LadbrokesPoker.coms B Day is Poker Player WSOP D Day

Ladbrokes Poker (http://www.ladbrokespoker.com), will soon deal its billionth hand! Wanting to celebrate this momentous occasion with its players they will run a Billionth Hand Freeroll tournament and give away 20 Ladbrokes WSOP packages to the top finishers in the tournament. The next two hundred runners-up will be given a second chance to play for a $14,000 Ladbrokes WSOP package in the $109 WSOP Daily Final.

To guarantee your invitation to play in this massive Freeroll tournament and a chance to win a Ladbrokes WSOP package, you'll have to earn 50 Ladbrokes Player Points on the day the billionth hand is dealt (00.01 - 24.00 BST).

Edward Ihre MD of Ladbrokes Poker said: "The Billionth hand will be dealt sometime during June, which is just before our 100+ Team Ladbrokes players head for The Rio in Las Vegas to compete in the WSOP main event. It's a very exciting promotion and at $300,000 is excellent value. We're keen for as many of our players as possible to celebrate our B Day online with us."

Advertising covering note

Notes to editor

Due to the current Advertising Act S.33, Ladbrokes Poker is unable to advertise foreign gambling other than 'lottery' to EEA offline medias.

Our lawyer's arguments centre around whether the ancillary advertising of a WSOP seat as a prize is 'encouraging' an increase in the use of WSOP facilities as the real driver is encouraging play on the EEA based poker site.

However, Ladbrokes can advertise foreign gambling (e.g. WSOP) to Non-UK offline media's as we are official partners with Harrah's for this year's WSOP's in July.
