If you guys haven't noticed, Everest Poker is really starting to make it's mark in the industry. According to PokerSiteScout, Everest is the 6th largest poker room, ahead of the Prima Network, Boss Network, Absolute, Ultimate Bet, and many others.

Everest Poker has some pretty cool promotions going on right now. One is called the Avalanche:

The Avalanche is on the move!

We’re not sure if it was caused by an errant yodel, a careless swing of an ice pick, or some other circumstance, but the Everest Poker Avalanche has begun and it is running full steam ahead! Once it reaches the bottom of the poker mountain in September, ten lucky players will emerge with a chance to play live for the lion’s share of a $1 million guaranteed prize pool.

But do not to wait until September. The Avalanche qualifiers are going on right now! These qualifying rounds are designed to give players of all skill level and bankroll a chance to participate.

Players can begin their quest for the finals at any stop along the way, playing at whatever buy-ins they are comfortable and their bankrolls allow. For more information on the Everest Poker Avalanche, visit the Everest Poker website.

Another event to look into now is the Everest Poker European Cup. This is a FREEROLL event with a prize pool of €100,000! Below are more details:

Everest announces the launch of the 2nd Annual Everest Poker European Cup! Last year, this tournament brought together 100 of the best amateur poker players for a €50,000 freeroll in Barcelona. This year, we have made the event bigger and better, by doubling the amount of finalists, and doubling the prize pool to €100,000!

Just like last year, all qualification tournaments are FREE, giving all poker enthusiasts a chance to win their share of a huge prize pool and a free poker weekend with fellow Everest Poker players.

The EPEC is a €100,000 freeroll, open to all European poker players! We will be giving away the €100,000 at our live 2 day finale in the beautiful Algarve, in warm and sunny Portugal in October 19-21 2007.

200 players from eligible European countries will each win a spot in the finale by qualifying through our free online and live qualifications. These qualification tournaments will run from May to August.

Each qualifying player will receive a prize package valued at €1,100. The €1,100 prize package includes a seat in the Everest Poker European Cup worth €500, three nights of hotel accommodations worth €300 and €300 (US$390) credited to your Everest Poker account for travel expenses. (Everest Poker will book the hotel accommodations for each player.)
