To the delight of poker players outside of the United States, 888 Pokerhas just announced plans to launch another action-packed Super XL Series. While the dates are yet to be determined, we were informed that the series will take within a few months.

The upcoming Super XL Series will once again featured $3 million in guaranteed prize pools. The highlight will be a $1,050 buy-in Main Event awarding at least a seven-digit prize pool.

This is the fifth time 888 Poker is running this poker festival, with each one proving to be a great success for both poker players and the online poker room. Last year’s XL Series Main Event shattered its $1 million guaranteed prize pool and was one of the most successful tournaments ever for 888 Poker.

While the $1,050 buy-in for an online tournament may prove to be too expensive for all but the high-rollers, rest assured that there will be many other events at a much less expensive buy-in. Additionally, the site will be running a plethora of satellites and sub-satellites starting at just $0.01.

For those of you who don’t want to wait, you can sign up for 888 Poker through our links and in most countries receive $88 free with no deposit required. This is on top of the at least $300,000 in freerolls the online poker rooms hosts each month.

Additionally, thanks to the special relationship PocketFives enjoys with 888 Poker, you will also receive a special 100% first deposit bonus up to $600along with one free month of poker training at CardRunners or Tournament Poker Edge. Click here to get started.
