Join the Race

Start your Race to the Main Event by playing in any of our round-the-clock Main Event Race – Round 1 Sit & Go Freeroll tournaments beginning Thursday, April 15th for your chance to win a free 2010 Main Event seat.

Players who win a Main Event Race – Round 1 Sit & Go Freeroll will gain entry to a daily Main Event Race – Round 2 Freeroll tournament. Players who go on to finish in the top two of a Round 2 Freeroll will win a spot in a weekly Main Event Race – Finals Freeroll tournament where they’ll compete for their free $10K seat at the Main Event.
