This is a tournament for people who have a blog. Wish me luck! October 14, 2007 -- 3pm ET
It's time once again for the World Blogger Championship of Online Poker (WBCOOP). PokerStars knows how important bloggers are to the poker community and this is our chance to give something back to the writers who tell poker's greatest stories. If you have a regularly updated blog, we're ready to give you a seat in a $40,000 freeroll.
In 2005, PokerStars was the first online poker site to start a fulltime blog chronicling the biggest action online and around the world. That same year, PokerStars launched the World Blogger Championship of Online Poker. Each year, the tournament has gotten bigger. In 2005, easywind won the event and a trip to the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure. In 2006, Daleroxxu won a seat in the World Series Main Event. This year, we're giving out $40,000 worth of prizes tailored to every blogger's needs, and we're sending the winner to the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure.
If you're ready to face off against your fellow writers in the biggest blogger freeroll around, see all the details below and register today.
