Titan Poker wins chance at ECPT

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

(PRESS RELEASE) – Jelte Kruijer, a talented poker player from the Netherlands, won his right to represent Titan Poker, the largest poker room on the iPoker Network, at the highly anticipated ECPT Madrid Open 2008. This wonderful achievement comes on the heels of Jelte scoring spots to the World Series of Poker, the World Poker Showdown (WPS) and winning tens of thousands of dollars in cash over the past eleven months.

Jelte Kruijer’s winning streak began in May 2007, when he won a $14,000 seat to the 2007 WSOP Main Event in Las Vegas through a Titan Poker Super Satellite Tournament. Since then, he has also won a prize package to the WPS in Costa Rica and finished first place in Titan Poker’s $100,000 Guaranteed and $50,000 Guaranteed Tournaments.

Jelte, 39, has been playing semi-professionally for over a year. He said: “I am very happy and thankful to Titan Poker for having such great promotions. It seems that I’m on my way to the top.” Jelte will be joined in Madrid by at least thirty-seven other Titan Poker player. Players are winning seats practically every day as the online Super Satellites are continuing until April 27th.

The ECPT Madrid Open is the first of many “land-based” tournaments that Titan Poker plans on sponsoring. While keeping busy preparing a sophisticated poker experience, Titan Poker hopes to power land-based events regularly. Jelte Kruijer is just one of the many loyal players who will reap the benefit of attending this elite poker experience.

In addition to the ECPT Madrid Open, Titan Poker is presently offering a wide array of tournaments to its players. Poker enthusiasts are currently competing for a seat to the Asian Poker Tour Manila which will be occurring this May in the Philippines. Seats to this event are highly desirable on account of the mammoth $1 million in guaranteed prizes.
