<p class="mobile-post">On December 9 at 3:00PM ET, PokerStars is offering the winner of their
freeroll tournaments a real first- to be the first person in the world to
own the brand new James Bond car, the Aston Martin DBS, which is featured in
the new James Bond movie, Casino Royale. This car is so exclusive, it will
not be available until the end of 2007 and a limited number will only ever
be produced. Details about the new DBS remain 'top secret', though Aston
Martin Design Director, Marek Reichman, remarked, "This car encapsulates a
link between our elegant DB9 road car and the powerful DBR9 race car. It
signals an evolutionary development of Aston Martin's world renowned style
and elegance." PokerStars has leveraged their relationship as an official
sponsor of Aston Martin Racing to offer the much sought after and prized DBS
car, in fact the first one off the production line. The limited edition
Aston Martin DBS is valued at more than $200,000. In addition to the DBS for
the first place winner, the PokerStars freeroll has an additional $100,000
in cash prizes for places 2nd through 199th. So the total prize pool in the
December 9 freeroll will exceed a value of $300,000. Tournament schedule and
details on how many frequent player points are needed to buy-in can be found
on the PokerStars website. The relationship between fellow UK-based
PokerStars and Aston Martin was first announced March 18, 2006, at the 54th
annual Sebring endurance race when both of the team's Aston Martin DBR9
racing cars carried a special PokerStars livery. Since then, PokerStars and
Aston Martin Racing have enjoyed a hugely successful racing season at both
the American Le Mans Series and at the Le Mans 24 Hour race in France. In
all, Casino Royale's film release, the excitement, popularity and challenge
of poker, and the high performance Aston Martin DBS make a prize winning
year-end combination which is sure to inspire players all over the world to
become a Poker 007.</p>
