$10 million Grand Slam to be online poker's richest prize

By Christopher Hunt

What's the most you've ever made in four nights of work? VC Poker is betting $10 million would be, and be more than enough incentive to enter their new Grand Slam tournament series with the largest prize in online history at stake.

If you're a sports fan, you know a "Grand Slam" winner - winner of the four most prestigious tournaments of the year in tennis or golf - is in a class all by themselves.

Few players ever reach a career grand slam, let alone one in the same calendar year

Inspired by the "Grand Slam," VC Poker is looking to crown a comparable champion in the online poker realm, with four tournaments over four consecutive weeks offering over $20 million in guaranteed prizes and a record-breaking $10 million first prize to the eventual Grand Slam Champion.

Play starts today with a $50,000 guarantee tournament, and continues each week with a progressively higher guarantee: $60,000 on Dec. 10, $75,000 on Dec. 17, and $100,000 on Dec. 24.

Entry is limited to 999 players in each one. Outlast them all for four consecutive weeks, and you'll be anointed the Grand Slam Champion and handed $10 million. Win three tournaments and you could still score up to $5,000,000.

Finish on the final table of two or more of the Grand Slam qualifying tournaments and you are guaranteed to win a prize valued between $5,000 and $250,000, and a chance to be sponsored professionally by VC Poker.
