Spade club started the whole thing. owned by barry schulamn. based in vegas. you become a member and pay say $20 per month, and they give away 100K a month in prizes. they classify it as a sweepstakes to get around online poker laws.no cash games, tourneys only. The trick is to get in early. I was the 154th one to sign up for spade club, and they gauranteed 100K a month... HUGE overlay. I cashed around 4K in 6 months, thengot out when it got crowded. they send a check, but ya gotta file the tax form with them.
