How to get in the Bodog 100k cheap! And a small field!

Want to play the Bodog 100k guaranteed game and don’t have $109 laying around? How about if I give you a shot at it for just $5.50? What if I told you it would be a private forum game and the field would be very small? How about if I share the password to the game with you?

OK! I am a nice guy and I would love to set a record for the size of a private buy in at Bodog… And I would love to have one of the members of my forum win the grand prize in the 100k game! By the way, the winner has been bringing home a $25,000 paycheck in this game for some time now, why can’t that lucky player be you and with only a $5.50 investment. I like the odds on this one!

The only thing I ask is for you to go to the forum and set up a free membership. Once you are a member I am sure you will agree that we have a great group of poker playing friends, great cash added games and oh yeah we have private freerolls too! Not only do we have freerolls that are for all members, we also host freerolls for the members that play in our added cash buy in games! Some of the best freerolls ever played in online poker are Poker Player US buy in player freerolls. You see this way the serious poker player is there, not your average all in or fold donk! We have nearly a game every day of the week and give away more money than you can imagine each and every month! You see, “membership has is privileges”

Oops, almost forgot, I actually have two seats to give away to the Bodog $100,000 Guaranteed in two private poker games at Bodog Poker in November! Thank you for reading this far asnd as promised, here are the details for game one at Bodog this month:
