More to the Grand Poker Tournament
Online poker room Hollywood Poker sports a popular online poker tournament known as The Grand, and it will be grand indeed when the poker room adds enough fund to guarantee that there will be at least a million dollars paid out. Each month ends with The Grand, a tournament with a three day flight pattern, something unusual for an online game, but a system that gives players a chance to rest up along the way. Players buy in for a thousand dollars (thus the name) but qualifiers are running now for those hoping to get in for less.
