Head over to 888poker this weekend, bring your A-game to the table, and play your way into Day 2 of the $1 million Super Storm event.

Fancy a free seat to the Super Storm?
Day 1 ends at the end of the 11th level. Anyone with chips in front of them at this point progresses to Day 2 on March 22.
More than 5,400 players have entered so far and 1,053 of them have made it through to Day 2. Prizes look set to be huge, will you get your hands on one of them?
