got that mail too and its a great opportunity for US players to win some free money, starting bankroll and bonus money too. the site as stated is new and its on the merge network along with Carbon, Felt and other sites
You should expect bonuses like this after Black Friday. When the top dogs lost their US players everyone has an opportunity to benefit from Black Friday and this room apparently is doing it Good luck to any US Mobster in this tournament
