Americas Cardroom Creates a Satellite Poker Tournament Where the Winner Picks the Prize of a WSOP

May 12, 2016 - PRLog -- Americas Cardroom will be hosting a Sunday satellite poker tournament between May 15th and June 24th. The winner will get to choose between the Punta Cana Classic that occurs in the Fall or the WSOP 2016. The differences is the Punta Cana package is actually two packages for a total of four people who get 6 nights double occupancy in Santo Domingo at the 5 Star Melia Caribe Tropical resort including one $1500 buy-in. The WSOP package is a $10,000 buy-in and $2500 in travel expenses bundle.

The Punta Cana Classic has been picking up steam  in Latin America. The 2015 Punta Cana saw a total prize pool of over $800,000 against a guaranteed prize pool of $500,000 for the Main Event. The top two prizes went to Venezuelan native Luis Yepez who won $186,000 and Jaime Farriol of Chile who won $125,000. If the 2016 tournament is close to the 2015 Punta Cana, it should be a robust prize pool for hardworking players.  The tournament schedule is October 25th through October 31, 2016. For many in America, it's a great time to travel to a sunny, tropical climate like Santo Domingo. This package can suit up to four people! The other option for the winner is the WSOP 2016.

The WSOP 2016 is the classic poker tournament with winners pocketing millions of dollars. It's a annual event and makes poker stars out of ordinary men and women. If you pick this prize you get one buy-in of $10,000 and $2500 in travel expenses. It's a chance to match your poker skills with the best in the world. The great thing about the WSOP is new winners are usually created each year. It's a great opportunity. The 2016 WSOP runs from May 31st to July 14th 2016 with the first Main Event qualifier starting July 9th, 2016.

The buy-in for this satellite is $50 and happens twice every Sunday 6 and 8 PM , EST,  from May 15th to June 24th at America's Cardroom.
