Paddy Power Poker today announces that it will award a total of $130,000 during September and October in its exPLOsion cash race, which begins on September 7th. The cash prizes will be awarded on a weekly basis to Pot Limit Omaha and Pot Limit Omaha Hi-Lo players in four leader boards based on table stakes played.

The promotion will last for six weeks in total, with cash prizes of $65,000 paid in both September and October. exPLOsion is open to every paddypowerpoker.com player and positions on the four leader boards will be determined by the amount of hands played during the relevant time periods.

“There is nothing better than a loud BANG to shake things up on the cash tables!” said Paddy Power, Communications Manager for paddypowerpoker.com. “Hopefully our players will take a look at the $130,000 on offer, light their fuse and get ready to explode onto the Omaha tables – we’ve been stockpiling our gunpowder for months so it’s about time for the biggest exPLOsion of all!”

Paddy Power Poker today launches the September Surge promotion, which allows players to fast-track their progress to the Paddy Power Poker Pro online grand finals in October. The highest ranked players are automatically entered into a tournament with a €60,000 sponsorship package for the winner, with €30,000 and €10,000 packages to be won in tournaments for lower ranked players.

During September Surge, new or existing players can jump five C*A*S*H VIP levels in less than a month by meeting a Paddy Points target. C*A*S*H VIP rank is usually determined using the previous three months’ play and a full month’s play is required before players can be promoted; however September Surge allows for the Paddy Points earned over the course of the month (or part thereof) to determine promotion on October 1st.

“September Surge gives every single paddypowerpoker.com player the chance to compete for the very best prizes Paddy Power Poker Pro has to offer,” said Paddy Power, Communications Manager for paddypowerpoker.com. “We’re putting €100,000 up for grabs and we’d like as many players as possible to try and become the very first Paddy Power Poker Pro and win the big €60,000 package – a couple of weeks’ play will fast-track you to a chance at poker stardom!”

Players who are awarded Captain, Major, Colonel and General rank (VIP Levels 3 – 6) on October 1st will also earn the monthly bonus associated with that rank.

Last night’s European Championship of Online Poker IV (ECOOP IV) Main Event brought to a close a very successful festival for Paddy Poker Poker players. The highlight for the poker room was Domceee’s victory in the $2,500 NLH High-Roller Event, which brought the player $145,800 and a much-coveted ECOOP winners-bracelet. Another notable result was ace2ace234’s 6th place finish in the $1,500 NLH Main Event for $60,000.

Many other Paddy Poker Poker players achieved final-table finishes throughout the series’ fourteen events. In the first ECOOP event, the $200 NLH freezeout, shorty291 finished 7th for $7,500, while Sompas and Kerjean both reached the final table of the $1,000 PLO rebuy event. In addition, steviewondersdog finished in 6th position in the $100 NLH rebuy event to win $12,000.

“We would like to offer our heartiest congratulations to each of our players who cashed in the ECOOP IV” said Eric Booth, Head of Poker at Paddy Poker Poker. “It is great to have another ECOOP bracelet-winner within the Paddy Poker Poker ranks and some of the other players were unlucky not to have matched Domceee’s achievement. We’re already looking forward to ECOOP V!”
