"I've proudly worn the red and black of Bodog.com Poker since signing on with them in 2005, and I can say from years of firsthand experience that there is no better way to experience the WSOP* than as a member of Team Bodog," says Bodog.com Poker Pro Evelyn Ng.

With Bodog you'll get your travel, accommodations and World Series Main Event buy-in covered, as well as some spending cash, loads of Bodog swag, a dedicated Team Bodog player handler to ensure you're always well taken care of, and an invitation to the exclusive annual Bodog.com Poker Players & Pros Social – which has proven to be a uniquely amazing and memorable experience each and every year."
