win real cash prizes without putting down a cent. Some of these tournaments offer prizes of hundreds of thousands of dollars for a small entry fee.

Even better, most online sites offer satellite tournaments. A satellite tournament is a small tournament which has as its prize an entry into a bigger tournament, rather than cash. With these tournaments, you can get into those $10,000 main events you've seen on television. With a buy in of only a few dollars and a little luck, you can find your way to poker superstardom.

But as exciting as poker is, it isn't the end of the story. These days every popular casino game seems to have some kind of competition associated with it. There is now a World Series of Blackjack, where the best and luckiest blackjack players go to try their luck. You can also enjoy slot machine tournaments, either live or online. Everyone receives the same amount of credits, and whoever can amass the most in a limited period of time takes the prize. There are horse racing competitions, sportz quiz competitions, trivia games and fantasy sports competitions.
