Aruba Poker Classic 2009 Schedule

Ultimate bet, leading online poker site, will host the 8th annual Aruba Poker Classic 2009. The exclusive tournament will be held at the gorgeous Radisson Aruba Resort, Spa & Casino with the same great island atmosphere as usual.

The event will be held from October 3rd through the 10th, as is expected to be one of the year’s most extravagant events, as the UB celebration is set to begin with 500 competitors and a multi-million dollar cut for the winning players.

Phil Hellnmuth, UB team pro member is excited too. He says, “The week long Aruba Poker Classic experience is what I’m looking forward to the most this year. Millions in prize money, more players than ever, UB’s 10th birthday bash, and unbelievable parties. I mean what’s not to love?” With large stacks of cash waiting to be won, the Aruba Poker Classic will be a happy day for one lucky winner. Buy-ins start at $5000/$500 to the main event, but smaller priced levels start at just $500/$40. There will also be daily Texas Hold ‘em games running, and other poker tables, as well, to suit everyone, from poker virgins to poker pros. The reputation of this event has grown to attract the best players from all corners of the globe.

The competition is going to be fierce, and the playing stakes are set high. The event offers a one of a kind experience where everyday Joes who play online will have the opportunity to play against some real poker player pros in live cash games. Just to drop a few names, of course Hellmuth will be there, along with fellow UB Pro, Annie Duke, among others.

Ultimate Bet invites everyone to come to Aruba for the 8th annual Aruba Poker Classic and experience a poker event like no other, whether you want to compete or just lie on the beach.
