Every Texas Hold’em players loves looking down at their hole cards and seeing a pair of aces staring back. Why wouldn’t you? Aces are, after all, the strongest starting hand in Hold’em. However, some players have a favorite starting hand that is much weaker that “pocket rockets,” and WPT Global wants to know what those hands and is prepared to give two lucky PokerNews readers a free ticket to the Grand Slam worth $330.
Together with PokerNews, WPT Global is giving away two $330 tickets to the Grand Slam. All that you need to do is reply to the competition’s tweet, which is embedded below, with your WPT Global username and an answer to the question, “what is your favorite starting hand in poker?”
This fantastic promotion runs from June 26 through June 29, so you have plenty of time to get your entry in. Entries are limited to one per person, and you must have a real money WPT Global account to be eligible for the prize. A real money account is one that has had at least one deposit made into it since its creation.
Someone from the PokerNews social media team will randomly select two winning entries on June 29 and contact them. We will also announce the lucky winners in the PokerNews Discord Channel, one of the coolest corners of the internet!
