Are you ready to Live the Dream?

Tomorrow, 200 Everest Poker players will arrive at the Palais Auersperg in Vienna and compete for one of ten year-long sponsorships worth $100,000. The wait is over! By Sunday evening, our 2010 Live the Dream Team will be decided.

Many of the Everest staff arrived in Vienna yesterday to prepare for this weekend's big event. Last night, after dinner, myself and our Japanese Manager Lina were lucky enough to visit the Montesino Card Casino (site of the Everest Poker-sponsored Montesino Grand Slam) with Team Everest's Voitto Rintala. When Lina and I were leaving, we happened to see Austrian Country Manager Martin Sturc (and Tanja Duhovich/Miss Austria 2003 and Everest qualifier for the 2009 WSOP Main Event qualifier)-- on a poster!

Obviously, we had to take a photo. We had no idea he was a VIP Bounty!

To all our players in Vienna for casting, we wish you GOOD LUCK! For everyone else, catch all the Live the Dream action and learn more about the finalists. Check back to the Everest Poker Blog for updates throughout the weekend.
