www.MonteCarloGrandResort.com(PRWEB) July 21, 2004 -- The best
online poker websites have become the training grounds for the
world's top poker players and future WPT and WSOP stars. 2003 World
Series Of Poker Champion Chris Moneymaker shocked the Las Vegas
establishment and world with his domination of the 2003 ESPN WSOP
Championships at Binion's Horseshoe Casino in downtown Las Vegas,
but his Cinderella story is anything but a rags to riches tale.
Chris Moneymaker honed his skills and paid his dues like so many
other modern day players that participate daily and even nightly in
the best online poker tournaments, internet satellite competitions
and world wide poker websites. Poker websites such as
www.rockandrollusa.com/VirtualCityPoker.htm provide a great
training ground for future world class players and more honed
competitors, while smaller more intimate online poker rooms like
www.rockandrollusa.com/GoldenTigerPoker.htm are great for those
that want a more relaxed environment.                    Some of
the web's top-rated poker, casino and gaming websites are listed
at: www.MonteCarloGrandResort.com The development of new realistic
gaming technologies, such as Viper gaming software have also helped
the popularity of online poker and other computerized casino games.
Chris Moneymaker, the improbable 2003 World Champion of the World
Series Of Poker is a Tennessee restaurant controller that won his
entry stake to the 2003 World Series of Poker by winning a $40
online poker tournament. Moneymaker then sold two 20 percent stakes
in his WSOP championship bid to his father, Mike Moneymaker, and to
his friend, David Gamble, for $2,000 each. Chris Moneymaker used
the $4,000 to finance his Las Vegas trip for the 2003 World Series
of Poker at Binion's Horseshoe Casino in Downtown Las Vegas. With a
story line and name that seem more like a movie script than
reality, Moneymaker has inspired the imagination of online poker
players around the globe. One tournament official commented that
"when a completely unknown player dominates the world's best at the
sport's premiere event, everyone's bound to take notice." One
observer of the large crowds at Binion's for the 2004 World Series
of Poker event remarked, "Golf wasn't cool until Tiger Woods came
along and poker wasn't hip until Chris Moneymaker." Mike Moneymaker
and Gamble each had interest in a half-million dollar share for
their $2,000 investments. Many of the up-and-coming poker players
are cutting their competitive teeth with online poker tournaments
and website gaming. The internet has fostered a huge growth in the
popularity of this sport and ESPN's regular televised coverage of
the World Series of Poker hasn't hurt either. The record-shattering
2004 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas drew more than 34,000
players via qualifying online satellite tournaments, internet
events and website poker championships. The rising popularity of
poker reflects the meteoric rise of online poker and poker as a
household televised sport. Participation at the 2004 World Series
Of Poker event jumped to 2,576 paid entries from 839 entries in
2003, and 631 paid entries in 2002. Tournament organizers expect
the 2005 World Series of Poker to attract three times as many paid
entrants as this year. That would mean over 7,500 paid entrants in
2005, which would be a ten-fold increase in just three years. The
success of Chris Moneymaker and other phenomenal online poker
players in the World Series of Poker and other WPT events has
inspired even more internet poker players to fully embrace this
sport. Many of the gaming and poker websites have great incentive
bonuses for initial signups such as a $30 bonus with $30 deposited
into your new account, or even amounts or $400 or $777 dollars for
larger deposit amounts. Many of the poker websites listed at the
bottom of MonteCarloGrandResort.com have astonishing bonuses for
initial account activation. One website even deposits $10 on your
behalf for just downloading their gaming software. They will then
add another $40, once you have opened an account and deposited
$100. MonteCarloGrandResort.com has several casino packages
available for very small account activation amounts, so you can
check each of their listed casino packages to find the best
incentives for your budget. www.MonteCarloGrandResort.com (Top
