Peak Entertainment puts $2,000,000 up for grabs

Peak Entertainment announces two contests worth a million each: "Pre-Tourney Picks" and "Global Madness Ladder"

Willemstad, Curacao - Feb 27, 2004 - Each March, the eyes of basketball fans around the world focus in on the men's NCAA Division I basketball tournament. This year, Peak Entertainment, (www.PeakEntertainm ent.com/mm/index.asp) is adding to the madness by launching two free contests, each paying a one million dollar grand prize.

The first, called the "Pre-Tourney Picks" contest or "PTP", will award $1,000,000 to anyone who correctly predicts the top seven seeds in each region, as well as the region they will be placed, at least one week BEFORE the teams and seeds are announced.

The second contest, called the "Global Madness Ladder" is touted as the world's biggest and best global basketball pool and offers contestants a second shot at $1,000,000 if they can correctly predict the winner of each and every game of this year's championship tournament before the first round begins.

"We wanted to offer something new this year and that's how the "PTP" contest was born. As far as we can tell, this is the first and only contest of its kind," said Johnny Jordane, Director of Promotions at Peak Entertainment.

"Last year, we ran the 'Global Madness Ladder' and the response was tremendous as we attracted thousands of participants. With the addition of the 'PTP' contest, we are confident this year will be even bigger and better. Peak Entertainment recognizes the craze and hoopla that surrounds the men's NCAA Division I tournament for the world's basketball fans. We hope these contests help them to share in the excitement in a unique and entertaining way," stated Jordane.

Both contests are FREE to enter and open to anyone over the age of 18. Free pre-registration as well as complete contest rules are now posted at Peak Entertainment's website as well as on the web sites of all five participating Peak Entertainment, NV gaming properties - the Caribbean Sun Poker Room ( SunPoker.com), The Sands of the Caribbean Online Casino, Omni Casino , 49er Online Casino, and Three Diamonds Online Casino.

"It's just another example of how rewarding our online entertainment experience can be. Even if no one wins either of the Super Grand Prize of one million dollars, everyone still has the chance to win an all-expenses paid Caribbean vacation and other cash prizes," Jordane added.
