Battle of the Bloggers

Posted by The Captain | Filed under Bloggers Corner

If you’re anything like my colleagues and I here at Poker From The Rail, being sent out on assignment to cover something you’ve got a passion for is one hell of a prospect. This is particularly true if “being sent on assignment” includes incidentals like airfare, accommodation, and a handful of cash. If this appeals to you in the slightest, then get ready for the latest Battle of the Bloggers writing contest.

Write Your Way to the 2008 WSOP for your shot at winning a trip to Vegas to cover the Main Event while it’s going down. Not only is Full Tilt Poker going to fly the winner to Las Vegas, provide accommodation from the 9th to the 16th of July, and lay $1000 in cash on them, but they’ll have the grand privilege of making daily posts on Poker From The Rail as our guest Blogger on the Rail.

All you’ve got to do is write two fictional blog posts from the perspective of actually having experienced the 2008 WSOP. The first of the two should showcase your mastery of poker journalism – let the powers that be see why you should be the Blogger on the Rail. For the second post, they’re looking for an entertaining piece. We’re talking about humor and personality here: your experience in the Main Event, action at the tables, winning, losing, and all that is the poker experience. Again, this is fictional – have fun with it.

Once you’ve crafted these masterpieces, just post them on your blog and then send the links to the Battle of the Bloggers Write Your Way to the 2008 WSOP. Just click on the link for the full details. We’ll be posting links to the entries here on Poker From The Rail weekly so you can stay on top of the competition.

If you’re ready to cover the Main Event and chock full of the true grit to make it happen, now’s the time to act. Get in on the Battle of the Bloggers Write Your Way to the 2008 WSOP and you might find yourself in fabulous Sin City as our Blogger on the Rail.
