Party Poker is hosting a tournament for poker-playing fans of the NBA. On April 16, Dallas Mavericks fans will get the chance to win Mavericks' tickets and accessories. The free online tournament is available to the first 2500 registered Party Poker users requesting to compete.

A number of prizes are to be distributed, with the grand prize including 2 Dallas Mavericks season tickets for the 2005-2006 season, dinner with Mavericks owner Mark Cuban and four luxury suite tickets to a Dallas Mavericks home-playoff game.

Mavericks fans who also happen to be first-time Party Poker users can also take advantage of special sign-up bonuses. By entering the "Mavs25" bonus code upon creating an account with the site, players get an extra $25 to either play or withdraw. The second code, "Mavs20," gives players making their first deposits a 20% match bonus equaling up to $100.
