The biggest names in the game are on site and set to battle for a million dollar first-place prize — a sleek 2006 Cadillac Escalade and a $25,000 seat at the World Poker Tour championship in April.

LATE BLIND - In addition to "regular" blinds, some games allow a player (particularly a new one) to post a blind bet in return for the right to enter the game immediately and act last on the first betting round. The amount of the blind is determined by house rules, usually somewhere between the last blind and double the last blind. It is frequently a LIVE BLIND.
