On Monday, 13 new tournaments took place in the XL Eclipse Series. It wasn't a day with huge prizes being collected, as "bezfrke" was the biggest winner after shipping the $20,000 Crocodile for $6,450. Still, there were 13 winners who all collected some nice money and were crowned 888poker XL Eclipse Series champions.
Most attention will be on Tuesday night's events on the XL Eclipse Series schedule. 888poker is cooperating with REG (Raising for Effecting Giving) for three events that will collect money for charity:
888poker is hosting three exclusive tournaments where ALL fees will be donated to a worthy cause without impacting the prize pool. Buy-ins will, as usual, make up the guaranteed amount - so 888 will chip in, whilst you cash out!
REG will be 888poker��s partner throughout this project and will help ensure that all funds will be donated towards REG��s Against Malaria Foundation. This special event will include an Eclipse 'Chip in' Super High Roller tournament with a $5,200 buy-in, in addition to $215 Mini and $55 Turbo versions.
During the XL Inferno Series earlier this year, 888poker raised more than $50,000 to donate to REG. Be sure to participate in these great tournaments on Tuesday!
Now, onto Monday's results.
