The direct buy-in amounts to €320, a bit steep for many online poker players, even though the possible gain is more or less beyond measure

Anyone can win - thanks to satellites from $2

Of course, this shouldn't stop you from giving yourself a serious chance to go after this big one. Satellites run all day long, with freezeout satellite tournaments starting as low as $3.

Satellites with guaranteed seats start at €20. Each week, Paradise Poker guarantees a total of 10 seats to the €250,000 guaranteed tournament. Players really should keep their eyes open for the potential genuine overlay here.

Lots of action at Paradise Poker

In addition, once every week a €35 satellite is offered. A great opportunity for those of you who don't want to work the almost insurmountable odds of a $3 satellite, all the while liking the chance to save some of the €320 buy-in.

Since the move to IPN/Boss Media, poker action at Paradise Poker has boomed, not only in Texas Holdem. This old poker site is just as hot as in the early days - to say the least.

Game variety is great, there's good action in most disciplines, and you're bound to find the game you're looking for most of the time.

And no longer will you be bothered by people smoking cigars at the table.
