WSOP Sponsor Offers Second Chance Tournament
There are few things as frustrating as busting “on the bubble” of a poker tournament, meaning a player is out of the event before earning any money, and in an event that costs $10k to enter, making the money is an important accomplishment. For the nine players just before the bubble broke at the 2007 WSOP, there will be a second chance, thanks to the event’s sponsor, Milwaukee’s Best Light. The beer company will host the Main Event’s second annual Bubble Playoff, with the top prize being a seat at the 2008 WSOP Main Event.
