WorldGaming.com today announced a partnership with Sweetpatch TV. The new partnership will see WorldGaming.com working together with Sweetpatch TV to provide multi-bracket, online tournaments to FIFA ’09 gamers across the globe. The two companies will kick things off with a 64-man, $500 FIFA ’09 tournament to be held on May 19th and 20th 2009.

The inaugural 64-man tournament will be promoted on www.worldgaming.com as well as www.sweetpatch.tv and will be open to any and all FIFA ’09 players. The WorldGaming.com Online Tournament Technology enables players to participate from the comfort of their own homes and, of course as with all WorldGaming tournaments, there will be no dress code.  The tournament will also employ WorldGaming.com’s Spread the Wealth payout system, which will operate as follows:
 
Entry Fee: $5
Prize Pool: $500
 

• Round 1 Losers receive ZERO (this ain’t charity, you gotta have some skill)
• Round 2 Losers receive $8.75 each (win just one game and you’re already ahead!)
• Round 3 Losers receive $11.25 each (not bad for being half-way decent at FIFA ’09)
• Round 4 Losers receive $17.50 each (now we’re talking)
• Round 5 Losers receive $25 each (most tournaments you’d be leaving empty handed)
• Second Place Finisher receives $50 (Someone slap that guy and remind him he didn’t WIN!)
• Winner receives $100 (Hey, it’s not the whole $500, but you get all the glory, you can still gloat and the other guys don’t hate you quite as much!)
