Everest Poker is forming a team to represent the site in major poker tournaments around the world. Ten amateur players will be signed and receive $100,000 packages.
A series consisting of 20 qualifying tournaments will held at Everest Poker between Nov. 2007 and March 2008.
The tournaments will be played on Tuesdays, and the top 10 finishers in each one will go through to a live casting.
A total of 200 players will be interviewed by a judging panel at the audition. Everest Poker will be looking for talented players with integrity, character and passion for poker.
The judging panel will select ten players who will become a part of Team Everest Poker. Each team member will receive a $100,000 package covering buy-ins and travel expenses for eight major live tournaments.
"We have helped bring poker to Europe, providing amateurs with many learning opportunities and live events for players to improve their skills, so it only seemed only natural for us to seek out spokespeople from within the amateur poker community," said Jennifer Joyce, vice president of marketing for Everest Poker.
