POKER CAMP SET UP BY PLAYBOY
Moneymaker partnership will sharpen poker skills
Here's a chance for aspirant poker champs to sharpen their skills. World class poker tuition by some of poker's top players is the main attraction at the Playboy Poker Camp, which was launched this week by Playboy Enterprises, Inc.in partnership with Moneymaker Gaming.
WSOP Champion Layne Flack and Jim "Krazy Kanuck" Worth are among the instructors, and activities at the camp will include nightly poker tournaments with prizes of more than $100 000 and related events with Playboy Playmates, culminating in a lavish party at the legendary Playboy Mansion.
This is not a cheap package - with instruction for beginners to advanced players, packages start at $4 999 for the four-day, four-night event. The first camp will be held in January 2007 at Morongo Casino Resort and Spa, near Palm Springs, California, and registration details can be found at Playboy Poker Camp.com .
"Chris Moneymaker has built the strongest brand in poker today, and we are thrilled to team up with him to create an incredible poker camp such as this," says Sarah Haney, vice president, licensing at Playboy. "We've enjoyed such success with our co-branded poker products that we wanted to bring something more to the table for poker aficionados everywhere."
"I've been living a dream since winning the 2003 World Series, and I want to give my fans a taste of that," said Chris Moneymaker, co-founder of Moneymaker Gaming. "Playboy Poker Camp will offer a once in a lifetime chance to play alongside the best players in the world, hang out with Playboy Playmates, and compete for more than $100 000 in prize money. This will be the ultimate poker experience."
Moneymaker Gaming has joined Playboy in other promotional deals. Earlier this year the company launched the Playboy Poker collection which includes Playboy branded poker chips, poker chip sets, poker tables, poker collectibles and accessories.
