#FIFA World Cup 2006
In a play-off like no other, poker play meets football fantasy as gaming
enthusiasts compete for the ultimate golden tickets to one of the most
oversubscribed sporting events in 2006. Requiring skill, flair, speed and
dexterity, poker has proved it has more in common with football than gaming
tactics, with the announcement that sleek online poker provider, Purple Lounge
are offering up four VIP tickets to the much anticipated FIFA World Cup 2006
final.
The four tickets, which include flights to the event, gain the winners entry
into the World Cup final on Sunday 9th of July, 2006, in Berlin, Germany, for
what promises to be an exhilarating game. Indeed, with poker stars such as
Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi citing football as one of their hobbies, Purple
Lounge has raised the gaming stakes to host an exclusive pre-game, poker game.
The sophisticated poker site has established itself as the most fashionable
online poker venue, with a reputation for high rollers, glamorous players
including European royalty and film icons, and luxury prizes such as a Bentley
Continental GT. These latest dream-come-true ticket prizes therefore continue
the site’s dedication to player satisfaction, adding its own blend of poker chic
to this football extravaganza.
The online tournament kicks off on January 1st 2006. Two tickets will be won by
the sites top player with the highest rake between the competition timeline, and
two tickets will be awarded to the sites top affiliate who secures the most real
players between January 1st and April 30th. Terms and conditions will be on the
Purple Lounge homepage, Purple Lounge from January.
“Poker and football are two of the world’s most popular games, each producing
their own celebrities, and generating fabulous wealth for those players who are
truly talented,” explained Tara, the exotic cyber face of the company. “The
allure of each therefore holds great attraction to its players, with titans of
football such as Michael Owen being keen poker players, while poker players
themselves show great enthusiasm for the other beautiful game. The World Cup is
therefore of great attraction to our players at Purple Lounge, and we thus
sought to procure tickets to the world’s hottest football event. Not only does
Purple Lounge provide a sleek and professional gaming environment, but we tailor
our service and prizes to the sophisticated tastes of our players and
affiliates.”
With over a million tickets sold within 12 hours of the last FIFA sales period,
World Cup 2006 tickets are indeed a hot commodity. Thirty-two teams from six
continents will compete in the 2006 World Cup, of which, a quarter are World Cup
newcomers, and six are past winners.
