Hollywood, CA (September 7, 2006) - Win a trip to Barcelona, Spain as HollywoodPoker.com (http://www.hollywoodpoker.com) , where the stars come to play, makes online poker history presenting its most unprecedented tournament yet: the $5 Million Ongame Poker Classic. This poker history making event will start online at HollywoodPoker.com and finish in Barcelona, Spain, where the first place finisher will have a chance to take home at least $1 Million from the final table.
Online poker history has already begun as there are dozens of qualifying satellites available every day to qualify for the main event which begins on Saturday, November 4th with a buy-in of $5000+$200. For current and new members that play between now and September 15th they will have a chance to play in an exclusive "Members Only" freeroll with the winner walking away with a main event ticket and their shot at being a part of poker history.
Once the field is narrowed to 45 players, the tournament will be put on hold and those lucky players will be flown to Casino de Barcelona to resume their run at a guaranteed million dollars in a live final event on December 2nd & 3rd. Players will continue with the same chip stacks they had when the online portion of the tournament paused. There are many chances to become a part of this event at a reduced price, starting with the qualifying satellites that run over a dozen times per day.
