If there is any card game that comes close to the
stakes and jackpots befitting poker tournaments, it
is the skill-based game of
Rummy. Case in point are
the tournaments being held at the Web's top rummy
tournament destination - Rummy Royal. Another great
example of just how "big" Rummy has become is the
World Series of Gin Rummy. It's no coincidence this
title is similar to the mega-poker tournament World
Series of Poker (WSOP), for the World Series of Gin
Rummy has definitely reached proportions similar to
WSOP.
It may come as a surprise, but the World Series of
Gin Rummy has actually been taking place in Las Vegas
for the last twenty years. In similar fashion to the
"fueling" that has taken place between online poker
rooms and large brick 'n mortar tournaments like the
aforementioned WSOP, the World Series of Gin Rummy and
Rummy Royal have found a good partnership in one
another.
Helping to bridge the online and brick 'n mortar
rummy sectors, Rummy Royal will be sending two of their
online players to compete in the World Series of Gin
Rummy to represent Rummy Royal, and hopefully, to take
home their fair share of winnings. Hosting online
satellite tournaments in March and April, Rummy Royal
awarded two winners - screen name "Vadym" and screen
name "Asher" - with not only two seats to the World
Series of Gin Rummy, but also two all-inclusive round
trip accommodations to Las Vegas. Considering the
buy-ins for these tournaments was only $33, that's a
pretty nice payoff.
As for the World Series of Gin Rummy, it is scheduled
for May 17-20 at the Orleans Hotel and Casino in Las
Vegas. The next stop on the tour will also be at Orleans
Casino, and will take place November 15-18, 2009.
There's a great chance Rummy Royale will be giving away
more seats, so be on the lookout during September and
October.
