Full Swing Golf offers $10,000 for an ace!
Poker players can win entry fee with a hole-in-one
LAS VEGAS, Nevada (June 28, 2010)—With only a week until the world’s largest poker tournament begins, Full Swing Golf is getting into the spirit by offering players the chance to get their $10,000 entry fee paid for with an ace (hole-in-one) on Full Swing’s world-class indoor golf simulator at the Rio Hotel, the host venue.
“Given the fun-loving nature of the audience, this is a great way to get players to try our simulator and who knows, someone just may walk away with their ticket to the World Series of Poker Main Event paid for!” says Brian Arnold, Full Swing’s Senior Vice-President. “Several top poker players have our simulator in their homes so it was a natural place for us to exhibit.”
For $10, each player will get five chances to score an ace. Players will be trying their luck and skill on the par-three, 159-yard 17th hole at Pebble Beach Golf Links from the amateur tees.
“We expect that many people who are outside the Main Event will try to get in by making an ace on our Full Swing Golf simulator,” says Arnold. “It will be very exciting if someone actually does it!”
As the worldwide leader in golf simulation, Full Swing Golf features a start-of-the-art infrared tracking system to supply golfers with the most accurate and sophisticated instant feedback in the game. Full Swing technology provides golfers with an extraordinary experience and precise shot information including yardage, launch angle, ball speed and carrying distance.
The Full Swing Golf Simulator is located inside the ‘Bad Beat Bar’ adjacent to the Main Event competition floor and is open from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily in the Rio Hotel.

Cool!
Although if the pin is tucked on the left there is no chance! LOL
I hope the simulator doesn't run like the RNG!
So who's set this thing up, your buddy and his company or Full Swing? If your buddy was involved it doesn't seem like he got much publicity.
With my shoulder these days I couldn't do it right or left side.
Something similar was at the Women's US Open when it was here. Except it was a paid vacation to the next US Open. After shanking my first two hits, I clubbed down and hit it well enough that bored video girl let out "This might have a chance".
It stopped 1.4 inches from the hole. I got a magnet :(
