PokerStars’ World Blogger Championship of Online Poker Bounties

You got this, right?

Dear PokerStars Player,

Just a few days remain until the world’s bloggers will compete in the biggest blogger freeroll on the planet. PokerStars’ World Blogger Championship of Online Poker (WBCOOP) is this Sunday at 4:00pm ET. The stakes are high. The online scribes will be competing for more than $37,000 worth of prizes, including a seat in the 2006 World Series of Poker main event.

To make the event even more interesting, PokerStars has just placed bounties on the heads of five well-known bloggers and personalities.

Bounties! When you knock out one of the “well-known bloggers and personalities”–Iggy and CJ included–you get an entry into the PokerStars $370 buy-in 150 WSOP Seat Guaranteed event on July 16.

All except Wil Wheaton.

Knocking him out gets you a hat, shirt, and fleece, inscribed with the words “I knocked Wil Wheaton out of the BCOPB and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.” That’s right, it’s not even customized for the particular article of clothing it’s on.

Strange things are afoot at Stars HQ.
