It’s not everyday someone can make something from nothing, but Colorado’s Alec Rail has the chance to do just that when the main event of the Card Player Poker Tour Bicycle Casino begins Oct. 11.

The Colorado Springs player recently won Card Player Poker’s Rock the Felt promotion, a series of free online tournaments, which culminated in an online final of 56 players. After lasting through steps one and two, Rail bested the final 56 players for not only a free seat in the Bike’s $1,100 no-limit hold’em main event, but free airfare, hotel and transportation to one of the most famous card rooms in Southern California.

The CPPT series at the Bike in Bell Gardens, California will begin Sept. 21 and last through Oct. 15 in what is sure to be one of the largest tournament series of the season. The total prize pool for the main event is estimated to be at least $500,000.

The upcoming stop will be the tour’s second stop at the Bike. In late May to early June of 2013 the casino hosted a 10-tournament series ending with a $1,000 no-limit hold’em $300,000 guarantee main event ultimately won by Thomas Beckstead. Beckstead earned just over $102,000 for his win.

The final two days of the main event will stream on Live at the Bike and the final table will also stream live on Card Player. The winner will be featured on the cover of Card Player magazine.

One of the largest poker rooms in the world with 175 poker tables and more than 100,000 square feet of floor space, the Bike is located about 10 miles south of downtown Los Angeles. The poker room is surrounded by HD televisions and guests are seated in comfortable chairs within a spacious, elegant, smoke-free atmosphere. Though the casino is without a hotel, there are a wide variety of accommodations available nearby.
