|
Mike “DarkKnight17” Coombs managed to get heads-up three times in Global Poker Championship series events, but a win and the Global Poker Champions Pack that comes with it still eluded him entering The Rattlesnake Open.
That is, until event no. 12, when Coombs navigated his way to a win and a SC$3,560 payday.
“It was great to get the win,” Coombs said. “This is the fourth time I’ve been heads-up for a series event. I was 0 for 3 coming into this so it was awesome to finally close one out.”
Coombs, who is an active contributor to the Global Poker forum and even blogs about his play on the site, had to fight back to earn the victory.
“I got it all in with A-10 vs A-2 for the win and he spiked a deuce to take the chip lead,” Coombs continued. “I was pretty determined to not let this one slip away though and I was able to grind my way back in front and finally close it out!”
In addition to the title, the cash, the trophy, and the champion’s pack, Coombs also received valuable point towards the Global Poker Championships Leaderboard. The player at the top of the leaderboard will represent Global Poker in a live tournament worth up to $5,000 in buy-ins, travel and accommodations.

You may be asking yourself “what is $weeps Cash and what is it about them that has made Global Poker the most popular new site among US poker players?” The good news is that it is actually a simple process which more and more players are using to play for real cash prizes.
You can jump onto the Global Poker website and purchase a virtual currency called Gold Coins using your PayPal account. You can then use these Gold Coins to enter into ring games, sit n go’s and tournaments. Gold Coins work much the same as play money chips on other poker sites, meaning that you can accumulate them and use them in different games but they can never be redeemed for real money.
As a way to promote the sale of Gold Coins, players are given bonus sweepstakes prizes by way of $weeps Cash with every Gold Coin purchase that they make. The $weeps Cash can be used to buy into the $weeps Cash tournaments and ring games however any of these that are accumulated or won can be cashed out through PayPal as real cash prizes.
