The Tuesday Night Game with PokerStars and Bigger Deal

Join poker author Tony Holden and friends in a special $2,700 added tournament

Not long ago the notion of being a professional poker player was outlandish – did such a thing even exist? In his book, ‘Big Deal: One Year as a Professional Poker Player’, author Tony Holden attempted to answer that question - and the book became a cult classic in the process. Now 17 years later Tony has penned the long awaited follow-up - ‘Bigger Deal: A Year on the New Poker Circuit’.
Tony can now also be found blogging his thoughts on poker, along with many of his poker celebrity friends, at Biggerdeal.com.

At the heart of ‘Big Deal’ was the home game, a Tuesday all-night poker session between Holden and his friends. This was the game that punctuated and often financed Tony’s travels around the poker world. To celebrate the launch of Biggerdeal.com PokerStars is giving you the opportunity to play in Tony’s very own Tuesday Night Game, hosted on PokerStars.com.

This monthly tourney will pit you against Tony and the other BiggerDeal bloggers in a ‘friendly’ $10 tournament where the quality of the company almost takes priority over the prizes at stake. Your A-game is a must, as is the ability to mix it up with the banter: topics under discussion will include Tony’s books, poker in general… and anything else you might want to mention.

As if that wasn’t enough PokerStars is adding $2,700 to the prize pool, and those who make the final table will receive signed copies of ‘Bigger Deal: A Year on the New Poker Circuit’.

To sign up for the next Tuesday night game log in to PokerStars.com. Details, including the dates and times, can be found in the panel below. You’ll need the password to enter, and this can be found by visiting the Bigger Deal website.
