Bodog 2010 WSOP Team

The team that will support the Bodog (www.bodog.com) name in coming weeks is beginning to take shape. As the World Series of Poker continues in Las Vegas, the team that will represent the brand is beginning to shape up.

All 32 players currently appointed to Team Bodog are from the United States, with six of the players from Chicago specifically. Four states – New York, New Jersey, California and Arizona – all have two players on Team Bodog. The online players are joined by long-time Bodog pros Amanda Musemeci and Evelyn Ng.

This weekend, more than 10 additional players might join the team. Through the Bodog website, players can try to qualify to become part of the team. The site will send 10 winners to Las Vegas for the World Series Main Event. To qualify, players must play in the Bodog Private Main Event Qualifier on Saturday to get entry into the Sunday final. Cost is just $5 to enter the tournament.

If players don’t qualify during the Saturday tournament, they can buy into the Sunday tournament for $500. The prize package for each of the top 10 finishers is worth $12,000 and includes $10,000 entry into the WSOP Main Event and $2,000 in travel expenses.
