This week at PartyPoker, qualify for Oktoberfest for just a deposit, and look for a Cow in Germany with Tony G.

Oktoberfest Freeroll

We have already told you about the amazing packages PartyPoker VIPs can win to the legendary German beer festival, Oktoberfest. There is now another way to win one of two further exclusive packages to the event.

Either make your first deposit or collect 25 PartyPoints between August 15 and September 15, and you can win your place in an exclusive freeroll on September 18. The top two players will each claim an Oktoberfest package while there’s also a $1,000 prize pool available to players who finish high enough.

Tony G looking for the Professor and a Cow

Tony G has been really touched this week at the news that Yvonne the cow has become a big star in Germany after escaping from a farm. Hunters have permission to shoot her, but Tony is among the many campaigners stepping in to try and save her:

Yvonne the Cow

Naturally Tony could not resist the opportunity to stick the needle in to a certain professor:

“This all got me thinking of my search for the professor – where’s my money!? I couldn’t find him on the golf course and I don’t think he is roaming the woods of Bavaria. The professor didn’t run in front of a police car though. Would the Yvonne tactic work for him? Put a big stud of a buyer in a pen to lure him in – maybe the Tiger Woods of poker and a group of international investors will tempt him out of the woods? Who will they find first Yvonne or The Professor?”

Keep up with Tony’s antics, at the PartyPoker Blog.
