tournaments take place? Playing with the big boys is a fantasy
for any casual poker player, and Hollywood Poker continues to
make that dream a reality for its members."

with the overall winners, will then be automatically entered into
the World Poker Tour Legends of Poker event at the Bicycle Casino
on August 27, 2005, valued at $7,500. In addition, the winners
of each tournament will each receive first place prize money from
the guaranteed $10,000 prize pool. Hollywood Poker is also providing
satellite tournaments at $2+.25 that would allow the winners to
play in the $20+2 buy-in Celebrity Shootouts at no charge.
