Players at Intertops Poker (http://poker.intertops.eu) and Juicy Stakes Poker (http://www.juicystakes.eu) have begun competing in a series of online satellite tournaments that will send the winner to St Maarten for the $75,000 TKPT Caribbean poker tournament. Players can win their way to the Final in the three-tier tournament series by winning Step 1 and Step 2 tournaments, or buy in at any stage during. The Final will be held February 5th.

"This is the third time we've sent players to TKPT tournaments in St Maarten," said Intertops' poker manager.  "It's a well-organized event that attracts a mix of professional, semi-professional and amateur players. In addition to the Main Event there are lots of other opportunities to win some cash and for those that need a break from the tables there’s lots to do on a friendly, tropical island like St. Maarten!"

The winner will receive a $3500 prize package that includes the $1150 buy-in for the three-day Main Event and luxury accommodation at the all-inclusive Sonesta Maho Beach Resort right across from the casino as well as travel expenses.

Last year I did quite well playing some of the smaller tournaments before the Main Event."
