Big Money and 6-Figure High Stakes Adventure London Packages Picked Up at Americas Cardroom
The countless poker fans around the world who enjoy real money online poker regularly can be so used to big-money online poker tournaments and series that they barely take much notice – hence our quest at PokerListings to keep our community informed.
If you didn’t take part in the 275-event online poker tournament marathon that was the $40 Million Online Super Series (OSS) at Americas Cardroom over the last few weeks, then you missed out big time. Everyday life tends not to give people chances to boost their bank balance with life-changing sums of money, but poker is awash with such potential.
