Las Vegas & Minong, Wis. (March 29, 2010) — Jack Link’s Beef Jerky, the multiyear presenting sponsor of the World Series of Poker (WSOP), today announced that nearly 600,000 games of Bluffin’ With Sasquatch poker have been played, as part of the themed sweepstakes and instant-win promotion, to win a coveted seat at the 2010 World Series of Poker Tournament in Las Vegas. Jack Link’s enthusiasts and poker fans have just a few more days to play Texas Hold ‘Em against Sasquatch, the star of the now-iconic Messin’ with Sasquatch campaign, featuring adventure seekers playing sophomoric pranks on an unsuspecting Sasquatch.

At BluffinWithSasquatch.com, Sasquatch "hosts" online poker games at nature’s toughest poker table. The odds are still in any poker buff’s favor to bluff Sasquatch and get a chance at winning the grand prize: a seat at the 2010 World Series of Poker tournament — a package worth $10,000, including airfare for two, hotel and spending money. The promotion ends
April 8, 2010.

"Bluffin’ With Sasquatch is designed to bring friends of Sasquatch and poker buffs together," said Jeff LeFever, director of marketing, Jack Link’s Beef Jerky. "We anticipate campaign followers will go ‘all in’ and feed their wild side — playing poker against the world’s most elusive creature."

"Poker should always be fun," said World Series of Poker Vice President Ty Stewart. "We're glad Jack Link’s is celebrating its presenting sponsorship by offering the Bluffin’ With Sasquatch promotion and giving a fan the opportunity to get a special seat at the 2010 table."

Thousands of additional prizes will be awarded — including poker sets, cards, T-shirts, hats and of course, Jack Link’s products. Sweepstakes codes can be found on specially marked packages of Jack Link’s products. There is no purchase necessary. This sweepstakes and instant-win promotion are void where prohibited.
