What does it take to win big at the World Series of Poker (WSOP)? A lucky
bluff? Great cards? What if it was just ... wearing the right clothes? Fresh
off Daniel Negreanu's second place $325,000 cash at the 2006 WSOP Tournament
of Champions, FullContactPoker.com (FCP) announced today the "WEAR THE NAME,
SHARE THE FAME" promotion, set to run throughout the 2006 WSOP. The
promotion offers FCP members who play in WSOP events the chance to share in
potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars, just for wearing FCP apparel.
FCP has announced that they will generously match five percent of Negreanu's
gross winnings and award it to eligible FCP community members. With over 30
events remaining at this year's WSOP, today's cash already guarantees
$16,250 to FCP promotional participants. Negreanu, a three-time WSOP gold
bracelet winner, will play almost everyday throughout the six-week WSOP as
he tries his hand at sweeping tournaments and winning the 2006 Main Event's
$10 million prize. At the end of the tournament, the five percent from FCP
will be split into two prize pools, divided equally. One prize pool will be
shared amongst online members that wear FCP branded apparel exclusively
during any of the WSOP events they play. The second prize pool will be given
to any FCP- apparel-wearing community member that makes it to a televised
WSOP final table.
"The 'Wear The Name, Share The Fame' promotion is FullContactPoker.com and
Daniel's way of showing support for the FCP community. We're thrilled that
Daniel's gotten off to such a great start at this year's WSOP and that
eligible FCP members have the chance to share in his success just by wearing
FCP apparel," said Henry Chu, President of Big Stack Enterprises. "Keep up
the great play Daniel and best of luck to the FCP community at this year's
World Series."
